A tribute: Her Royal Highness Cleopatra Silvercat Mahoney
That was an ellagant tribute to a most ellagant ladycat.
Lucy Amelia T Cat wrote: Since we are all gathered here to remember those who have gone to the Rainbow Bridge without us, I would like to offer a tribute to my departed sisfur, Cleopatra Silvercat. When I was just a kitten Meowmie and Paw adopted me from a rescue organization in southern Catifurnia. When they brought me home I learned that I would be sharing a house with two humans and two other cats. Both of the other cats were girls like me (Cleopatra and DD). They were both adult cats and weren't eager to adjust to having a kitten in their lives, but they were both good sports. They both offered me advice on things I needed to learn, since I had to grow up without a momcat. Cleo showed me how important it is to be willing to negotiate and compromise. She also showed me the importance of keeping up on current events, and using my mind to achieve everything I was capable of. It was her counsel that lead me to develop my scientific and engineering skills, and to become the inventor I am now. DD developed CRF, way too soon. She declined for a few months despite all Meowmie and Paw did for her. When DD left for the Rainbow Bridge I was sad and depressed, but Cleo reminded me that us kitties have a responsibility to cheer up our humans. That helped me get my priorities straight. Soon other kitties joined our family. First tiny Tabitha joined us, then Sammy, then Harri and Ranger. As I enjoyed our family times I came to realize that Cleo was disappearing for days at a time, never telling us where she was going. But reading the kitty news I soon figured out that she was 'porting to places all over the world, serving as negotiator and statescat in areas requiring mediation. When parts of the world were experiencing conflict between dogs and cats, or between cats and other animals, or even between different clans of cats, if the parties in the conflict were unable to settle things themselves, they would call in Cleo. We all became accustomed to living in the same house as world-known royalty. We all came to see how she justified holding the title "Her Royal Highness" and "Empress of All She Surveys". We were also impressed by her eagerness to participate in activities of the Community, and how she never stood on formality. Cleopatra Silvercat was an inspiration to us all, and a dear friend to us all. She was very greatly loved by our humans, and by the feline members of her family. Cleopatra, you were loved and are still. Be happy, my sisfur. Amelia for her clowder |
