I want you to help me wish my furbaby, Skitty, a happy 13. I nearly lost her a few months ago as she was barely eating during much of the month of November.
As Thanksgiving approached, I was a day away from taking her to the vet to have her put down. But then, as the weekend before Thanksgiving approached, she began to eat a little here and there.
She’s been lonely for about the last couple of years as her brother, BeeBee, died all of a sudden during the summer of 2024. She’s the last of my inside cats and I don’t know if I will get anymore inside cats for a while after she goes.
I called her Skitty as she was very skittish when she was born. Her mother had her babies in an old Ford Taurus that I had that stopped running. She hissed at me the first time she saw me and she wasn’t too friendly toward any other people. When I took the litter to my work as one of my colleagues wanted a cat, Skitty hissed at her and that was a big no.
It took her almost a year to cozy up to me and then she remained hanging around the other cats until she got older. And now, she sits next to me on my recliners and lies next to me in bed.
I’m not sure how much longer she’ll live. We never know how long any of us will live.
Hope you all are doing well. Thanks for reading and subscribing.
