Today we had to say goodbye to our wonderful cat, Watson. One of five cats, he was the one we thought would be around the longest. This was a surprise. We think he may have had a stroke or a seizure.
Watson was totally my cat and whenever I was home he would crawl up into my lap and snuggle right up…all the time.
He was a goofy cat as well…he did funny things…and when he was overweight he could not make it through the opening in the door that we had to access our “Cat Basement” where the food is. So, he lost weight and could eat again!
But, the thing I will remember most about Watson is how close we were. He slept with me every night and he would literally crawl up next to me. He did not mind when I held him close and he would fall asleep just like that. He would get up in the night and go wondering but he was always back when I woke up (even during the night).
I think I’m going to miss that the most. I think he knew very much how much he was loved and cherished. Rest well my little friend. If pets go to heaven I’ll be seeing you!
