One year ago on July 13th 2007 our sweet kitty Sassy passed away. I still miss her so much! We adopted her from the local animal shelter on June 7th 2002. She was so tiny and sweet! We went through several names before finally deciding on Sassy. The name just fit her so well, there was really no other choice! LOL
She was only 5 years old when she passed away. We thought we would have her around a lot longer than that. She got sick very quickly, and we took her to the vet on Friday July 13th, and the vet called 3 hours later and told us she didn't make it. I wish I had stayed with her. It makes me cry every time I think about her being alone when she passed away!
People can't seem to understand why I still get emotional when I talk about her, but she was our baby. She was the first kitty my husband and I adopted together and I will always miss her. Friends still ask when I'm going to "replace" her. She can't be "replaced"! She was a member of our family!!!
Tiger Lily is so used to being the only kitty now that bringing in another brother or sister for her would be hard. I know she misses Sassy too. I'm sure we will adopt another kitty some day, but I'm still not ready yet.
If any one happens to read this and you have a "fur-kid" at home ;-) please give them a extra hug in memory of Sassy!

Thanks Trace! I'm glad I have Tiger Lily to keep my mind off it most of the time, but with it being one year ago this week, she has been on my mind a lot!
