Five years ago, we rescued little Stinky Pete from the alley behind my apartment in Michigan. He filled our lives with love and PURRS for the time he was with us, which we still think was way too brief.
He left us this past winter, suddenly and unexpectedly, and left a great big tuxie hole in our hearts. We remember him every day, but today, especially, on his Gotcha Day - this day five years ago when his tiny plaintive cries in a tool shed alterted us to his stinky little presence in the alley. He made us smile that day, and every day he was with us here in this realm, and we still think of him and smile fondly. We miss you, Peter Peter, and you'll always be a part of our hearts.

If Pete could, he'd thank you endlessly and say, "Hey, it was fun while it lasted!" Hugs and purrs

Happy Gotcha Day, Stinky Pete! You made such a big impression, and you would be so very proud of how NTM and iDaddy are fostering kittens who need homes just like you did five years ago.
ReplyDeleteLots of purrs and hugs to NTM and iDaddy today from all of us.
We fondly remember the day Stinky Pete walked into your lives. He reminded us so much of our Squalling Baby. Hugs to NTM and iDaddy.
ReplyDeletePurrs from us as you remember Pete's gotcha day. These first "anniversaries" after our companions pass are particularly difficult.
ReplyDeleteHas it really been 5 years since you found Pete? Time passes so quickly with our furries. And it's so hard when we lose one.
ReplyDeletePurrs to you today. We miss adorable little Pete too.
ReplyDeleteAw, what a sweet kitten photo. Hugs to you from us.
