In the loving memory of Si Kucing was written at 3:24 PM
6 years. Thats how long we were together. Thats a significant one third of my life. They say you never miss your water till your well runs dry. Too right it is.I regretted not spending more time with you.
I regretted not feeding you those marketed cat foods yet you were fine.
I regretted never giving you a bath yet you were clean. Youre thick white coat never failed to gleam.
What we had was special. An undeniable silent bond shared between two creatures created by God. Words were never exchanged but yet I knew you trusted me. I was the only person you allowed to pet you.
I remember how you scratched me cause you were annoyed that I was disturbing your ears. I remember how you saved Dad from a snake. I remember you accompanying me as I stroll around the garden. I remember how you liked it when I rub behind your ears. I remember how you liked jumping around as I dangle a dried leaf to your face.
The memories I have of you were not much, but they meant a lot to me.
It never occured to me your time on Earth was short. How was I supposed to know. My last memory of you was me feeding you but you didnt eat much. After that I saw you standing on four limbs, staring into the house. Was that a sign? I guess so.
Im just thankful enough that you werent run down by a car or worse yet, eaten by a dog.
May God bless your soul as you rest in peace in heaven.
Reminiscing the sweet memories of Si Kucing,

You got me XOXO,
