She'd been stuffed into a burlap sack as a kitten and then tossed over their 8 foot tall fence in back.
They called her Hydrox, and she was the free roaming window cat.
This was a month or two after the death of my previous cat, and it was my parents who went loking for another cat for me.
*sigh*
If I'd had my way at the time, I wouldn't have HAD another cat.
It was pretty bad losing Mimi the way I did.
She'd eaten a wasp that'd been sprayed with a choleo-intestinase inhibitor.
And it took three months to kill her, and by the time we'd figured out what happened, it was too late.
She died of, I think, kidney failure.
By the time it was figured out, she died in her sleep after making the rounds and saying goodbye.
Pretty rough to deal with.

I'm sorry about Mimi. The passing of a pet is always hard. They are family.
I'm glad you have Kearen to love on you. It was a year after my 4 yr old Sterling kitty died, before I wanted another kitty friend.
