My dearest Nicky, You were my best friend from the very beginning. I remember so clearly the warm summer nights when the sun wouldnt set until the late evening. I would carry you around in my basket and we would play together for hours. You were a beautiful cat with a kind hearted spirit. From your beautiful coat to your orange button nose, you were adorable. As time passed, you grew up and we made the move to Australia, it wasnt more than three years after that, that you became ill with age. at the beginning of your 21st year you became very ill. And its because of that I carry alot of guilt. We tried to pretend that everything was okay, and that you would be alright, but I know you were suffering and we shouldnt have let that happen. for the past 8 years I've thought about how things should have been done, and sometimes I cry and long to have the chance again to make things right. I love you and I Know you are always with me, and I hope that you can forgive my selfish human actions. When we get that chance to meet again, promise me we will play together for the rest of time.
