View Full Version : My Little Cat

You made me so happy running up and down the hallway in the middle of the night with your boots on. How could such a tiny cat make so much noise? I loved how you knew it was time to get up, even if I had had a late night. You always knew when there was a lap - even if there wasn't. :) You were my petite chat, so tiny. I called you my miniature cat. I always wondered how such a little thing could have such a big voice.

You were my little porta cat, happy to be lugged around, my soft little fluff ball with the big loud purr. We had 17 wonderful years together. I am so happy you wandered into our apartment all those years ago and refused to leave. All you wanted was to be loved, and you were.

I will miss the paw on my leg to get my attention, the "help" with making the bed, the hanging off doorknobs because you wanted to be outside. The "look" when you weren't getting what you wanted.

Your little paws filled the empty spaces when Bozo and Greta passed away. I'm glad for you that your life was good right up to the end. I just wish it could have been longer. I don't know how those empty spaces will get filled now.

I'm sorry, Veronica. Lucky cat, to have you, who appreciated her for just who she was.

Hugs to you and little cat, V. It's always so sad when our four footed friends leave us, and it always seems like they couldn't stay here long enough.

So sorry Veronica - it is so hard to lose a little loved kitty. When they are with you for 17 years, they are so much a part of the family

Veronica, just know I'll be thinking of you. Maybe you'll smile a little knowing that last night Izaak and I had an argument because he wasn't about to go out where all this weird white stuff was falling on his head. It's OK to walk in it but not have it fall on your head. He had to cross his legs all night. Silly dog. :)

So sorry for your loss, little Erin will be at the Rainbow Bridge to welcome your little cat, and as they were small, I'm sure she'll show her the best places to hide ready to play Slap-the-Foot on unsuspecting passers by.

Bonnie and Herald send loud purrs your way so you won't be too lonely.

Veronica, so sorry you're hurting with the loss of a great cat.

In August, when I sold my mom & dad's house...the one they had for 40 years and we all grew up in, I was thinking about all the great cats buried in the yard. Five, actually. And then, there is the one who is fifteen years old and still with me, making yet another move.

I understand about having a long-time, wonderful, cat friend, and what it means to lose them.

Take care of yourself! ((hug))

Veronica... just last night I pulled out the post I had done here when my old Pug, Winston, died. I printed it out back then because the support and condolences from everyone meant so much to me. I'm sorry to know you're going thru the pain of such a loss now too. Our pets are so much a part of our family and when they die it leaves an empty spot there inside us.

You have my deepest condolences.

My Mutt, who loved "her" cats when I had cats, sends a wag and a play-bow to porta-cat too.

Veronica, I'm so sorry for your loss for I know the pain is tremendous at this moment. I hope you know in your heart what a wonderful life you gave your buddy - lots of attention, good food, good medical care and an endless supply of love all of which were repaid with head butts, paws, purrs and snuggles.
