I had a cat once, Tasha was her name, I loved that cat.
When I was crying in my early years, she would lay down beside me in my crib,
and I would stop crying and start to suck my thumb....
When I got older she would sleep in my bed with me at night...we had a great
relationship, but then in 97' we found out she had a kidney disorder and she
wouldn't live past christmas, so we did the humane thing...we put her down...
Well I'll always have the memories....
