Bobbie And Bubba
Member Since 2015
You came to us on October 20, 2008 after my friend Karen trapped you on her farm. She had been feeding you for months. She gave you the medical attention you needed as you had been in a fight and was pretty cut up and very malnutrition and under -weight. She knew we had just lost our Siamese cat, Sug, 3 months prior and our hearts were still healing, but at her insistence with her “Cat Return Policy ” if you didn’t work out, talked us in to bringing you into our household.
It’s the best thing I ever did. You completed our family.
You were a love from the minute you arrived and you and Bubba were fast friends within 3 days. Lucy took some time to come around; she liked to bark at you and chase you down the hall. We would all call out, “Run, Forrest, Run!” In no time you had won her over too with snuggles and spit- shines; the fur gang were all cleaner after you arrived as you became the resident bather.
I have never met a cat so brave. You weren’t afraid of anything or anyone. You stood up to the large yellow lab next door that sent Bubba hiding. You greeted everyone at the door which gave you the nickname of “The Walmart Greeter”. Whenever you were in pain with your many medical issues you were so stoic. You tried to teach Bubba to “fly under the radar” as you had learned being a stray and not to be a whiner. Whenever he would cry, you would pounce on him and bite his scruff as a mother cat would do to teach her kitten.
You tried hard to keep up with Bubba. The vision of you trailing after him as he would go hunt will be imprinted in my memory for a very long time. Whenever I would go looking for Bubba to test him, you would leave the kitchen door stoop and walk along with me. You were never too far away from the house almost as if you never wanted to be lost again.
The volume of your purrs was second to none. Nighttime is quiet without you loudly purring in my ear. We miss seeing you in all your favorite spots and I keep expecting you to pop up out of the hostas when I pull into our driveway.
Our hearts are broken yet full of the love we shared with you. Forever with us, Dear Forrest. Until we meet again.
