Description
My sweet little Trouble. June 2012 - March 2014This was one of the sweetest cats that I've ever had, he was born and raised on my farm along with his other siblings.
On a very hot and miserable day in July, the mother cat was moving the kittens to a place in my backyard where they wouldn't
be safe from the heat. So, I helped her out and brought all six kittens inside to keep them safe and cool. There were three boys
and three girls. Two months went by and the kittens were already walking about and exploring their environment.
I would lay on the floor watching the kittens play, and even some of them would crawl all over me. Then my heart melted for this little
guy, who would be causing trouble where ever he went. Hence the name Troublemaker, he was my favorite of the litter. I also love his
little sister too, although she doesn't look like him, she is all black with a white patch of fur on her chest and tummy. I named her Paydo.
As the kittens got older we gave four of them to good homes where they would be good mousers on farms, while Trouble and Paydo stayed
with my family, and became indoor cats. One day I decided to get Paydo spayed, but I could not afford to get Trouble neutered so I had no choice but to put Trouble outside. Over time, he adapted to the outdoor conditions, but in March of 2014 I could tell something was wrong with him.
Two days before he died I could tell something was very wrong, he looked like he was having problems breathing, I wanted to take him to the vet, but I couldn't afford to take him to vet. Then one day, as I was taking care of my outdoor chores. I heard the most god awful wheezing noise. I rushed to the back yard to find Trouble collapsed under the porch gasping for air. I was panicking, crawling under the crawl space to get to trouble, as I was crawling under to get to him, it was too late he died right in front of me. I grabbed a hold of him to get him out, got onto my knees and cried my heart out. I have never cried so hard in my life, loosing my beloved pet was so hard to bear.
I will say this, he was very well loved and part of the family, Trouble was the kind of cat that didn't have a mean bone in his body. He loved everyone.
I wanted to share his picture with everyone to show my unconditional love for Trouble and in memory of him. This picture was taken sometime in either spring or summer of 2013.

I'm sorry for your loss. But this is a lovely cat. I know how it is to loose a cat. Our first ever cat died a few years back after living with us for 14 years and our family cried, especially my father. It was hard to watch her die, so I know the feeling. I'm here for you.

That's a cute name for a kitty, I love black cats and tabby cats.
Trouble's sister Paydo still lives with me, she's a very sweet kitty
too. But not as sweet as Trouble.

Yeah. We originally had her sister before we got her, but she only stayed a week with us after Christmas and died of nemonia, so we got Stocking. Then Sassy, our dog but dad's little farm pal, came. Then Chubbers, my baby now turned fat raccoon/cat, came and finally our Calico, Penny, who is more of a mama's girl. Sassy passed away from Lymphoma shortly after we got Penny, so now we only have those two. I've been trying to convince dad to get another dog, but he says he's just too busy for one. I still keep asking him about it, so I think he'll crack someday.
