Arrival Story: My daughter, Susan, and I found Natasha at the animal rescue league in town. She had no id on her cage but her paws were reaching outside. When we held her there, she was licking both of us. We took her home the next day after we were given the "ok" to own her. Susan had to wear a ski hat on at night because Natasha would groom Susan's hair until it was all wet. Natasha was our second cat. She had to tolerate Ben, my Maine Coon, who was a diabetic. He was also treated for a hyperthyroid by radiation. He was also on FUS for for urinary problems. Natasha ate his food without a problem. They were not close but they did well together until he was given his wings when he was 16 and she was eight and a half. She was not crazy about our new kitten, Alex, but she tolerated him until recently.

Bio: Natasha in her last couple of years developed a health problem that was not found until her last year. The vet thought that she was just scared of Alex because she hide. It turned out that she had an iris melanoma. The vet thought that it was cataracts but it was more serious. It affected her well-being because she was becoming nervous and scared of everything. She stayed in my bedroom.
Poor Alex missed his friend and would wait for her to come out. Finally at the cat hospital, Angell's, they diagnosed the iris melanoma and removed her eye. She did well and her appetite returned. She had a wonderful Spring and Summer. Then, in the late Fall, she started to miss her litter box and her appetite decreased. At the end of November, I brought her in to the vet several times. With blood tests and a biopsy, it was found that the cancer returned to her liver and was spreading quickly. She was given her wings on December 3, 2011. She was such a sweet cat. She would purr until I put my head down on my pillow. She slept with me those last years. She cuddled at the top of the bed. Alex has never gone where she slept even after she was passed over to the Bridge. She was indeed our sweet princess...and will always be missed...

When she came to us, she was under a year. We don't know her exactly age so I chose Valentine's Day. She was just three pounds and had a litter of kittens who did not survive. She must have been someone's cat because she was not afraid of us.

I am going to thank each one of those who sent me flowers on Mother's Day. It was such a sweet thought of them. I lost my litter of kittens when I was very young. My "mom" found me at the animal rescue league right after I lost them. I was so small, just three and half pounds. My "mom" thought that I was a kitten myself but I was just over a year old when she brought me home. I wish that I could have seen my kittens but I am seeing them now from the Bridge. They are as pretty as I am. They returned to homes where they will be loved. I do believe that I will return one day....Meanwhile, being a guardian to my family is my job. Thank you everyone......Guardian angel Natasha.

It was a year ago, that I left my family but I have never left them in spirit. My spot on her pillow is still empty. Juliette, her new kitten, is too busy to sleep all night in bed.
I have seen many friends come to the Bridge. When we have parties here at the Bridge, I bring the whipped cream. I know my family misses me every time I hear the whipped cream can. My "mom" gets a little sad when she thinks of me but I had seventeen wonderful years with them. What a life I had....my Ben is here with me to do some
catching and running. He and I were friends for many years before Alex came.
Mom is sad to think of my last days so I need her to know that I am fine and not to worry.....My spirit is alive and will always watch over my family......
Dear family......my purrrrrrs to you are being sent....just listen to them through Alex and Juliette....I love you and will protect you.....I love you........purrrrrsssss from your
Natasha always....

It will be almost six months since you left us. I didn't think that it would hit us so hard.
You were deeply loved. You can never be replaced and I will always have a place in my heart for you, my orange girl. I want you to watch over us and make sure that
everything goes well. You were the caretaker and had a special touch.
Alex is doing well as he usually does. He is eating as much as he can.
We have you in a special place in our home as we have for our Ben.
Your portrait that includes Ben's and Alex's will be finished soon.
I will post it here so others can see it.
Thank you for being you.....your "mom"....xxxxxxxxooooooooo
