Tribute to Tootsie

I received a new charger for my camera yesterday!! The first thing that I did after charging the camera was take a look at some of the pictures that I had stored on it. I guess I could have looked at them on the computer anyway, but I didn’t really think about them until I saw the chip today.

I came across some of the pictures of my cat Tootsie. She passed away three weeks ago tomorrow. She was almost 15, and I received her as a gift from my late grandmother who gave her to me on Easter Sunday; so she was really special for several reasons. One of these reasons being that Tootsie was born blind, but this never stopped her from being the queen of the house!!

Tootsie was also born with extra toes (the reason for her name), so she looked like she was wearing mittens. She was definitely a spitfire! She was one mean cat machine! You didn’t want to mess with her sleeping schedule!

So it was really nice to see pictures of all the pets, but it was especially nice to see Tootsie when she was at her best, not what was she had been like the last few weeks of her life. I’m going to miss my first cat, but I still have Weezie. She’s special in her own little way, but that’s a story for later!!
