We Shall Never Forget...

Meowmy was strangely sad today. She told me it was because of 9/11. She said that ten years ago, on this furry day, a terrible thing happened. Actually, SEVERAL terrible things happened. I hadn't been born when this awful thing occured, so Meowmy had to tell me what transpired that day.

Meowmy explained to me that efurrything happened across the United States in New York, Washington D.C., and Pennsylvania. These states are on the East Coast, and efurrybody there gets up three hours earlier than we do. When Meowmy woke up on 9/11/01, the attacks had already happened because of the time difference. She said that furst a passenger jet hit the North Tower of the Twin Towers in New York City. Then anofur jet hit the South Tower of the Twin Towers. Next, approximately a half an hour later, a jet crashed into the Pentagon. Twenty six minutes later, a jet crash landed in a vacant field in Shanksville Pennsylvania instead of its intended target; The White House. During the next hour after the last airplane crashed in Pennsylvania, both of the Twin Towers toppled over, and came crashing down on the streets of New York City killing even more people. All togefur, between the passengers that were killed on the airplanes, the workers in both of the Twin Towers, and the workers in the Pentagon, there were almost 3,000 people that died that day. The Policemen, Police women, and Firefighters that came to rescue people out of the Twin Towers were also lost that day. Meowmy said that terrorists were responsible for the attacks. I don't understand why some people can be so cruel and thoughtless, with no regard for human life. I am glad that I am an animal, and we don't think that way.

Meowmy did much like what she did on 9/11/01 today. She watched the television most of the day today, reliving what happened not so long ago on that fateful day. She purrayed fur the families of all those that died that day, and the days following the tragedy from their injuries. She purrayed that nothing like this will efur happen again in America. I hope that her purrayers will come true. Life is too short to waste it with hatred for one anofur and senseless killing. When Meowmy was through purraying tonight, she brushed me, stroked my soft fur, and told me how much she loved me. Then she told me how much better she felt because of my love fur her...I was only too happy to finally see her smile today!

Happy Purrs,

Daisy
