I'll miss you itty bitty..

I can't let go.

Honestly, I don't want to. How do you let go of a cat that you've only had for 4 months?


Baby Saffron.

She was a little older when we got her, but not by much.


And she barely had any teeth.


She would always come and jump all over my laptop when I was using it.


And now I'd give anything to have her jump all over my laptop again.




I don't truly understand how a 6 month old kitten can die from congestive heart failure. I don't think I ever will.

I am forever plagued with the memory of the beauty and love that saffron gave me. Plagued because it wasn't enough. Plagued because her metaphorically big heart turned into a literal big heart, which drained the life from her kitty. Looking at her sister is bittersweet.

My mom says I've been through 'worse' tragedies. Maybe I have, but this is slowly killing my insides. I went to Banfield, then to the Vet ER. I spent the whole day there. First with low hopes, then high, then bonecrushing low. If I had more money, I probably would have tried my damnedest to prevent the inevitable. However, considering the doctor told us that she probably wouldn't survive the night... I don't know what money could have done. She was feisty to the end, but her heart was just too big.

Good bye my itty bitty. Khoshgelan eh man.
