His cat has been in my life for 12 years. That last a little more than half my life. We got him before we moved from California to Washington. At first he was a little viscous and mean but he still liked us. He was just a kitten and one of the other cats we had decided to be motherly to him. He had a good life with us and was a good companion these last twelve years. He’s been my best friend when no human could be. As he grew older he got more cuddly. When I came back from Indonesia a couple months ago I thought he wouldn’t snuggle me the way he did, but as soon as I got home he crawled up me and cuddled more than usual 💚 and from then on he wouldn’t leave me alone. My mom and I found him outside in his favorite spot dead. I e never experienced my stomach drop the way it did. As if I suddenly had 1,000 pound weights tied to it and was pulled by gravity.

My Sam! You will be forever missed and loved everyday!

A few days ago

I got to video chat with him when I was in Indonesia

He had some skin issues so this is him cuddling me after getting some medicine on his skin

He was such a beautiful cat 💚

He liked to watch people play video games with me

And of course, he loved snuggles with his brother and my homework
