Actually not much of a story, one of our dear sweet kittens (Bella) passed away suddenly. There isn’t much of an explanation, apparently she must have been sick before we got her and she just couldn’t survive.
I was/am a total mess. I loved that kitty and I want her back. I guess I’m a real sap about those kind of things, my pets are family to me, and losing one of them has been a truly awful experience.
We couldn’t leave poor Claire by herself so we went back and bought her sister. We named her Pam (after the TV show the office).
Here is dear sweet, hyper Pammie.
Here is a picture of Claire
And of course Annyoung
I love my kitties.
(Bella, miss you.)

I’m saddened to hear that your kitten passed away! I, as well, am one who considers his pets as family. I also like the name for your new kitty. If you got a boy kitten, is there a character from ‘The Office’ you’d name him after? Or perhaps some after something even more nostalgic from your youth?*
*I named my very first kitten ‘Harry’ after ‘Harry and the Hendersons’, which was a favorite of mine growing up. My brother got a kitten at the same time. It was Harry’s sister, and he named her ‘Sherlock’, after Sherlock Holmes…

Ah Ben, if we had a boy kitty his name would be Shrute.

I have a friend and her newest pet is a siamese cat as well. I bet she’ll be sad too if it die. Man, she loves the cat sooo much.
