Izzy DaBig Giant Kitty<\/p><\/div>\n

My big kitty\u00a0Izzy passed away<\/a>\u00a0yesterday morning. I\u2019m happy he\u2019s free from discomfort and is on to his next evolutionary stage. The first thing I do when there\u2019s a change in the household is to clean and rearrange everything, and do a smudging of the space.\u00a0 As I opened the first can of food for my YinYang, I realized she prefers the dry (and the outside buffet) so she eats only about 1\/3 can twice a day.\u00a0 I wondered if she would miss Izzy, always hissing as he went by. Like me, she prefers to stay off by herself.\u00a0 As humans, we imagine our pets have the same emotions and thoughts about<\/p>\n

things as we do.\u00a0 Silly, they adapt, they go with the flow. Last night, she followed me as I did my nightly walk around the hood.\u00a0 Later, in the recliner, she jumped in my lap and let me pet her.\u00a0 When I dozed and awoke 3 hours later, she was sleeping across my chest.\u00a0 After an hour\u2019s sitting meditation, I called her as I went into bed.\u00a0 As I was drifting back off to sleep, I felt her jump up and snuggle onto the pillow around my head.\u00a0 Kitties know.<\/p>\n
