Dec.22 was the 5th anniversary of the loss of
"Fission". She was the best cat anyone could
ever hope to live with. Smart, well behaved,
affectionate, and sexy as a cat could ever be
(I often looked at her waving that beautiful tail
at me and thought "Damn, I wish I could be a
cat for a day").
Strange...it seems like we lost her just yesterday,
and yet it also seems like a lifetime ago.
Even stranger....That evening something spooked
the hell out of "TK". He suddenly got all hunched
up and bushed out like he saw something in
the den with my wife and me. Just staring wide
eyed at something that we couldn't see but
was certainly upsetting him. We've never seen
him act like that, before. I looked at my wife and
asked "what the hell's got him so spooked".
"Maybe Fission's visiting us.....Hi Fiz", my wife
said. Then I found myself looking at the spot
TK was staring at and saying "We miss you,
Sweetheart". Whatever TK saw seemed to move
to my feet....to my wife's feet.....and then towards
TK who was hunched up in the hallway where he
nervously backed up, still hunched up and wide
eyed. His eyes followed something into the
livingroom (Left turn from the hallway) where he
stared for a couple more minutes. Then he
nervously walked into the den to join us and settled
in on his favorite chair.
I've never believed in that supernatural, ghost,
sh.t before....but now....I'm not so sure.
I feel a little silly posting this, but I can't explain
what happened.

Things like this have been reported to many times for me to dismiss it out
of hand.

Purrs for Fission, you and your wife.

Hugs,

I remember other posts you made about Fission, and
I remember thinking that you conveyed quite well the
flirty charms of what I call girlycats. :) They flirt with
men, they really do. My girlycats give the men in my life
a totally different look than they give me, and their
body language is different too. It says, "ooo, he smells
like a BOY I *like* boys, come here big fella."

P.S.--this is the place you come to when you might feel
silly elsewhere talking about your cats. We are all of us
stupid over these wonderful creatures.

PPSS--Once love is created it never goes away, not
even when the flesh does. Bet you knew that.

Our Odessa, normally a shy and elusive girl, is brazen around men, the little
hussy. Fission reminds me of her, from the description. Around my husband or any
of our guy friends, she does that little sex-kitten strut with her tail high up
in the air, and I swear she swings her little butt like a teenager in tight
designer jeans. I'm reminded of a Tom & Jerry cartoon where Tom's trying to get
on an ocean liner to score some Jerry for lunch, and is sidetracked by this
delectable fluffy white Persian with a come-hither look in her eyes, who walks
the same way, that Mae West strut. Our Stosh, on the other hand, is a ladies'
man and is all over anyone in a skirt. I'm convinced that they can tell the
genders apart somehow. Maybe they smell hormones?

Amen!

When we put our Fritzie to sleep two years ago, my husband said he saw the
animals of my childhood who were long gone, and he had never seen them. Yet he
described them in such detail you'd have thought we'd been neighbors from the
cradle. We've never experienced visits from Fritzie, but we think he tells
things to our four feline masters. "Stosh, I used to swing on Mama's hair when I
was a kid. Try it; it's loads of fun." "Odessa, they miss seeing a black cat by
my old heater. Go ahead, you can use it. You'll be nice and cozy and Mama and
Daddy will feel better about me being gone with another black cat there."
"Brandy, if you wan't Mama's attention rustle some plastic shopping bags. It
drives her BATS!" "Be assertive, Roxie; don't let Mama put away the clothing, so
you can sleep in it like I used to." And they listen. I think that, when Fritzie
"retired," he got bored so the Big Boss gave him the job of Foreman to our four.
We will always love and miss him, but I've learned that the best way to honor
him is to give our love to his kindred.

Blessed be
Baha

That's a great analogy! Fission's flirting was
just like that except she would only do it for
me. I was her guy.
And any girl, except my wife, that looked like
she was getting too friendly with me would
get a cautionary growl from Fiz.
I really miss that cat.

Just like humans, domesticated animals like dogs and cats are affected by
the health hazards of modern living.

Don't feel silly.  I swear my cat Dash, who had gone on to the Bridge
several months before, was with me when I was coming out of anesthesia.  I
know I was in a hazy state, but she was laying on me, purring like she would
do when I wasn't feeling well.  It was so real.

These are such sweet stories!  I lost my little boy, Umberto, 2 months
ago.  He was so sweet and loving, I hope I can see him again some day.
