A big, little cat

With a great deal of sadness, we said goodbye to our third member of the household on Saturday. LC/Elsie was a little cat with a huge personality. We were honoured to be her “humans”.

Many of the residents, in our small coastal neighborhood, knew -and enjoyed – our little cat. She reveled in the relatively safe environment that was offered here. A tracking device on her collar helped with location. She lived the best of lives. Indoors. Outdoors. She would often come with us on walks but enjoyed her private adventures as well. A brave little soul. Nothing seemed to phase her. Every day included something fun!

Lap time was a necessary element on a daily basis and LC ensured we both had equal opportunity. She insisted we slow down and give her the attention she required. We like to think it was good for us as well.

A huge thank you to “Resting Paws” – Dr Vanessa and Ashleigh – for the wonderful care you gave to our beloved companion. Her final journey was so peaceful, gentle and dignified. She fell asleep on my lap, and in my arms, listening to the gentle breeze and twittering of birds. It was a beautiful end-of-journey.

Very grateful for this unique service. Yes… “she was just a cat” but to us she was so much more.
