Oh maxi - I remember the day I picked you out at the pet store. You & your brother looked identical, but you had that fiesty little glare in your eyes, along with very sharp teeth. From the moment I got you home I carried you around on my shoulder .. you were only a couple of pounds then, and when you grew to be almost 20 pounds - we still carried you around on our shoulders. You were always such a little baby, and you loved to hear your name. Maxi! I still say it - even though you are gone, and cannot hear me - I still talk to you! We will miss your quirky ways - like how you would talk late at night to your sparkly ball, and how you loved to pull the hairs out of that ball. You ran to the kitchen every morning when it was time to eat, and your tail, straight & tall, twitched with excitement whenever we came home from work. Your little blue collar with the diamonds that looked like something Liberache would wear, was just so you. You had that spark that lit up a room when you walked into it. Oh how we miss you here!! I can't even begin to tell you how I miss you trying to jump high to get into bed at night. I even miss cleaning your dirty bummy. You were the best little guy I could have ever chosen, and to watch you pass away just broke my heart. I feel totally incomplete without you walking around this house! I keep looking at your picture just to see those sweet eyes that will never look up at me again. There is no other cat that can take the place you made in my heart. You will live forever in my heart, and memories of you will always be with us - though you, in body, will not. Words cannot express the love and companionship that you gave to me. I just hope in your last breath - you were at peace knowing how much love we have for you. Until we meet again - I will always kiss you goodnight in my dreams, and love you with every molecule in my being. Sweet Maxi - I miss you!!!! All our love, Your Mommys 2/14/15 Maxi - it is going on 3 years since I have held you. Oh how we still miss you, and you have to know how often you pop into our minds and conversation. You have been missed since you left us, and I am pretty sure we always will miss you. Until we meet again little man - I only have your pictures to look at, but all my memories of you are still so strong. I love you with all my hear, and so does you mommy. Love you sweetie!! Miss you always! Your mommy
3/12/12 Tomorrow will be 2 weeks since you've been gone! I still call your name. Poor Baylee keeps getting called Maxi - I think he might get a complex if I keep it up! I miss you little man! I still have you as my screen saver on my cell phone, you are the background on both of my computers, and everytime I see your sweet face - I just want to cry. It just doesn't seem fair that you got so sick so quickly. I blame myself for not taking you to the vet sooner! I'm sorry Maxi - I am so very sorry to have lost you! Today your plaque came with your name, birth date and date of death. I also got you a cat with angels wings. I am going to put it on your grave this weekend. I think of you under that cold earth - and it completely makes me ill. I just still cannot get a handle on the fact that you are gone forever - I will never get to hold you again - at least not on this earth. I miss you pretty boy! All my love, Mommy 3/15/12 Well - another day without you Maxi. I think of you, almost, every minute of the day. Something is a constant reminder of you not being her with us. I hate coming home, and opening the garage door because you used to sit right on the bottom step waiting for me. The first thing I would see was your cute pink nose! Each day - I am hoping that I will come to terms with this, but each day - I don't. I miss you Maxi ..SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!! I love you .. your mommy. 3/21/12 Yesterday was 3 weeks since you died, and 4 weeks since you were here, at home, with us. I keep missing you - and sometimes can't help crying. It is still hard to believe you are gone Maxi. I hope, whereever you are, you are at peace, and you know how much I love you! They say time heals all wounds .. I am not sure I will ever heal from loosing you!! I love and miss you little man!! all my love - mommy
P.S. We heard your song the other day, and your other mommy couldn't help but cry. That was the song that you & her would dance to. xoxoxox 3/27/12 Tomorrow will be a whole month without you!! I don't know how we are going on... I miss you so much Maxi. Uncle Bob said he talks to you while he is out on his porch. We all miss you. I keep thinking you will be here when I get home, but your precious little face is nowhere to be found. LOVE YOU MAXI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
4/3/12 Dear Maxi - I have been thinking about you all week. It seems so long since I saw your face - I am still in denial that you are gone. I have pictures of you on my phone, at work and at home... just so I can still feel you near me. I just wish you were here with us - I don't know what else I can say - I just miss you so very much that it hurts! I love you. mommy Many hugs & kisses!! 5/1/12 Maxi - I've been thinking so much about you. I still feel so sad, and miss you terribly. I know Baylee misses you too. I can't stop thinkiing about the day you took your last breath! How much you trusted me, and then you were gone. I am so sorry - I hope you are at peace now, and are playing with all the other cats in Heaven. I miss you so much - I have no words to explain how much! I love you little man! xoxoxoxoxoxox mommy 6/5/12 Hi sweet boy, I just wanted to write, and let you know I am thinking of you, and missing you. Everyday you cross my mind. Time may go by, but you are still with me, and I think you always will be! I love you Maxi. SMOOCH!! mommy 7/26/12 Hi baby boy .. I have been thinking of you a lot more lately. I miss you more than ever. It seems so much longer than 5 months without you! The other day I kept replaying the last time I held you, and your last breaths. I still feel so much guilt that I could not do more to help you!! I never expected that you would be so sick - so fast. I miss you Maxi .. more than last month. I wish I could hold you right now & kiss your freckled lip. xoxoxoxox Just know how much you continue to be loved!! mommy 9/20/12 Hi Maxi, I missed writing to you last month, but it doesn't ever mean I have forgotten you. I am getting used to the idea of you not being around, but some days I cannot help but cry over you. February is going on a year, and it still feels like yesterday that you died. I miss you so much it hurts Maxi. Baylee lays right where you & him used to lay together. I think Baylee still misses you. Him & Maceo keep picking on Ruby .. so they are taking up where you left off. All my love baby!! xoxoxoxoxox mommy Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn's rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die... 1/16/13 Maxi .. it is coming up on a year since you passed. I still love & miss you .. I hope you are running & playing with your sparkly ball in heaven. We miss you Maxi ... xoxoxox love always mommy 2/28/13 Well, today is a year since I saw you. I will never forget you Maxi. I still think of you so often. It is hard to believe that it is a year since I held & kissed you. I will never forget your eyes how they closed when the doctor gave you that shot. I still feel like we did not have enought time together. Whatever or whereever you are - I just hope you are out of pain, in peace, and happy. I hope you are eating all that you want and playing like when you were a kitten. I kept thinking about what I was doing last year. We put your to sleep around 5 pm, on this day, last year. I could not stop crying that day as I drove with you to bury you. I love you so much Maxi ... I miss you so much too! I wonder if this emptyness will ever go away? All your brothers and even your sister probably wonder where you are ... peace baby ... sleep well. Kiss Kiss love you forever Maxi. All my love - mommy. 2/28/14 It's 2 years now Maxi, and not much has changed. We still miss you, talk about you and think about you all the time. Maceo is 2 now, he is a little ball of energy all the time. Spoiled as can be. He & BayBay miss you. Mommy & I are always thinking about you, and can't believe it has been 2 years since we lost you. I will never ever forget that day. I miss you so much baby! I hope you are watching us, and are at peace.
