    Cats are amazing pets.

    Cats are amazing pets and these little loves fill our lives with joy. Do you have a pet ? What would you consider when trying to adopt one ? Do you actually know that being a pet owner is one of the marvelous deeds in this world ? Their cute faces, just mesmerizes our souls.

    Cats

    For the longest time in my life, i have loved cats. My first cat, Ringo …… i adopted him as a kitten.  Everyone loved Ringo ……. neighbors too. He was charming, potty trained and loving. Its like he cancelled all the stresses of life ahhhh….. Unfortunately one day, he never came back. Someone catnapped my fur baby.

    Then came along Blackie, he had a different personality……..

    Welcoming these fur babies into our furmilies can be the best decision ever for any ”hooman” to make.

    The warm cuddles, the fun and games, them judging everything you do, isn’t that cute ? Having one will definitely mean, you got to work harder than before. Wake up in the middle of the night just to feed them their snacks, hiding your legs under the blanket from sudden “cattacks”, lol ……….they just pounce on your  feet, unbothered and unannounced.

    Long ago, having a cat was solely meant for chasing away rats, mice and snakes. Most cats never took trips to see vets. Nowadays, that has entirely changed. Being a responsible owner, it requires you to ensure that your fur baby is well taken care of. You should be up to date with their immunizations, checkups and also neutering/spaying them in order to contain the population of strays.

    Some few months ago, i came across a wonderful group on Facebook  Cat Lovers Kenya .  Being a member there is rejuvenating. I just don’t know what goes on my mind when i go through the posts made by wonderful Purrents.

    The fur babies have a way of helping one overcome trauma, depression…..

    You converse with them as you would to your fellow human. Someone might label you as that crazy cat person, but hey, who cares ?

    For me, i can gladly say that … if i had another chance, i would be having a dozen of cats at my place, save for the severe allergic reactions….. Sad!

    Lastly, its a shame that we have people out here, who breed them. Has it occurred to you that there are so many cats who need homes ? Why breed/buy when you can adopt ? What happens next ? Same as those who adopt and later on, dump these wonderful babies, why would you do that ? Before adopting, kindly search your soul first.

    Honestly, i do not know what to say but …….. Seeing those cats and their escapades makes my day brighter.

    Have a look at these wonderful pictures, shared from the group Cat Lovers Kenya . Enjoy

    My comeback was through grief ……..

    Grief ? How well can a person cope with grief ?

    I had taken a break from this site, citing “finding my purpose” and “direction”. Each day I kept on postponing writing the contents I had in mind.

    Right now, I am a skull of what I was. Empty inside, emotionally deprived. I just don’t know how to cope with the pain, not physical pain but emotional pain.

    Having prayed for a miracle, change in life. Little did I know that the miracle I was praying for was coming to snatch away my mentor, my Mother!

    I try to tell myself, she is in a better place at the moment, but no…. that was untimely. She had promised to come and “Rest” as soon as the planting season was complete. Complaining that the rains had delayed. Oh mom, was this a goodbye ?

    The day you were laid to rest, the heavens opened. It poured, never stopped!

    Our pillar has completely been destroyed. No one can replace you.

    You were unique in your own ways. You have done so much for us.

    Always fought to see us succeed and earnestly prayed for us  your children, to make it in life.

    No one expected this to hit us, the shock, the anguish…… emptiness that filled our hearts.

    All we have are now memoirs of what you used to be.

    My nights are never the same, nor my days. I try to be strong but, how well can one cope with grief ?

    You gave us the best. Fell from side to side to see us stand firm. Your legacy still stands still. Shosh to everyone.

    The giver, everyone’s friend, the patient one, peace maker, the counselor, a mother, Shosh …… the

    Final Home for a loving Mother.

    greatest Teacher, ever.

    Even during your last days, you hid the pain. Kept talking as normal. Drank your favorite “cold” soda. Slept, and off you went.

    Loosing a parent, is one of the worst things to ever happen.

    You always did pray to never bury any of your children. God heard you, we were the ones that had to bury you, Mom.

    I did not know, my comeback here will have to do with your death.

    To me, you rested too early. You could have waited a bit longer. The doors were opening wider. Greatness was soon happening.

    This pain is unexplained.

    We now have to celebrate your life, your sacrifices and legacy, I promise will live on.

    Rest in Peace Mom.

    Watch over us, your children. I miss you, we miss you.

    Now that you are closer to God, your prayers are directly conveyed.

    Help us get through this.
