This is dedicated to all our sweet loved cats who have passed.
May they dwell in Dewachen in ultimate peace and happiness.
Before I go on to talk about my sweet cats, there are other little
ones I have also been fortunate enough to have had in my life. Sadly I don't
have any photos of them, but they live in my heart and mind.
There were my
guinea pigs Fluffy, Whitey, and their little
pups who passed in the early 70's. Fluffy lived for about 10 years. Whitey was
an albino. We loved them dearly.
There was little Nap
and Tammy our budgerigars who passed in the mid 70s. Tammy
lived for 10 years, a beautiful blue budgie with a lame leg. Nap only lived 2
years sadly, he was blue and male. He would talk and he would imitate my coughs
and sneezes as well :) . He was named by Tina my dear sister who sadly passed in
1978.
There was Mouse who very sadly only lived about
one year. I loved Mouse and it was so sad when he passed in 1985 in Red Hill. He
was a tabby cat I found on the Gold Coast Hwy when he was about 3 months old.
There was Ginge who was a lovely cat who lived for about 10 years. He adopted our house as well when I was young. He died around the late 70's.
Atticus was one of two little sweeties that were
strays kittens we had from birth and we adopted them both. Atticus comes from
the movie "To Kill A Mockingbird" which is one of my favourite movies. We
shortened his name to Atty. I loved Atty very much. He passed 28th November
1998. They were born 4th October 1988 in
Melbourne.
Eyebrows (Eyeseys) is Atticus' sister. We
named Eyebrows because when she was a kitten, all you could see is 2 eyebrows as
she was a tortie. She was such an independent and sweet little thing. Eyebrows
passed 15th September 2004. She was 16 years old. Eyeseys had always been very
healthy all her life. I remember them each day with great love. They were my
best friends. I hope they all dwell in Dewachen now.
We were so heartbroken to hear on
May 9th 2006,
our sweet little baby boy Kesari, whom we had
fostered as one of the five kittens, died tragically in a home accident. It was
so difficult initially to find a home for him in the first place after we
fostered him for the Animal Welfare League and then when we found out he
had died, well it was totally heartbreaking. Our sweet little baby boy. We shall
never ever forget you. He was such an amazing being, so sweet, peaceful and a
complete joy. May he dwell in Dewachen. He was only 20 months old.
Khensu our little black panther we have now reminds me of Atty in
that he is also very large already and is quite shy and sookie at times like
Atty was. Atty was a quiet but sometimes vocal huge sleek black cat that when
people saw him, their mouths would drop as he was so big :) .
I'm so
grateful for the love and happiness they
gave me.
