A Conversation Between a Crazy Cat Lady and Her Old-Guy Cat...
Dear Greymalkin,
You turned 17 this year. That's pretty old for a cat, especially for one who's had kidney failure for the last 2 and a half years.
We've been together for most of your 17 years and I know you're not going to be around too much longer. I just wanted to let you know that I'm going to miss having this conversation with you every morning:
Crazy Cat Lady: Good morning Greymalkin my darling! Still with me?
Greymalkin: *climbs onto the side of the bathtub* Yup. Pet MEEEEEE.
*pets the old guy and feels how thin he's gotten*
Crazy Cat Lady: You ok? It's not time yet? *chokes down tears*
Greymalkin: Is there tuna?
Crazy Cat Lady: *smiles* Yes, my love, there's tuna.
Greymalkin: Ok, I'm good.
I know that one of these days the conversation will end a bit differently but I cherish every day we get to have it. :)
