Britti the Tabby Cat

21st May 1996 to 29th December 2002

From Heather Heiden

Brittany, Britti, Arm Pitty, BG, Baby Girl, Big Girl, and Brittany Marie when you were in trouble! By whatever name you were called, you answered to them all. For such a small creature, you had a big presence. You came into my life when I needed you the most. You were a friend, a trusted companion, a teacher, and a healer. You were my companion through many tears and joys, you gave me comfort when I needed it and you calmed my soul. I will miss your funny ways, your paw on my hand, the way you would watch me put on my makeup every morning, the way you would meow when you wanted the bathtub faucet turned on so you could drink from it. I will miss your little love bites on my head at 4:30am on a Saturday morning to wake me up because you were hungry or wanted to play. I will miss waking up to little white powdered doughnuts scattered across the floor because you snagged the bag and had a little midnight snack. I will miss you staring at me and meowing your 'I want to play' meow with a foam disk, rattling mouse (with no tail since you always bite them off!) or your favorite pompom mouse in your mouth. It's so hard to come home when you aren't waiting for us at the door, meowing, rolling over and showing us you spotted orange belly, expecting us to drop whatever we had and give you tummy rubs...which we normally did. You were such a good big sister to Zoë, she misses you and your snuggles so much. I know in my heart you lived a good life- but I was not ready to let you go so soon. You were so young yet, I have peace knowing you are comfortable. I hope you know that I was by your side and held you and loved you until your last breath. Britti Girl, know that we love you so much, there is something missing in our home, it just isn't the same without you. We will see each other again and the many wonderful memories will fill the time between. 

We love you Britti, rest in peace. Love, Mommy & Daddy
