I hope, towards the end, that there will be someone who will be as gentle with me, as loving as me as patient as me, as I am trying to be as my one and only kitty starts to approach the end of her life.
I hope there will be somebody with whom I can demand love and attention and food. With whom I can snuggle. Who will comfort me.
I do this because she deserves that. And because it's good for me also? And I'm just trying my best to manage the fact that my heart will break when she dies cuz I love her so much. I have raised her from a kitten.
She's taught me to be gentle. She's taught me to be patient. She's taught me how to hold my boundaries because she does. She's taught me how to forgive accidents and mistakes. She's taught me how to be spunky.
She's this little 9 lb calico. And she's helped me realize that you have to ask, very clearly, for what you want, in order to get it.
She's not my only teacher, but she is incredibly persistent in trying to drive the point home.
She is 19 years old. 19 and 1/2 now. I would have said I was grown up when I met her, but I wasn't whole.
Her name is Tribble, and when I got her I could hold her in one hand, she didn't overflow it. She's sleeping on my lap a lot the last couple of months, and she's also not grooming her fur anymore.
It's only a matter of time. Though I have been in denial for a really long time, and have been thinking maybe she'll live forever? Maybe we will be able to cheat. Not going to say that whole phrase because it feels like a jinx.
But everyone that's born, lives, and then dies. And I may be crying all down my face just thinking about it cuz she's got my heart string wrapped around her little paw and her bossy little meow and headbonks
I'm just having a personally rough day today, about it.
Here's a couple pictures I took earlier today and this week. This is my best girl.
