April 1998 - June 19, 2009

A beautiful foxy lady (look at her coat!)

Hugger from the days she wrapped her paws around my neck at the Southwest Washington Humane Society and wouldn’t let go

Co-companion with Buster and Mercy*

Nurturer of foster kittens

Guiding light to younger cats in the home – Happy & Lucky, Peaches & Cream

Aficionado of trickling water

Avid seeker of crunchy treats (a daily must)

Connoisseur of fresh catnip (and the dried form, too)

Terror of moles and voles

Lover of the great outdoors (the back yard, that is), especially the cool of hydrangeas and day lilies on hot afternoons

Warm greeter of human house guests

Quiet tolerater of treatments her vet recommended, to the end

Basker in winter sunshine

Gentle lady with the finest whiskers I’ve ever seen

A content cat with bursts of energy when a toy appeared, new to her memory

A fine fur-person

A notable companion

A dignified feline from our meeting to her final day

*Goodness and Mercy shall follow me all the days of my life – however, Mercy left in 2003 and now Goodness in 2009
