Our Loving Cat, Tabitha, Passed

 
Our Beloved Tabby

Our Beloved Tabby

She was 18.5 years old, a most precious kitty.  Our beloved “Tabby” passed on August 19, 2007.  We got “Tabby” when she was about a year old on Valentine’s Day, 1990.  At that time we lived in the suburbs of Chicago in Naperville IL.  I had cats growing up, but this was the first for my husband, Kendall.  Kendall was a “dog person”.

When we brought her home, she was scared as this was a new environment.  Kendall tried to pet her a couple of times and she hissed at him while batting her paw:)  Kendall was afraid of her.  But, Tabby soon became acclimated and spent the next 17.5 years of her life with us.  She was an extremely personable kitty – almost like a dog – wanting to be wherever we were.  And, my husband became a “cat person”, too. We love her very much; she’s with her sister Blackie who passed six years earlier.  As it says in the Bible in James 1:17, “Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.”  Truly these pets were a gift from God to us.
