We adopted you and you sister, Caley from Noah's Ark in June 2004. You were such beauties. We lost Caley way too young at 7-1/2 years old to skin cancer. I never even knew animals could get skin cancer. You would hang out with Mama Case then after we lost her you didn't seem to want to be with any other kitties, so we put you in our bedroom. Every time daddy or I would walk in, you did that special powerful loud meow that we loved so much. You looked forward to the kitty treats at night and curling up sleeping with mommy. Boy, you threw off a lot of heat for a small kitty. In the morning, you liked to head bump me before I got up.

You dealt with all the dogs that came in the bedroom for 'nite-nites' and Walter who always got on your nerves, but you didn't take his crap.

You started to lose weight and put you on Thyroid meds for a bit then you lost even more weight and was declining. We took you to see Dr. Michelle, and you were in renal failure and anemic. We tried to help you for about a month, and I fed you often. You had good days and bad days. Even when you had the bad days, you still did that special loud meow when we walked in the room. You fought so hard. I could tell you weren't ready to leave us just yet. You finally got tired and left us for the Rainbow Bridge at 17 years old. I hope you were happy here with us and loved your home. I hope all you furry brothers/sisters/aunts/uncles met you at the bridge and that you love your new home.

Please look down on us every now and then. We will be together again some day. Until then, enjoy your beautiful new home. We will always love and miss you.

Love,

Mommy, Daddy, and all your furry brothers/sisters

5/29/22 - Hi sweet girl, One (1) year ago on the 25th we lost you. So sorry this is late. I hope you're happy in your new home and you're all together. I keep wondering to myself if you were, in fact, really happy in the bedroom all those years. I had never really thought about it till after you were gone. I should have at least kept the gate open for you. I'm so sorry if that's what you really wanted. I know sometimes I didn't like you leaning on me in the bed or the head bumps, but I'd give anything for you to do them to me again. Walter jumps over the gate and knows when I wake up and jumps on me. I hope you greeted Bogey at the bridge on 9/9/21. Losing him was a shock and it happened so fast and he was so young. Cheyanne is over 20 now and still going. Walter is still a bully and Stanley is becoming one too. I've lit a candle every month on the anniversary of you leaving us. We love and miss all of you! Run free, play in the green grass, bask in the sunshine, and don't hurt any birds or chipmunks. Please look down on us every now and then. Love and miss you! :(

Love,

Mommy, Daddy, and all your furry brothers/sisters

5/25/25 - Hi Hailey girl, Four (4) years ago today we lost you. It's been a rough few years. I hope you greeted daddy 8/14/24, Cheyanne 4/14/23, Walter 7/3/23, Jazzy 9/27/23, Jesse 1/25/24, Stanley 1/13/25, and ZZ 3/16/25. The house is crazy as ever with Louie and Sophie. Boomer is nuts too. Holly is the only kitty left at 18 years old. She was daddy's nurse when he was sick. It's so weird just having one cat. I'm afraid to get more because of Louie and Sophie. If I did, they would have to be tough and not afraid to wack them if need be. Giggy has had cancer for 2 years and 2 surgeries, and it still grew back. He's a tough lil guy like Jesse was. She was a lil spitfire. I hope he doesn't leave me any time soon. I miss the old crew so badly. I miss daddy. It's a whole different world now. I can't wait to see you all again. Until then enjoy, have fun, bask in the sun, and wait for mommy. Each of you has taken a piece of my heart, and I don't have much left. I love you, sweet girl.

Love,

Holly, Giggy, Mya, Fred, Boomer, Sophie, and Louie
