Giving Thanks for Gold Kitty

 

Today I give thanks for Gold Kitty and all of the years of love and joy and smiles and wonderful memories he gave me.  From sitting on the bench of the picnic table and tilting his head slightly as I talked to him about things, to him peeking out around the corner of the carport in the morning when I came out to feed him, then he'd head back into the carport when he saw I was coming and go under the lattice to wait for me to put his food down.  Or him laying out in the sunbeam and watching for me to come up the hill from work -- he greeted me over near the fire bushes.  Sometimes he would come sit on the front porch to visit or sit in the flowerbed out front under the window or the flowerbed out back under the office window to look for me and Gracie.  Or he'd sit on the railing of the deck by the house and look in the window of the office to look for me. :)  So many wonderful memories, so many more to speak of, and other interactions I wish I could recall.  I wish I could recall every moment he spent with me.  I wish I could relive every one of them again and again.  Such a sweet and handsome boy.  The love he showed me and gave me lives on in my heart and in my memories and will stay with me for all my days.  

Thank you, Gold Kitty.  Thank you for being you and thank you for loving me and spending all of those moments with me.  Thank you for choosing me and making me a part of your family.  I love you.
