I loved her from the time she came to me a tiny baby I bottle fed until she died of cancer at 12yrs old. When we hospiced her we fed her steak, ice cream, chocolate, people food, and gave her anything she wanted. She died peacefully in the living room floor surrounded by family. I miss her. I saved her and then she saved me many times. Once when the heater caught fire, once when I fell asleep in my moms hottub,this happened twice I never got in there without my guard dog. Once again she caught a rattlesnake coming into the porch where we were sitting. Again whenever she would hear the sound of the vehicle vearing off the road,as I fell asleep at the wheel, this happened more than once, and I could keep going, when I had kids they were hers too and she saved them from a mean dog that came over our fence after our cat and turned on the kids and she had him so fast pinned to the ground, this was only 3mos before she died. She was an angel in fur. Missy’s picture is below posted a year ago.
