a goodbye to our riley cat

Yesterday, we said goodbye to our cat Riley. She was almost 12 years old and was our first furbaby. My husband and I got her just a few short months after we met, so she’s been a part of us for almost as long as there has been an ‘us’. She’s been with us through so many of our big life moments… two moves, our engagement, our wedding, the addition of two dogs, job changes, the birth of our baby girl, and some really deep loss. And though she was shy and skittish, she was a constant on Kev’s lap as he watched the news each morning and curled up on our bed at night. She was the start of our family, and losing her has been very hard.

Riley cat… you will be missed.

    I am so sorry to hear about your loss…pets sure do become a HUGE part of our lives and it is so hard to lose them. My colleague just lost her 17 year old cat and she got him as her and her husband got together too…brings tears to my eyes.
