Coloration: Tabby and White
Likes: I absolutely adore my brother Tyler. I'm also best friends with my doggie brother Pooh. I also love my Aunty Maxcy a lot.
Pet-Peeves: All the other cats in this house
Favorite Toy: Anyting on a string - despite the fact that I may be in my senior years, I can still play as well as these kids
Favorite Nap Spot: Curled up on the "cat" chair with Tyler, on top of my mum's black convertible where my discarded white hair shows up REALLY well!
Favorite Food: Pooh shares his cooked chicken with me every day and I LOVE tuna out of the can! In a pinch I will condescend to eat Friskies and Prairie or Wellness kibble for cats
Skills: Frankly my greatest skill is rising above all the daily chaos... I'm also pretty good at putting the "younsters" Katrina and Caney in their places whenever appropriate - which is almost all the time, between you and me
Dwells:
indoors and outdoors
Arrival Story: I was born in the Cayman Islands like my brother Tyler, but I was unlucky enough to be born a stray. However, I don't want you to think I'm anything but a Caribbean Princess! I lived and strutted on the beach for 4 months until a kind man picked me up and took me to my mum's boss's house to live with him and his family. Unfortunately it soon became clear that my dad was extremely allergic to me and so he asked my new mum to take me in. At the time, my mum had 5 cats already so figured another one wouldn't make much difference. One day, she came in her car to pick me up and took me to my new home. I wasn't happy at first because I was very confused and the other cats scared me, but soon Tyler became my very best friend, and then I knew everything was gonna be alright!
Bio: Just like Tyler, I moved with our mum to the British Virgin Islands where we had lots of fun prowling in the tropical jungle around our house, chasing tarantulas, lizards and HUGE RATS to our hearts content. Then we moved to Florida and my mum found us a great dad! He's so nice I occasionally let him brush my coat, but to be honest, not often as I have to keep up my DIVA pretences. I am now enjoying a leisurely retirement but I am still a Caribbean Princess because I've never forgotten my reggae roots. If only my human parents hadn't decided to adopt those darn kittens!!!
UPDATE: Today Feb 18, 2009, Missy flew to the Rainbow Bridge. She flew fast and high and didn't tell us she was going. We will miss her terribly, our Caribbean princess

I knew Tyler would be with me again soon, but I didn't know it would be SO soon...
I am the happiest of angels now that I am once again with my beloved brother, but I am sad for my family. This has been a terrible year of losses for them. I am trying to watch over them, and promise to take Tyler under my wing until he finds his own angel powers.
For now, we are both hanging close to our pawrents until we can be sure they will be ok. Then it will be time to fly, fly, fly...
My mum came out to my garden to have a quiet talk to me today. She told me how much Tyler misses me, how much it has affected his physical well-being.
I know this to be true.
She switched on my pretty garden spinner to make rainbow arcs over my garden, and thought quietly for a while. She asked me to come visit Tyler in his dreams, like I do her sometimes, to help Tyler understand that I am at peace, to not remember how I died but how we lived happily together; to let him know he can heal and that I will always be in his heart.
We will be together again one day my truest friend.
BUT NOT YET!
Today would have been my 16th birthday on Earth!
Like I've said before, for a kitty who has had many adventures, that's quite a feat...
Although my mum would dearly love to have celebrated with me as an earth kitty with all the usual treats and hugs and kisses, she has to content herself with memories of how I used to be.
I watched her water my garden today, and smile through the tears as she remembered me. This morning I watched my dad stoke my purple trankie blankie where I used to lay (next to him) and wish aloud that I was still there...
These things are normal for humans, I have learned. But my mum also knows that it was me who paid her a special visit the other day, me who meowed my special meow so she would turn around, and glimpse me out of the corner of her eye, sitting upon the bed in my usual place. I made sure to vanish when she looked again, mol.
So you see, being an angel has its advantages! Today at the Bridge I spent my earth-birthday chasing clouds and other angels, and zooming down to watch my family.
Thank you all for not forgetting me.It has touched my mum's heart deeply to know how much you all care, and to read the lovely messages and rosies I have received today.
I am still here mum, dad, special friends... I will never be far away from your hearts.
Love,
Missy angel
