Deek

You were a scruffy little stray kitten that stole my heart from the first time I saw you. Although I really didn't need another cat, I quickly scooped you up and for the next 7 years you hardly left my side. I called you "my baby" even when the time came to feed you food for "mature cats". You were never like other cats and you always needed a little extra help. No vet could explain why you were "a little off", but it made me love you more. Your bright blue eyes always lit up when I said your name and spending time with me was the highlight of your day.

I'll never know why your kidney's had to fail at such a young age. Seeing you decline was almost more than I could take. Even when you were so thin and sick, you were still my baby with the bright blue eyes. I know that I made the right decision to end your life when I did, but I didn't think I'd miss you so much. I wish I could still be the one to take care of you, but I know that you don't need me anymore. You're with the best caregiver in the world now.

I love you, S.A.
