Pintas the kitchen cat

It has been a very long time since anyone at this Blog has written. I have been wanting to memorialize a very sweet and endearing kitty who just passed on 9/9/06. I want to remember Pintas, the deaf kitchen cat. The moment I saw her I was smitten, first because she was deaf and yet managed to let out a soft mew whenever I went to greet her on the dining table. Little did we know she was having health problems that would turn into days of hydration and eventually she let go and went over the rainbow bridge. No one really knows how old she was, and it was speculated probably about 20 years old. That is a very long time. I'm so glad I met her, fell in love with her and was able to see her before she had to leave. Her ailing body was no longer strong enough to work properly. I will surely miss Pintas. I love you Pintas. Now you can fly.
