Miss you, Gabby

We had our beloved cat of 7 years euthanized today. I know I'll miss her when I walk in the door tonight. She always greeted me with a little chirpy meow. Clicking on the topics, you can see past posts about her hiding tactics, penchant for golf clubs and role as a big sister.


In our room, cuddling up like she used to do.


Being a big sister, and one who's never far away from the camera.


Showing B. what a cat's tail looks like!


Making sure Mom carefully trims the nails.


When I was sick with mastitis for the first time, she stayed by my side.


She always loved to sit in B.'s rocking chair. I would get mad at her for it, but I think she did it to be closer to her "little" brother.


Remember what I said about the camera? She also always played nice with B.'s friends.


Caught her one night napping in B.'s bouncy chair.


She looked too cute to move.


I think these were her last few healthy days in September.


Always guarding B.'s toys after he went to sleep at night.


Of course, always inquisitive.


Always willing to cuddle on a cold day made for hot tea, a good book and quilts.


Oh, Gabby, we miss you so much.


We were lucky to have you with us for 7 years.


Now big sister Booty will relearn what it's like to be the only kitty at home.




But I'm sure she'll miss cozying up to her sometimes-annoying but always lovable little sis!


Dream some sweet kitty dreams!
