Mike

Mike, our cat, died today, and I think a part of me died too.
How can a simple animal have such a profound impact on a family.
Her presence was felt in all aspects of our life.
So many things are connected with her, a web so complicated that it would be
impossible to list them all. Like synapses in the brain.
But I am happy that we were able to take care of her. 
Perhaps without us doing so her life as a stray would have been very different and probably a lot shorter.

I just hope her last days were comfortable, as much as they could be with kidney's failing.

Miss you a lot.
