Tuxie Tuesday: Remembering Suzy

Yesterday we posted a  video of cute black and white kittens that Mum found on YouTube. Mum really wanted to post a video of her first soulmate cat, Suzy, who was a black and white cat. But unfortunately she doesn't have one. This is because back in the 80s all she had was a camera to take photos, not one to record videos.

The reason Mum wanted a video of Suzy was because the month of June is Suzy's month. We will be devoting most of our posts to her.

Why is it Suzy's month?

Well, she wasn't born in June. She was actually born in May but her Gotcha Day was June 13th 1985. Sadly, the day she left Mum for the Rainbow Bridge was also in June. But that was June 29th 1998.

Some of you may not know this, but Suzy is the heroine in Mum's fantasy book The Snowflake Pendant In fact, Mum was going to call it Suzy and the Snowflake Pendant but thought that title might be a bit too long.

Mum loved Suzy a lot and Suzy loved her back. They had a very strong bond. Mum calls her her other soulmate cat.

Suzy was the family cat and actually chosen by Mum's younger brother. He wanted a kitten after the family cat Cas went missing (another Tuxedo!) Mum wanted to wait a bit longer to get another cat. But when she saw Suzy's cute little face she fell in love with her instantly.

Suzy was a pretty kitty and very affectionate. Mum still misses her a lot and thinks about her every day.
