Cat named Dog goes to heaven

Very sad day for Daughter #1, her 21 year old cat she named Dog, went to heaven last night.

Daughter #1 got a kitten when she was 14 years old, she named her Dog.  She was a little thing, a mixed bread of calico and who knows what else.  Cute little thing and lo and behold a couple years later Dog had kittens on the 4th of July.  Of course, Daughter #1 decided her daddy and two younger sisters needed a new kitten so she called us and describes all the kittens to us, we chose one sight unseen!!  We named her Savannah, she was white with black feet, ears and tail and the most beautiful blue eyes you ever saw!!  Somewhere in the mix there was a Siamese in the blood line, because Savannah was Siamese. 

Little did we know at the time these cats would have such long live spans.  Savannah lived for 18 years, she went to kitty heaven in 2010 just before Thanksgiving.  Now her mama, Dog has gone to heaven she was 21 years old.

Both went to heaven by way of the vet's hand.  Our vet told us the only way a cat can live that long is with lots of love and good care.  We were all gathered around Savannah when she passed, it was peaceful and I truly think she was ready, she was tired. :-(
