I sit here with tear filled eyes and an empty feeling that I can’t seem to shake. I can’t speak with out breaking into tears. I can’t Type either. I never realized how a cat can touch my heart so much. Bianca was born here and has been my friend and comfort for over 9 years. Today she lost her battle with liver disease. I never thought this would hurt so much. It’s 3:30 am and I can’t sleep. Can’t think. Just needed to express this, didn’t know where else to do so. This cat knew when I was upset and would come comfort me. She would greet me when I got home, walk me to the door when I leave and meow for a quick rub on my way out the door. She would chill and watch Netflix with me. She loved the smell of “California smoke” when ever it was around. She would follow me to the kitchen every day just to ask for a snack and would sit on command (only if you have a snack in hand) she would come when you call her like a dog. Her sweet temperament was like no other cat I’ve known. Life will be different without her. She has been there for me through some rough times- even if she didn’t know she was... Some may say it’s odd or silly to get so attached to a cat- but I feel like I lost a family member today.
