indoors Arrival Story: Wriggley is Fluff's sister. She was born outside. Bio: Wriggley is a very intelligent cat. You can actually see her thinking through each test or challange you give her. It makes it very difficult to hide toys or food. If she knows where you put it, she will wait until you are not looking and begin her quest to get it.
Wriggley enjoys playing and having fun. She also loves her food dish.
How did tubin begin???
When we built our deck we had a left over tube for making the cement pilings. As a joke, we brought in the house to see if the cats would crawl inside it. Wriggley immediately went inside and claimed it as hers. See her video of how she "tubes".
Wriggley was diagnosed with Lymphoma on October 21, 2008. She responded well to her first round of chemotherapy and was doing wonderfully. She came out of remission in late January and had serious low white blood cell issues.
Wriggley took her journey to the Rainbow Bridge on February 3, 2009.

Mom spent most of the day thinking of me. All the crazy things I would do and how sweet and gentle of a kitty I was. It was a day of smiles and not tears. I am very happy for that.
Thank you to all of my dear friends for their sweet and kind words. It means so much to us.
Mom will thank each of you individually when she has a few minutes
She is going away with friends for a few days and will be leaving first thing in the morning.
I am glad she is finding some time for herself. She definitly needs some girl time !!
Mom has been sleeping pretty well lately. She generally has Pinkie waking her up during the night. But she has been leaving her alone and Mom has enjoyed the restful sleep.
Today, I had to wake her up about 3 am so that she had
the alone time to think of what today is.
She knew today was not your ordinary day. Then it hit her. It is the day I took my journey to the Rainbow Bridge. I spend my days doing all that I loved to do when I was an earth kitty. My tube is pink and has purrty rhinestones on the outside. I love to fly around and take long naps on soft fluffy clouds. Well, I have been invited by dude K to go to boe boe's fish N fry N for a tunie samich. Sounds like fun!
Mom here,
This was the first time in months that I woke up and could not fall back to sleep. Even Pinkie just stayed laying beside me and didn't think it was time to get up and get some food.
Although this is the day Wriggley left us, her presence is still very strong in our home. Her tube now holds all the cat toys. No one really took to the tube as she did. I am so glad that I took a video of her playing with her tube. There are times that you think are just one of many to come. So, you say next time I will do it. I am glad that I didn't wait.
I think of Wriggley often and both her Dad and I miss her so much. As I have noted in past diary entries, she was very intelligent. She loved puzzles and tests. She would figure out all of them. You could see her "thinking".
She figured out how to climb through the rafters to get at Nonny and Stripey when we first let them in the house and had them in the basement. We would find her each morning on the side with the closed door and wonder how she got over there. Once we blocked it off, she found a different way to get through the ceiling which brought her into another room downstairs.
