We've had a sad few weeks around our house. Our sweet and snugly gato passed away after twenty years of being our friend. She was always up for a cuddle and I found it hard to resist sticking my nose in her neck and snuggling her close when I found her sleeping on the couch, or the arm chair, or bed or wherever she happened to pass out.
My extremely biased opinion is that she was the prettiest gato around. I loved her big green eyes and pretty orange fur and her expressive little face which always seemed to be thinking witty and clever thoughts.
She loved the outside and looked forward to the Spring and Summer when she could soak up the sun and watch the birds and squirrels in the yard.
She had a fun side and didn't mind dressing up occasionally - much.
But mostly she liked to curl up on our lap or tummy or shoulder or whatever was handy and purr and share so much love with us. We love her and miss her and are grateful for so many wonderful years with such a wonderful, loveable cat.
