Cuddles from Bloomington

(Bloomington, IL)

I got her when she was just a little kitten and she was my baby. She was a short hair butterscotch kitten and she was my best friend.

When I was sad she would kiss me on the nose or when I wasn't feeling well she would try to comfort me. I had to put her down last June 7th when she got so sick and couldn't control her bladder.

I kept her favorite mouse she use to play with and there are oodles of pictures of her all over my apartment. She might be gone, but I still feel her here with me. I will always love her and she will always remain in my heart.
