This sweet perfect boy came into my life right when I needed him most, after a serious car accident. He was with me through all of graduate school, through my job search, through the tenure process, and into the pandemic. He was always there for me and could tell when I needed an extra purr or snuggle. He always wanted to be near me, even when we were each doing our own thing. He was such a constant, loving, understanding companion, whose mere existence kept me going in times when I might have otherwise called it quits. I feel like part of my soul is gone. I will never be the same without him, but I also would be a very different person if he had never been here.
I love you so much, my big sweet baby. I will love you forever. Thank you for being my cat.
