Arrival Story: My mom bought her when she lived in Everett Washington. She was being used as a breeder cat. Mom fell in love with her at first sight.They shared many happy years together. When my mother passed away March 1, 1998, I asked my Step-Father if I could have her. He agreed that it would be better for her, as he was away at work all day, and she would be too lonely. So I took Muffy home to Sonora, Calif. She loved it here. I kept the house at a constant 70 degrees to keep her warm, as her breed has no hair. I loved her deeply. For six years we were best friends. She followed me everywhere. She sat patiently on my knee while I was eating, because she knew that when I was through, there would be a treat for her from my plate. She was so patient! At night in bed she would curl up on my head or face to go to sleep. She had to be as close to me as she could. In May of 2004 I took her to the vet for an ear problem. She kept shaking her head. After several tests we found out that she had a cancerous tumor in her brain growing out of her ear canal. She had immediate surgery to remove as much of the tumor as was possible. I medicated her daily. The tumor was growing so large you could see a huge bump behind her right ear. Then on September 9, 2004, she quietly passed away, laying on her favorite towel on the couch. She was buried in a handmade coffin lined with red velvet with her name on the front of it. I still miss her so much. I didn't have time to grieve for her, because I was taking care of my father who was also dying of a brain tumor. Rest in peace Muffy. You were truly one of a kind. God truly blessed me when he gave me 6 years to be your Mommy! Muffy was 20 1/2 years old when she died.

Be Thankful
Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire,
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know something
For it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations
Because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge
Because it will build your strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes
They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary
Because it means you've made a difference.
It is easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are
also thankful for the setbacks.
GRATITUDE can turn a negative into a positive.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles
and they can become your blessings.

Today I left for my home far away,
I'm sorry, but I just could not stay..
Hallelujah, I'm free at last,
I'm just sad I had to leave so fast.
I'll miss you mommy all my days,
Until the day you meet me when our sweet Lord says..
Thank you for all the love you gave,
For loving me every single day!
I was so sick, I hope you understand,
Thank you for the helping hand..
I send my love ,
From heaven above..
Please don't cry too much for me,
I'm no longer in pain you see..
Now I'm gone and was given wings,
With the angels, now I sing..
All the food and water here,
Nothing ever more to fear..
Sunshine and rainbows everywhere,
Running and playing I have no care..
Friends abundant and toys galore,
I cannot wait to see what else is in store..
So goodbye my mommy, only for a while,
Let me go and play as a child..
Purrs and hugs from me to you,
Thank you for giving me a life brand new!
**Muffy dabs at a tear forming in her eye** Wasn't that just beautiful? Sniff, sniff......sniffle..
