I miss my Mutt
Baron Mind wrote:
We have had some very special kitties over the years. One of the most unique was a stray we named Waldo, but his nickname was Mutt. That is what we always called him. He became my best friend for 17 years. He was a polydactyl with big feet and extra toes. He always made us smile.. Boy, did we bond! He would climb up on me all the time and cling so tight we would call him Velcro Kitty. I could walk around the house and do chores with him attached to my shoulder. He brought so much joy and love into our home. We also called him Love Sponge because he could never get enough affection. He would hate it when I left the house and was always very happy when I returned. He crossed the bridge last December and we were so sad, but kitties do come into our lives and then go away. We have been owned by so many kitties over the years, but it is always hard to say goodbye to them. We still have 4 kitties. They are good kitties and we love them, but none are as special as Mutt. He was my best friend. Still catching up on posts... and this one really touched me. I know that many of us have a lot of cats in our lives, either all at once, or over time, or both. But there are some cats who really touch us for some reason, and Mutt was clearly one of those cats for you. Nobody else can fill his pawprints, no matter how many cats you might have loved since, or will love in the future. It's a hard one. But I hope that you can still enjoy the other cats you have now, and let them console you. Who knows, maybe you will develop a special bond with one or more of them, too. People change, and so do cats. Purrs, -- Joyce ^..^ (To email me, remove the X's from my user name.) |
