It's hard to believe 14 years have went by since I first found you at the local shelter. 14 years of the best times. I remember you were the last one in the bottom cage, turned around with your back to the door, huddled up in a ball. We almost missed you had we not gone down the aisle one more time. You looked so sad and scared and I knew at that moment you were to be apart of the family. Fast forward throughout all the years and you really were a trooper with all the places we moved to. Including adding more cats to the household (which you never liked) and all the long car rides to the vet because I was so picky of who took care of you. You were the only one I had to come home to, the only one that slept with me every night and the only one I saw everyday. When you got diagnosed with terminal cancer back in July I couldn't believe it, how could my pumpkin, of all cats, be diagnosed with such a terrible disease? I was so optimistic that you'd pull through and we'd fight the cancer. That we did until your kidney disease got worse and the cancer came back with a vengeance. The kidney diagnosis was known about long ago but that combined with the cancer made everything worse. But I told you I'd have your back until the end!! Even though everyone told me to put you down I knew you were still a fighter. I'm thankful for those extra days I got with you Zoey
To everyone who took the time to leave words of kindness and condolences I have been comforted. Losing Z hasn't been easy but I'm feeling a lot less sadness but more appreciation and gratitude knowing that I was lucky enough to of had the privilege of taking care of her. I still cry looking at her pictures but I want this place to be a place of healing, not sadness. So therefore I will use it as an outlet to share memories or just as a way to let Zoey know how much we miss her. Please continue to think of her and I will continue to post more pictures and memories. With all my love, 12-23-19 I've been especially sad today, looking at pictures and reminiscing on all the previous years has been hard. I've been trying to find all the old photos and videos and put them in one collective area on my computer so I can keep them safe. Which has made me realize how many were taken over the years and how many more I wished I would of taken. Especially video, because it is the best way to remember you Z :) I never got that experience with my last fur baby since it was a time before cell phones. So I am grateful for that aspect. 1-7-20 Happy New Year! Still miss you Z, but we added a new member to the family that I know you would of loved ( well, maybe lol) his name is Gilligan and he looks a little bit like you! Having him around makes the loneliness of you not around a little more bearable. I went to a local shelter with the hopes of finding another cat I could take care of and love for a long time 😊 I think he picked me though! I still have moments of sadness and grief but it is getting better..I'm very happy we took video of you so we have lots of memories to remember vividly. Love you Z ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ 🌹Rachel 5/31/20 Happy birthday peanut! You are still dearly missed 😥 ❣️💕Rachel Update Zoey, I have been thinking about you a lot lately, I feel like I have no one to talk to about all of our memories. I know it seems silly writing that here but I feel it worth putting down somewhere, maybe, in case it makes me feel a little bit better because these last months have been sad for me still. I miss you a lot and tears still come to my eyes when I look at your pictures. Gilligan is getting so much bigger. He still looks like you a bit with his markings. He's very outgoing and loves people. Very opposite of your personality so it's been different getting used to 🙃 I'm glad to have him in my life. He says hello 💜 You are so truly missed Zoey. I will need much more time to get through the sadness I still feel. Love you peanut forever and always. 💜Rachel 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸💐💐💐 5/31/21 Happy birthday Zoey, love and miss you every day🥲 11/22/21 Zoey, Been thinking of you a lot lately, you are so missed 😢 I wish you were still here.
