Remembering Mandy
2002- 12-24-07
I will never forget you my dear feline friend. I am thankful for the years we had togeather.The grief I feel in your passing there are no words for. However, the memories you have given me make it more then worth it.
I remember when you first came to me, along with your littermates. I was to be your foster mom for a while. You were the only one to survive. I just did not have the heart to part with you then so you became a permament part of the famliy. you were a shy kitty, not liking to be held or given that much attention. You did not like it at all when I would try to brush you. You sure were not very pleased with me that time I took you to the vet to be shaved cause your fur was all knotted up. You liked hanging out with Rose (my chihuahua). Rose is a puppy mill rescue and her first few years of life were a horror beyond mortal thought. You brought her comfort and somehow took her fear away.
You deserved so much better then I gave you. If only I had paid more attention and realized something was wrong sooner, you might still be alive today.
On December 24th, 10:13PM, I watched Mandy take her last breath as she lost her battle with Fatty Liver Disease. As I caressed her head, she quietly left this world and went to a better place. Her passing was very peaceful.
