Earlier today, we said goodbye to our beautiful baby Coconut. I am a wreck about it. He had been with us for the last 15 years, since I was 20, and I loved that cat more than life. He was my first real pet, and up until today, my only baby for my entire adult life. A friend of mine at that time knew I had been looking for a kitten. One day she called me to let me know she had found a little, white, girl kitten with blue eyes. I went to check out this kitten that day. From the moment I saw him looking down at me from the second story window, I knew I had to have him. See, not only was Coconut not a girl like originally thought, but he was also deaf. We decided to keep him, and thank god we did. He had so much personality, just like his “smother” 😏. He used to love getting into the drag room, where he didn’t belong, and lay all in the drag. Even this morning on the way to the vet, I took him in there. He lifted his head to smell the costumes, and of course my heart broke. He always loved it. He was a very active cat that loved to play, wrestle, and run around. He loved all of my cooking, especially my sweet treats. Over the last 15 years we had so much fun, and I could not be more grateful. I was at home with him more than I wasn’t. He was my best friend, that I made sure to spoil in every way I could. He would hold me, or come to give kisses whenever I was going through it. I worried about him more than myself most days. He was our child, and we treated him as such. He was protective over us, much like the way a dog would be, and turns out, was always THE only judge of character I needed. I will miss him so much. Thank you kitty for the last 15 years. I love you and I loved being your Smother ❤️❤️❤️
