My sister brought home a little grey and white beautiful girl. If you believe that a cat can smile, as I do, she had the most beautiful smile of all. She was supposed to be my mother's cat, but quickly became mine.
She was not demanding, but always loving. She would wait at the window when I left, still waiting when I came home. Always playful!! Boy do I miss her tail chasing and just attacking nothing!
She became my girl; she was very ill and I made the decision to euthanize 09/09/2010. she was just 10 years of age. I still come home, expecting to see her waiting.
I wish that I could have done more to make her healthy, but I was with her when she died. It was the hardest yet most rewarding thing that I have ever done.
My whole family; myself, my husband, my two boys and her "kitty sisters," Tabatha and Jenny miss her and love her.
I just pray that I made her as happy as she made us.
