Ewok

I met Ewok in 2003. She could be found sunning herself by the creekbed. I thought she was a feral cat but she belonged to the next door neighbors. They found her as a teenie kitten hanging out around their yard and decided to keep her. The neighbors had to move and they couldn't take Ewok with them so they left her behind. I found her a few weeks after they left under leaves in our backyard dehydrated and starving on Christmas Eve. I couldn't let her die there, perhaps she was trying to. I often wondered if I did the right thing by nursing her back to health. After a month in our care she was back to the same ole Ewok I had always known. She even had a suitor. Sal Mineo is what I named the jet black tom cat that sings and sings all night and visits Ewok. He keeps her company at night and in the afternoons. I have not seen him and I don't think I will anymore now that Ewok is gone. I will miss them both.

Ewok:Happy to have met you, honored you trusted us and loved you so very much. We'll miss you, Kittykittty.
