I will never forget when I met you 14 years ago. While the others were sleeping and not paying attention to me, I opened your cage door, and you ran right up my leg to my shoulder. I knew then it was meant to be. You picked me....I will always love you for that.

Through all the parties, all the homes, all the boyfriends, you stood by me. You always knew when I was upset and when I was sick and always came to cuddle with me. I didn't know you would know me so well. And, be so smart and loving and giving. I prayed when you passed God wouldn't let you suffer, and you went so fast, it's like a hole ripped out of my heart.

You would always greet me with a meow, and when I was away to long you would jump into my arms. You slept with me every night and made sure I was safe. You let me know when spiders were around. You hugged me back when I hugged you. And, when I said "kitty massage", you would go to your little stand and lean over it, for your back rub. You looked after me, and let me know when things were going wrong. You even knew when people were bad or not, I trusted your instinct like no other.

Ben, my love of my life, it hasn't even been 24 hrs and I miss you so much. My heart aches not having you here...we sure did have some good times together. You will always be in my heart and my soul. I will think of you often as there will never be another you. My home feels so empty without you here.

May you rest in peace and God always look after you, and my love I will see you heaven. All my love to you. Oh how I miss you.
