Muddy Mae, it has taken me a while to try and find the words to express how much you mean to me and how much I love you. My heart is broken without you and you will always have a piece of my heart with you.
I was not originally looking for a cat to adopt. I was just scrolling through the humane society’s website out of curiosity but then I remember seeing you. Your tongue was out, you looked so tiny and scared. The description said you were 15-years-old. Something about that picture just drew my attention to you and I knew I had to meet you. I remember the workers saying you had been there for 9 months and I was the only person to ask for a visit with you. You only had two teeth and your tongue slightly poked out because of that. I will never understand how everyone overlooked you, it was definitely love at first sight for me.
You grew to be my best friend. I remember the day I brought you home and I will always remember the day you left. You brought me so much happiness with all those days in-between. You were with me just over two years but I feel even if I had you a lifetime, it wouldn’t have been enough time with you.
I’m trying to think of my favorite memory together but they all brought me so much happiness that I don’t think I could pick just one. I love how you stole the hearts of everyone who met you; even people who said they did not like cats ended up loving you.
I am happy you are no longer hurting. You fought so hard at the end. I know that everyone will miss you. You helped me so much. I know these words will not truly reflect how much I love you and miss you because I just simply cannot find the words. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about you. I love you so much Muddy Mae and I always will.
