Approximately 9/1982-09/10/2001

In memory of my first cat, Twit #1. 

She was the love of our lives.  A petite black and white girl kitten my husband found on the side of the road at the age of 4 weeks.  We almost didn't keep her because we had a not too friendly dog.  However, my MIL couldn't keep her, so my husband brought her home.

RIP, Twit!  Our hearts will never mend.  There is not a day that goes by that we don't think of you, Twitty.   Cry Cry Cry

 Kiss Kiss Kiss Kiss Kiss Kiss Kiss Kiss

It sounds like she had a wonderful long life with you, but it never is enough time, is it.  Do you have any pics of her?

I have to scan some in. She was a pre-digital kitty.

We never seem to get over the first one or even the second or any of them.

You gave her a good home.

Usually how we get our cats, they wander up to the house and we take them in.

I used to think that anyone doing anything weird was weird. I suddenly realized that anyone doing anything weird wasn't weird at all and it was the people saying they were weird that were weird.

Hope thinking of Twit enjoying the other side of the Bridge will comfort you, Justme.

The Kitten and The Falling Leaves     
by William Wordsworth 


See the kitten on the wall, sporting with the leaves that fall,
Withered leaves - one - two - and three, from the lofty elder-tree!
Through the calm and frosty air, of this morning bright and fair . . .
- But the kitten, how she starts; Crouches, stretches, paws, and darts!

First at one, and then its fellow, just as light and just as yellow;
There are many now - now one - now they stop and there are none;
What intenseness of desire, in her upward eye of fire!

With a tiger-leap half way, now she meets the coming prey,
Lets it go as fast, and then, has it in her power again:
Now she works with three or four, like an Indian Conjuror;
Quick as he in feats of art, far beyond in joy of heart.

A sweet tribute to a cat who gave you such love. How wonderful for all of you that you found one another.

'All beauty of this world is wet with the dew of tears.'
~ Theodor Haecker

I am sorry for the loss of your dear friend.
