My little blue/cream tortie, Cookie, died this noon hour. Although I do not know why or how. The last I saw of her alive was about 10:30 AM, and when I returned from the animal shelter at about 11:30, she was dead laying in my grassy yard next to my driveway. Needless to say I was upset. She has alway been a good girl about being outside. When I call her she would usually show up at the door. Her demise has strange overtones, because I did not see any marks on her body, as if being hit by a car. The only thing that I can think of is that either the next door neighbor's kids accidently killed her, or she may have been bumped by a car on the road. She was blind in one eye and this may have had something to do with it, that whoever or whatever killed her, she probably did not see it coming.
Cookie you will be missed. Remembering how tiny you were as kitten, even clumbsy in your gait. I will always remember your crying out for me to recognize your need for cuddlies, and that you were a faithful pet. Every morning you would be at my feet on my bed, just like this morning. Good-bye my little friend.
