Last week I placed Pay in intensive care. Today, Pay is in his last minutes of life. This cat was the wonderful Animal I have ever owned, only Sapo, I lost last Christmas, meant as much to me. Pay's had a good life. Underwent several surgeries from his early days as a kitten. Apparently, he was born with an ear infection. Until his health started failing, he was the best foot warmer one could have.
Pay was born 20 hours after his 3 brothers and was surprised to see in the nest box hours after I thought his mother had finished kitting. He was born with an ear infection, which required 3 surgeries to correct. Leaving him with a slightly tilted head.
Pay love to play hide and seek with me. It was enjoyable and very laughable how he would run, hide, and sneak his head out to see where I might be looking. When he was well, he loved riding on the vacuum cleaner. Pay expected grooming when the vacuum starts up. He loved the feel of suction cleaning his hair. He showed his love for me and my friends with nibbles.
Although I will dearly miss him, I am good. I have grand memories of him, the antics, and his expression of love. He was a smart boy.
He had a great life, and Mother Earth is calling him to join that heaven for animals.
Born January 10, 2012. He is nearly 13 years old.
