It's weird, it's been just over a week since we lost Sammy, mine and Adam's first-ever fur baby together, - our baby before we had babies, and yet despite how much I miss her. I still feel her spirit with us. I'm not a spiritual person, nor am I not, not-spiritual, but I do feel she is with us still. Maybe no longer in the physical version, but perhaps as some form of energy. 


I know that'll sound strange to most, but I've not stopped finding white feathers since we lost her. I see them absolutely everywhere. I even had one fall out of my slipper when I took it off the other day. There's been no obvious reason for this sudden influx of white feathers and they started the day after I asked for a sign that she was okay whilst I was crying on my bed just after we lost her. I guess asking for a sign makes me spiritual, but after the spiritual reading with my deceased father earlier this year, I guess I'm just a lot more open-minded about this sort of thing. And either way, it brings me comfort in an otherwise heartbreaking time. 

It's hard to sum up what Sammy meant to us. We love all of our cats a huge amount, but she was incredibly special. She’d been through it all with us - first home, getting engaged, getting married, becoming parents, moving to two more homes. She slept with us every single night, mostly on top of me or curled up beside me. She would snuggle in between Adam and I every night when we watched tv in bed. She’d even follow me to the toilet if I got up. You’d never not find her on our bed, (which is why she’s in the back of so many of my YouTube videos), she felt happy and safe there and had no interest in the outside world. She was an anxious cat but she adored us and we adored her.
