Allegra (1989-2007)

"The humble little friend is gone where go the beasts that perish." -- Mark Twain Allegra ("Great Girtha") died peacefully at home yesterday morning (July 1, 2007), while being stroked by Meowmie, after several weeks of declining health. She was eighteen years and three months old, and is already missed. A lot. She is buried in her own yard, along with her beloved adopted Beltie. Allegra was born around March 26, 1989, in Freedom Plains, NY, and adopted on May 14th of that year. She was best known for her great girth, her creativity, her ear tufts, her lovely loud deep purr, and her ability to put up with "Lovable Louise". She was the 1998 Oofwate category champeen in kitty soomo, and was vice-president, and later president, of the Tufted Ears Club. A more detailed resume of her accomplishments will be given in her tribute at this year's Jellicle Ball. I'd like to thank all the members of the Great Girtha Fan Club for their unswerving support through the years: pippy (bery furst memfur) Talisker Pippin (#2 fan) Mikko Mrs. Wiggles (RB), Pouncer (RB), Radar, and Angel, Heidi, and Weegee Omar (RB), Norville, Mietze, Neko, and Azad Shug and Shim and associate members Lynda and Gail Pooh and Tigger Kitty Schottland, Capt.

Adam,
I just signed on after being away for months and saw this. I am so sorry for your loss. May the very large Allegra size hole in your heart fill with wonderful, loving memories of her. She will live on in all our memories. Fran Puddi Cat settles into the meatloaf position of respect and starts purring her heart out for Uncle Adam and for all those who loved and respected Allegra. -- Remove "spam" from addy to reply |
