Today my sweet baby girl, only 6 years old, went to be held by Jesus before 9:00 AM. She is getting to see her PawPaw Marion and Uncle Jim who went there last year.
She began a fight last January with a neurological defect that caused her to loose the awareness that her bladder was emptying. We thought it was under control with some compounded medicine. She felt confused and ashamed that puddles kept popping up everywhere she lay. I was never angry with her for it, but tried with medicines and specialists all over Houston, TX to get her help.
Let me tell some things about that I do not want to ever forget:
When she first came to me as a teeny kitten, she invented a game of chase with me. She would do a "Meow" and a little head nod to one side, as if saying "come on, lets play." She was cute that way. she would come when I called her too!
She would quiver with excitement and pleasure when she saw a bug/frog/lizard/snake that she thought she might play with. Holding her at that time- you could feel her thrill!
Tessa liked classical music. She would sing along - even when her Daddy Jim was playing a cheap little flute!
She would always be by my side to keep me company as I worked in the office on the computer. She would even jump up onto the desk as if I needed her help more.
If you were ill or had a bad day, she would climb up into your lap or lay beside you to make you feel better. She was a good comforter!
She would not go to bed until we did. You could tell sometimes, she was thinking..."come on, I am tired." Of course, she slept in the bed with us! The past few months she has been staying closer to us that usual. OMG I will miss you so much. I am so heartbroken. I cannot believe she is gone.
I want to thank my vet, Dr. Dennis Mangum at Spencer Animal Hospital for being so kind to us always. And to all the breeders who called and wrote me regarding her problem. I wish we could have done more for her.
And finally, thank you CATSTER for giving me a way to tell you all about our precious little girl.
Aloha does not mean Goodbye forever! It is a spirit of love from the Islands.

Meow there,
Just though I'd check in and let you all know I am doing FINE! I can eat now and Meowmy does not give me any drugs AT ALL! She has bought me a few new baby blankets to lounge upon. I no longer leak tee-tee everywhere. Boy, was that embarrassing! I am back sleeping on my own pillow above Meowmy's head on the master bed at night. I have my own bed...but I like sleeping with her and Daddy. I caught a lizard yesterday but I brought in in to show Meowmy and it got loose under the love seat and I could not find it. Oh well, I'll just have to get another one, or perhaps a frog! They are so cute the way they jump around. I really get excited about that!
Toodles!

Thanks to all the Manx Breeders who contacted my Meowmy in order to help her with my medical problem. She did not expect so many to be willing to help us! Thanks again and may God Bless You.
