Noelle
I rather reluctantly took in Noelle 8 years ago when asked to do so by a dear dying friend. I already had two cats and did not want more. Oh, my husband and I would have missed so much had Noelle not become a part of our lives. She came to us leash trained and loved her walks around the yard. On bad weather days, she would hop in the car for slow drives in the neighborhood where she would put her front paws on the dash and look all around. She was the smartest cat--she thoughtfully watched everything and anything. She would check out anyone who came to visit but was not one of those cats to jump on strangers’ laps—my lap was the only one she ever deigned to sit on, and I was her “go to” person for scritches and scratches and pets. She would sit and watch my husband at work outside as though pondering the what and why of it. Once when having windows washed on the outside she went from room to room on the inside staring out at the worker as he moved around the house—he got a good laugh out of it. I was heartbroken when she was diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease, and I knew her time with us would not be as long as I had hoped. On the one hand it seems like she was here forever, and other the other hand it seems like it was a moment. She was always loved and will never be forgotten.
