k.d.
It's difficult enough to lose one cat but to lose another in a time frame of 2 months is beyond words. I've lost my child, k.d. He passed away on Feb. 8th in his sleep. k.d. was never the same since Divinity died but I thought he would come out of her death okay. He seemed to be more social around us. I made sure he received extra attention. He wanted to be around Kazuo more often and very close to him. He allowed Kazuo to hold him, pet him which was out of character for k.d. While he was a gentle cat he was also very skidish. k.d. was still eating but not as much as he normally ate. He didn't seem to have problems using the litter box but he looked so sad. He would have been 16 on Feb. 21st. It has taken me this long to sit and write about it. My apartment feels empty without the cats. I feel as though they are still around and still expect to see a feline face when I walk in the door. As with Divinity, I thought I heard k.d.'s meow after his death.
A week or so ago I had a dream I was in my kitchen. Out of the corner of my eye I saw something flash by in the hallway. I looked out and saw k.d. there. I remember thinking in my dream that this was not possible because k.d. was dead. I looked further down the hallway and saw Divinity just outside the bathroom door. She came running over and both of them rubbed their heads against my face. I could feel them, I could smell them, I could hear them. It felt so real. When I awoke I was extremely upset and just sobbed for quite some time. I couldn't shake it. Even now it is hard to write about this. Was this a sign from them to let me know they were okay? In a way I was relieved that they looked so healthy and happy in my dream.
Rest in peace my sweet boy, k.d. I miss you terribly.
