We sadly announce that dear old Mariposa is in cat heaven today. She is playing in the tall grass, chasing mice and sleeping in the sun beside a full bowl of tuna and a plate of cream.
As her feline leukemia symptoms increased, we had fewer and fewer options for her care, and today we made the decision to have her euthanised and out of distress.
She came to us last November and has been a gentle soul who we loved, spoiled and got lots of love back from her in return.
She settled in well, and we thought we had another furever home for her, but it did not work out, so she was back with us after just 2 weeks.
She loved to sleep on the patio in the sun, on the couch, right up against Daf all night, and was friendly to all our company during dinners and parties.
You were much loved, dear Mariposa, and we will miss you. Thanks to Dr. Guillermo for your kindness on this sad day.
