Goodbye Whitey


Sad news...but a peep of Mr. Smitty passed away this week: Miss Whitey.
Whitey was a wonderful smitty!!! Found on the side of the road in January of '95, Whitey lived to be 15.
Now she gets to be reunited with her sisters Red Girl and Cocaty. We love you and we'll miss you!!!
Here's how it transpired:
"Whitey passed away early this morning. I had brought her into the house yesterday. We layed on the couch together and watched tv last night. She slept on the couch last night and the kids and I found her this morning.

It was sad, but this last 2 weeks has been really rough. I've been telling Whitey for the last week that if she's tired, it's ok for her to go and be with Red Girl and Cocaty. That' she's been a good girl and that Luckitty will be ok.

I have especially been preparing myself for this after I called and made the vet appt. I'm actually so relieved and happy for her to finally be rid of her tired, old body and to be young and healthy again and playing with her sisters.

We buried her this morning, after the kids left, under the mango tree on the other side of the back fence. Right next to Red Girl! :) It was a beautiful, sunny morning today... just the kind of day that she liked to lay out on the porch and soak in the sunshine."
Goodbye Whitey!
