Cat: Chelsea – San Mateo, CA (03/2006 – 07/17/2009)
Chelsea (Himalayan/Siamese) was one of a kind. Named after a rare / unreleased Counting Crows song.
She was our baby, bottle fed for many weeks by me and my daughter. She was the best cuddler ever [when SHE chose to be].
Her life was short and her death tragic. Lost to a Coyote. I can’t think of a worse way to go for a cat.
She was an indoor cat but on very hot days loved to lounge in the sun.
I pray it was quick and blind-sided her. I pray I can get the vision, panic and fear she felt out of my heart.
I pray she is happy in cat-forever-land.
She is survived by her feline Brother, August, and memorialized by our newest feline addition, Coconut.

Oh, that’s so tragic. RIP Chelsea. You were a beautiful kitty and have crossed Rainbow Bridge to a cat fanciful world of treats, sun bathing, and purring for eternity.

Thanks, that is a great way to think she “lives” now.
