Two Cats Tribute

by BlackJack

There were two very special cats, brother and sister, who had a wonderful meowmie and lovely home. Their meowmie's father had been quite ill, and was in the hospital, so they didn't see their meowmie as much, because she would go over and visit him. They loved their meowmie very much, and worried about her father, because she would tell them how things were going with him.

One morning the phone rang, and meowmie seemed extra sad. She told them that her father was fading fast, so she would probably be gone for most of the day, but that she would come back and feed them. As she left, they sat watch over the house, and patiently waited. Hours passed, and here came their meowmie, back just to feed them, pet them and tell them that she would be going back to the hospital. The two kitties knew that things were coming to a close with meowmie's father, and so they were extra loving to her before she left.

Very late that night, about 2am, meowmie finally came home. She looked very very sad, and went and fed the kitties, then sat on the couch with a sorrowful look on her face. The two kitties knew she needed a lot of comforting. First one jumped up on the couch and sat perched on one of meowmie's legs. Meowmie was so happy, and petted and loved on the kitty, then, the other jumped up and sat perched on her other leg. Never before had these two kitties done such a thing, and they sat there for a long time, just letting their meowmie pet them, and tell them the sad news that her father had crossed the Rainbow Bridge that night.

She was so touched by the kitties special love, and the fact that they knew that her father had passed on. Never before had they sat that way with her, and it made their meowmie feel so much better knowing that these two special cats were now her only family. One very special thing too, is that these two cats never sat like this again, that was their special tribute to their meowmie's father.
