I had completely forgot about this post until Catty1 brought it up that I hadn't given you guys a update. So here goes:

The lump was cancer. They went in and removed it but it came back later that year and Mom didn't want to put her through surgery again. Fluffy was 16 and lost so much weight the last time I saw her. She had been ten pounds all of her adult life but she was about five pounds then. I just remember hugging her before I left to head back home and saying I didn't know if I'd see her again. That was Easter of 05. I don't know when she went. All I can remember is it was fall of that year. Sometime between mid Aug and Oct. I got four text messages on my phone from my little brother telling me to call home. That's when they told me that she had stopped eating and she was in too much pain to let her keep going. Mom had her put down. It's been two years and I still look for her when I come home. I still forget to bring cat food for Isis cuz I still think there's some here. I miss her. Isis misses her. Mom misses her the most.

I still smile though when I think back about her. I remember just after my little brother was born (Fluffy was one at the time) I told Mom that we had Fluff first so if we really had to Michael would have to go first before the cat.

Miss you Fluff Puff Grandpa will keep you company til we can get up there to see you.
