In Memoriam

Kitty (aka The White One aka El Chiquiado) has gone onto cat heaven it seems. Almost two weeks and no sign of him. In my experience living in Boyle Heights, if a pet disappears for more than a few days, this usually means it bit the dust or it found a home that feeds it better. Either way, our cat is gone. It's sad a little. He was playful and silly while his brother (aka The Fat One) is more stand-offish and rude. For reasons I think we may never understand, Kitty provided a certain comfort. All he did was lay around (ah, the life of a cat) and beg for food. But somehow, seeing him everyday, doing his cat thing, everything seemed right in the world.

So wherever you are Kitty, here's to you.....may you rest (or live in a nicer neighborhood) in peace.
