Brave Kitty

Marmalade kitty might have been a frighten cat his whole life but in the end, he was very brave.  The last two months of his life, he was blind.  He would still try and find my bed to sleep with me at night and he only had two accidents with not being able to find his cat pan.  As the days went on, he became very sick and over Christmas, I knew it was time to take him so he wouldn't be suffering any more.  It's one of the hardest things I have ever had to do in my life.  As you know, if you are one who have pets you just want to hold on to them forever.  You can't imagine them gone.  Thank goodness I had Michelle here.  As she knew what it was like because she lost her Oscar kitty just the month before.  Yes, we had a funeral down at the Brambly Pines Pet Cemetery.  Chuck and Craig dug the hole.  We sang " Soft kitty, Warm kitty" and put up the Funeral Zone sign.  My sun room/bed room where Marmalade lived most of the time seems really empty now, along with a part of my heart.  In the past 43 years, this is only the third time we have had to go through this.  Each time has been just as hard as the last.  Yes, time heals your heartache but you never stop missing them.  " Marmalade, the most brave kitty!"
