Since my little Pipa has been gone.
I know that some people may think its dumb that people get so upset when animals die, those people must have never had an animal that was part of their family.
Today my sister told my niece Fabien and Miranda about Pipa. They were very sad about it. Even though she didnt live with them...it was still their kitty too. They shared how they felt about Pipa dying and special memories about her in a comment on my post about her. It was so sweet.
It makes me sad to think that when I go back home I wont be able to hold her and pet her like I always did when I went back home.
I have some special memories of my Pipa.
She was an outside cat for a long time. When Michelle first got her for me, my mom didnt want her in our house. So she lived across the street. Then for awhile, everytime we would open our door she would dart in the house straight to Elsie's food. And we always threw her back out. She was a great hunter. She always brought, birds, lizards and rats to our doorstep. Later I was told that she did that cuz she was trying to provide her family with food...her family being us. Eventually my mom gave in and let her be in the house. She would always jump on you and purr so loud and she would do that thing with her paws like shes giving you a massage but then she would claw you not knowing it. I remember just the last time I was at my moms house, Miranda was giving her treats, and she would stick her little paw in the bag and get the treats out her self.
Aww...I miss her so much. =(

And He Picked....

Joe Biden!
Thoughts???
My thoughts: Im not sure right now. I dont know a whole lot about him. Im a little upset that he didnt pick Hillary...even though I knew he wasnt going to. Well I hope it was a good decision. I have to now do my research about Biden and see if I like him or not. I'll get back to you with my for sure thoughts.

Who Will He Pick??

Obama has chosen his Vice Presidential running mate. I have no clue who it will be. I think he is going to announce it this Saturday in Illinois.
I hope and wish that it is Hillary, but in reality, I know that its not going to be. Wouldnt that be great though??
Oh well I just hope he makes a good choice!!

We Will Miss You Pipa

My cat for about 18 years died this morning. She was a part of our family for such a long time, you never thinking about losing her. But she was old, and lived a long, good, adventurous life, so Im happy about that. I am also glad that she passed on her own and that she didnt have to be put to sleep. My mom and John buried her in our backyard. My mom asked me what I wanted them to do with her after she died, and I told her I wanted her buried in the backyard, because I didnt want anyone to just throw her away like as if she didnt mean anything to me or us. She was my baby. When I left home, she was always there to greet me when I went back. She was such a friendly kitty. All she ever wanted was to be petted.
So now she is looking down on us with our doggies Astro and Sox.
She will be missed by all of us, but I think the one that will miss her the most is Elsie.
