Rest in peace little man


As many of you know this is my little male cat, named Chester. Chester and his sister Zippey were found abandoned at a local pet store when he was four days old. Since arriving at my home he had been my constant companion. He loved to select crafting embellishments, picking on his sisters (my three other female cats) and you could not leave a roll of toilet paper unattended. He would suck the pads on his paws when he was tired, which although annoying when he shares your pillow, became a nighttime ritual. Besides my family, this cat touched my heart in places that I did not know existed. I had to put Chess to sleep on Sunday. I will never know what happened to him. He came into the house on Sunday night looking for me and I knew instantly something was wrong. When we arrived at the urgent care animal hospital he was in critical condition, his lungs were filled with fluid, he was having trouble breathing. His departure has left me empty. Thanks Chess for your unconditional love, the cat talk that only we understood, the night time TP parties you had, and most of all choosing me to be your human friend. Rest comfortable little man! Until I see you again - I miss you!
