Seriously, I knew this whole blog thing was a bad idea :/
Well, a lot has happened in over a month since my last post.
For those of you that don't know, my dear little cat Terra has passed away. Well, that's a very nice way to put it anyway. She was actually attacked by a bobcat just outside my mom's house where she lives with her dear brother Cecil.
It's amazing she survived the initial attack at all as I'm sure everyone who lives or has lived on the mountain knows: when cats disappear, we all assume they have been 'eaten'. But my mom and her dog Mali managed to chase off the attacker, so it must have been a very young and inexperienced bobcat. Terra would have lived but had too much neurological damage that it would not have been much of a life at all. So mom and I had to make the terrible decision to put her down.
I haven't had to put many cats down in my years of loosing cats, and I don't know it if made it harder or easier. At least we got to bury her next to our old dog Cecelia. Out of the many many cats we've lost, we have only ever buried three.
I think I have been taking it extra hard because of my mommy hormones though.
But we all miss Little Thing.
Ok, so I started this post weeks ago, so I'll just end it there, as a tribute to my beautiful little cat, and maybe the next post will be alittle more light hearted.
