To Midnight, with Love

"No amount of time can erase the memory of a good cat, and no amount of masking tape can ever totally remove his fur from your couch."  --Leo Buscaglia

My dear friend, Chuck, lost his kitty friend, Midnight, yesterday.  My heart aches for Chuck and Sylvia, as losing a kitty friend is horrible.  And the idea of losing him at only 2 1/2 years old is just heart-wrenching.

Midnight was a barn cat, one that survived the rest of his litter and Chuck rescued him from a life of danger and/or early death.  And from the onset, Chuck and Midnight were fast friends.  Oh, how I loved to hear of their silly adventures, playing with each other and taking naps while watching the car races.  If there were two peas in a pod, it was Chuck and Midnight.

Please stop by and give Chuck a little virtual hug today, as I'm sure he and Sylvia need it.  And please, give your animal friends a big smoochie in Midnight's honor as well.

Goodbye, dear kitty friend. You are gone way too soon.

Rebecca---I agree. Frogs are....well....frogs. Kitties are our friends. I'm very, very sad at the news.
