Abigail In Memoriam

I got this email from my daughter tonight:

"My sweet kitty passed away today after 21 years.

She was one in a million and it's hard to imagine life without her. Anyone who met her knew how amazing she was...sweet, sassy, always ready to snuggle and purr.

She was in excellent health until the end; no suffering- always dignified (we should all be so lucky!)

Such a sweetheart- may she rest in peace.

Abigail Williams Paine
October 31, 1989-May 9, 2011"

I took this picture last summer. This is how I will remember this dear friend and companion of my daughter.
