Mamma...the best gift I ever got back!

Originally Mamma cat was given to a neighboring farm when she was a kitten. The neighbor then went on vacation 2 weeks later and hired me to feed his horses for a week. When they returned, he handed me Mamma "kitten" for my payment instead of a check! At the time( I was 12yrs old) I wasnt very happy with my neighbor, I was looking forward to going shopping. And I didnt realize how lucky I was to get her back! She was a dear and wonderful cat and was very loved until she passed on at the age of 17yrs old...I was 29, who would have thought! I miss her very much...she was one of a kind!

This picture is when she was around 10yrs old

Thank you everyone for your warm thoughts!

catmandu, when I read ," and you will see your friend again one fine day" it reminded me of a beautiful memorial for your pets...
It's a song and poem mixture, and I hope you all enjoy it
