I will always remember Baby waiting so patiently and politely with a single paw on my lap for a taste of my ice cream every time I had some.
Baby (her full name is Countess Nicole de Lancret) the daughter of a siamese mother and bobtail father. She was born with her mother’s beauty and her father’s bunny butt. I was there and held her the day she was born.
Baby saw me through many dark and desolate times in my life and without her love I do not know where I would be today.
My sweet Baby-girl. Daddy misses you so much. You saved me more times than I can count in more ways than I can number. It was truly an honor to receive your love for 16 years on this earth and I can never thank you enough for spending that time with me.
I hope, wherever you are, you are at peace and that I will see you again one day.
