In Memory of a Kitty

So on May 1st, 2009 I had to put my Vader-Kitty down.  He was my best friend and it took me a long time to get through losing him.  Since it has been a year now I want to do a tribute type thing (album or something) for him.  I don't have too many pictures of him, I have hardly anything left of him.  So I decided to commission artists for art of him.  I don't have any monies so I'm doing this on gaiaonline, roliana, and zantarni where I have virtual monies.  I have been at this a couple of days and today I got a great response.  I'm pretty much cleaned out of gaia gold, and I have a few lined up on all three sites.  So this journal is to Vader, a cat whom everyone loved.  I will feature any art I get of him (provided it gets posted on dA) here so check them out :)


2002-2009

A collection of photos and art: [link]

The only footage of him: [link]

A short discription of him:
He was arrogant and full of himself, he could never admit he liked us, but it showed. He hung out with me all the time, slept with me under my covers, read with me, surfed the net with me, etc. He looooved food and soft snuggly things, often making up lies about how hungry he was and stealing my pillows and blankets from me. He loved confined spaces and being up high. He was very large and I had to carry him around like you would a toddler and he'd wrap his arms around my shoulders and hold on as I carried him about. He was a talker, meowing all the time, and he purred like a motor boat. Whenever he was nearby he had to be touching me, so he was always snuggled up to me or he'd have his paws touching my arm.

If I could draw, I'd draw a picture for you. Losing a pet is horrible! :tighthug: I've had to put three dogs down over my life, and I don't really remember Bandit (it was before I was in preschool), but the loss of Max still hurts, though not as much, 13 years later, and we just put my dog Bubba down...it's one of the hardest things to go through. :tighthug:

We aren't really sure what was wrong with him, but it was most likely blood or bone cancer. By the end he was in a lot of pain and he didn't have much time left so we put him down so he wouldn't suffer any more.

It was nearly two years ago now, but it doesn't really seem that long. I'm finally ok with it now, but I still miss him a lot.

I'm MythicPhoenix on gaia as well :3
