remembering snug

she was the cutest tabby kitten i'd ever seen ~

& she loved to snuggle ~

she loved to play with her mom, sisters & auntie sabrina ~

we named her snugglebug, but mostly we just called her snug, & she was always my special kitty ~

i love all of my kitties, but we had a special bond ~

always beside me, she helped me to feel calm ~

psyche, my sweet sister.. she appears at the end of my halloween ulalume reading here ~

she lived to be a sweet little deaf old lady kitty of 18 ~

the last of our beloved kitty family of 7, i lost her last year on this day ~

my cheshire kitty, my therapy cat, my soulsister ~

best kitty in the whole world ~

last picture ~

this picture sits over my bed so i can see her always ~

our cheshire cat..
she smiles..
and then disappears..
