Cheeba was my favorite, not only because he was strong, beautiful and sleek, but because he had such personality. He was loud and outspoken, pushy, picky, needy, clever, and one hell of an escape artist. He loved to be outside but he suffered with allergies so we took great pains to keep him inside. He also had a great sense of humor. He loved everyone who came into our home, but after making a new friend, he'd always come right back to let me know I had the best lap of all. He was spoiled and loved, cuddled and babied. Sadly, he died Monday evening of lymphoma. We're all very heart broken. Out of habit, I still rush at the front door, worried he'll dart out. And if I see a shadow or a shoe on the floor, for a moment my mind is tricked into thinking it's him laying there. He's terribly terribly missed. That's why this week, the Five for Fri. is in memory of our dear Cheebita Weebita aka Cheeba Kittycaticus aka Brat Cat, aka Bobo.





Goodbye old friend.
