Guest FullMetalFrank Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 I just found out today that this past Wednesday, sometime during the night, my daughter's beloved cat, Angel, passed away. It was totally unexpected; he was fine when my ex let him in earlier. My daughter, who is only eight, found him on the couch in the morning, and he was gone. She was devastated. I feel horrible because I was not there (my DD lives with her Dad) Angel was a stray who found his way up onto our porch quite a few years ago. He decided to stay; he was a big, sturdy cat and he took an instant liking to my young daughter. He always waited for her to go to bed, followed her up the stairs, and slept with her. Tiffany was only three or four when Angel came to us, and she felt very special that the cat had chosen her to be his person. When my ex and I split, and my DD went to live with him, she missed her cat so I brought him over to be with them. He promptly went missing for a week, and then reappeared. He was doing well, healthy and happy last time I saw him. What happened is a mystery; he will be sorely missed by my whole family. Today my DD went with her sister and my ex to the shelter and they adopted a kitten, my girl picked him out, I have not seen him yet but my ex says he looks just like her Angel, black with a little white spot on his chest. This kitty will be indoors only, and hopefully will bond with my daughter and be around for many, many years. My daughter is wonderfully compassionate and caring with animals and I believe Angel helped to instill some of that in her. Rest in peace, sweet kitty...
