After years and years of observed behavior that absolutely defied all feline logic, I always had a sneaking suspicion that my dear old cat wasn’t a cat at all but some kind of shape-shifting alien who happened to gene-lock on the first assimilated creature it came into contact with. Either that or some kind of badger-skunk-water-rat hybrid of a Moreau-nian nature. Regardless of origin, over those same years she grew very, very dear to me. And after fifteen years of co-habitation, I lost my boon companion due to mounting medical woes. And I still miss her. I still miss her a lot.

Unless my cats are there to welcome me.”
