Tribute to stubby cat
She will be missed for her major attitude and adorable sassy cuteness. She has been the absolute best baby in the whole world. She was found while I was in graduate school on the campus and she wandered over to my vehicle looking for some help and has never left my side since. She was fixed already and chipped by someone in McAllen TX and somehow found us 800 miles away in El Paso.
She lost her tail in some story she could never tell us and she has been the stubby cat ever since. She has gone by so many different nicknames through out her 15 years w us: (1) the stublet (2) bubby (3) bubble baby (4) bubble baby beans (5) chunkleberry chins (6) bublet chublet (7) nurse bubby and (8) beans are some of the most recent.
She has been there for a decade and a half - through thick and thin. Always ready for treats, snacks, her favorites were turkey, temptations of the shrimp and lobster varieties- she would ask you for your ice cream but always end up throwing it up later on. She has kept us on a pretty tight schedule of treats - even body slamming the bedroom door on days we had the audacity to sleep in and not give her the morning treat in time. She always had food and snacks.
She’s developed a pretty aggressive growth in her nasal cavity recently and she’s so exhausted from breathing this week that we cannot bear to let her suffer for a long time - you know it’s time when there is no appetite and the litter box stays empty.
She was with us since 2012 and we found her when she was at least a year old already. She has had two doting humans staff for the last decade.
It’s pretty hard to say good bye with no words and hope they know but she’s been there through everything and been one of the very best friends for so long. She’s is loved and she will be sorely missed. We have scheduled her appointment to cross the rainbow bridge in peace at home in our arms air she doesn’t have to take the ride that everyone dreads.
