Rocky left to cat heaven on Wednesday, August 30th. He had been with me for 12 years from the time he was a kitten. Although I knew it would be hard on me when he died, I am still surprised at not only the level of sadness I'm feeling, but also just how much I plain darn miss him.

He would always follow me around, scratching at the bathroom door to be let in so he could drink out of the faucet, climbing on my lap right on top of my newspaper, and meowing around my feet every time I opened a can of food. He loved getting into things that weren't for him, file drawers, empty cardboard boxes and even gardening baskets, tomatoes and all!!

He was a such a scaredy cat that I often called him brave when he was the slightest bit adventuresome. I am grateful that he passed on peacefully with no illness or injury, just doing what he did best, lounging around
on the couch.
