This was Sweets, aka Sweets Petites From the Streets Who Eats Treats, aka Sweetie. We sent her over the rainbow bridge this past Monday, as she was in a losing battle with tongue cancer. We gave her the best life we could. It feels like the world was always stacked against her, but she was a fighter. She had the voice of an elderly smoker, and she was part of our little framily.

She will be missed. We’re in the process of setting up a tiny shrine for her ashes, as well as a bit of jewelry to keep her with us at all times.

        You’re welcome! Years ago I lost a cat after ~2 years, she was the weirdest cat I’ve ever seen, but she was amazing. You could see her sleeping in the weirdest position you could ever imagine and she would follow you everywhere. I miss her so much! Now I have a void cat and even though she’s silly, she kind of reminds me of her sometimes.

    I have the exact same cat pillow, and almost the exact same cat.

    I’m sorry for your loss.
