EASTER is all about REBIRTH and RISING UP beyond challenges! EASTER and SPRING are all about NEW GROWTH!
At 12:00 midnight on April 4, 2015 I heard a WELCOMING, FAMILIAR MEOWWWW MEOWWW yelling at me to WAKE UP! At 12:01 AM, EASTER SUNDAY, April 5, 2015; my GRIEVING cat, Fonzie had decided to RISE UP and be REBORN!
WHAT A GIFT for EASTER!
Both FONZIE and I had been grieving the loss of BUDDY, his Egyptian Mau, Ginger Tabby adopted cat older brother. Buddy had passed away at 5:30am on March 15, 2015. Even though I allowed Fonzie to see Buddy in his favorite sleeping box before taking him out to bury him; Fonzie had been crying for his friend for over a week. An attempt to bring in a replacement cat, as his new friend, was unsuccessful. Fonzie retreated, being a feral, fearful cat; and the new cat decided to soak my bed by marking it. I decided it was best to allow Fonzie to ‘HAVE HIS OWN HOME’. It had taken Fonzie 8 YEARS to warm-up to ME! To allow me to run my hand across his back. For him to not run out of the room when he saw me standing.
Fonzie had grown into a trusting cat, ASKING to be pet, and ASKING to be fed. It was a JOY to see. With BUDDY’s passing; Fonzie moved back into a place of NOT TRUSTING.
Well! THE GIFT OF THE EASTER FONZIE occurred at 12:01 am April 5, 2015 when Fonzie AWAKENED ME! He ASKED to be FED. He even PRANCED BACK AND FORTH to indicate he WANTED to be PET! Not only THAT, he PURRRRED as he allowed himself to be pet gently around the head and neck. He asked for more and more.
WHAT A JOY to see this sweet soul move through his grieving and ARISE OUT OF IT to a place of TRIUMPH over the tragedy in his life.
Fonzie was born under Oyster Mill Playhouse and adopted by me in 2005. He was brought into my home to help my cat BUDDY, deal with the grieving of his fellow PAWS adoption cat, Elsa. It worked out beautifully. Buddy licked and comforted Fonzie, they became sleeping buddies and play pals. The loss of FONZIE’s friend was a traumatic shock for the cat.
HAPPY EASTER REBIRTH FONZIE! WELCOME BACK! THANK YOU, FOR THE COMPLIMENT! Your PURR response was a PURRRFECT EASTER GIFT!
