Dear angel Buttercup, Your Highness, sweet little Princess~

It breaks my heart that you had to leave for the Rainbow Bridge at such a young age, were taken from your Mommy long before your time. But I am comforted knowing that during your most difficult hours you were in the loving care of that forever human God intended you to be with, that you left this world with a heart full of love, on gossamer wings of gold and silver, ruby encrusted carriage in tow! Yes, you and your Mommy most certainly were destined to be together, sweetheart, a higher power knowing that you would be need of someone extra special, someone who would devote themselves to you completely and unconditionally, someone able to meet the challenges that lay before you.

We all know how your Mommy's heart aches for her little Princess, how she longs for your regal presence and loving spirit, the ability to hold you and cuddle you and kiss you. But one day you and she will be together again, and oh, what a happy day that will be! You truly are a Princess, Buttercup, and so very worthy of your Cat of the Day, Cat of a Lifetime, crown! (I'll bet that crown too is encrusted with rubies!)

All my love to you, beautiful Buttercup, and to your wonderful Mommy, too.
Sandra
