Considering Lucy has been with me longer and more closely than any other living being on the planet

Including parents and my brother... I just really am scared to lose her.

I guess I will grow from it. It's inevitable. But she is basically my baby and I will lose her in the next few years. Kinda scary.

I will be okay. It is a long time for her. I hope I have made her happy.

I've lost too many dogs and cats over the years. Even the short lived hamsters and guinea pigs. A beautiful little lopped ear bunny named Thumper too young from an alergy. That little thing was a people bunny. So named because he did that hind foot thumping thing when attention was coming.
Everyone of the loses hurt deep.
Now of my 3 I have this girl who on the chair arm next to 3 to 4 times a day just for a few minutes of pets. She's 13. 4 years older than her canine and feline brother and sister.
I have the same thoughts and feelings as you concerning her. She was her mom's kitty and when mom was gone her entire personality changed.
