R.I.P. Miffi

Miffi had trouble breathing, since last night. We took her to our vets this morning, and they found that her lungs were full of fluid, and there was a mass visible on one side. She was struggling to draw breath.
Her chances were very bleak, and we had to make the difficult decision to let her go.
Miffi passed away around 10:30am, today, July 8, 2017.

Miffi (originally named Mithril - after the special silver mined by dwarves in J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit") was the second kitten adopted by my self and my husband, in April 1999.

She was such a little character, jumping everywhere, and attacking my feet on the bed. She let Frodo know "Who's boss!" pretty much immediately, once she got big enough. They were best buds for a long time (until Mauricee-poo came along and threw everything out of whack in the cat dynamics).

She was my husband's "Little Nurse", on bad days, when he had a migraine, curling up on his chest, and purring his pain away.

She was also my baby - snuggling on my chest, every chance she got, and demanding shares of all the tasty foods I've had - especially, chicken. We always joked about buying her one whole roast chicken, and just letting her go at it, speculating that she would go in at one end and then burst out through its chest, like a Xenomorph ("Aliens").

Our house is now even emptier, as we are down to two kitties, Frodo, and Kinu.
