My Indy Kitty

Well soon after Midnight had the kittens our family Cat of 18 years started to go down hill fast. On a Friday she went to jump up on my dads truck to greet him and didn't jump high enough and hit the head lights. The rest of the weekend he could hardly move! I drove up to Morgan to give my last hug and kisses! Boy am I going to miss this fur ball!! He was in my family for most of my life! It was hard to believe he would not be around much longer. Monday morning my parents made the decision to put him down. They could not watch him suffer anymore. What a great Cat! I will forever miss him and one day hope to see him again! He was buried out under the apple tree with my grandparents dog tiny lies too. I wrote a poem and here are some pictures of him!

He was sooo pretty! 

One of his last days; he wanted to lay with the kittens! Their Mama was not amused! 


We Will Never Forget
 We will never forget that day when your blue eyes and beautifully colored mane entered our home. When everything we did around you seemed like a game and scratches were the result of your victory.
We will never forget how you added many smiles to our face when you would run into the mirrors as if it were an enemy trying to get your family. You protected our family from strays and paid the price time and time again.
We will never forget how much patience you had when we dressed you up and strolled you around as if you were baby doll, when we moved you from house to house, and when we added new pets for you to put up with.
We will never forget when someone tried to take your life and you fought to keep it and the long recovery you indured. We loved to hold you and carry you around the house constantly, it’s no wonder you put on a few pounds.
We will never forget the pounds you put on. That extra fluff allowed us to have lots of extra snuggles and we loved when you would let us lie on your tummy and take a nap.
We will never forget the endless boxes you played in, the laughs from the crazy things you would do, the funny places we would find you sleeping, and continually begging for food at the dinner table.
We will never forget the morning wake up calls, many cans of consumed cat food, and the bell ringing on the front door to let you out, and the call to come in for the night.
We will never forget the last 17 years we had with you and all the fun memories you brought to our family.
You will never be forgotten.
Love you, Indiana “INDY” Jones
