Humphrey’s Postumous Mews

Mom adopted me in March of 2013, three weeks before my fourth birthday. Since I was a kitten I lived at 9th Life Hawaii, the non-profit No Kill Cat Rescue & Sanctuary. Other people had wanted to take me home, but I recognized Mom as a courageous lady and someone I wanted to protect. We lived alone together in Pukalani on Maui for 8 1/2 years until she had to move into the care facility. Then I moved into her mom's condo in Honolulu. I'd rather be outside, but Mom told me this would happen, and there are lots of big windows where I am, so that's okay. 

I visited Mom two or three times a week and we always wanted to live together again, but that did not happen. After I turned 15 1/2, I developed kidney disease and then got a fever and infection and never recovered. After I stopped eating, she had a vet from Arms of Aloha come and give me my final shot. I died very peacefully laying on mom and although she cannot pet me, I am with her always.
