This
is my adorable cat Trigger. I got her ten years ago from the Cat
Protection League as her previous owner had died. Trigger is an
exceptional cat, who would spend the whole day sitting on my shoulder if
she could. She won't get up until the alarm goes off in the morning
regardless of the time and she won't go to bed until I do each night.
She sleeps with her head on the pillow, her body under the duvet and
snuggled up next to me. Whenever she sits or sleeps she is happiest
if her chin is resting on something. Everyone who meets her falls in
love with her, she has such a sweet nature and trots about the house
keeping her eye on things.
Until recently you would think she was about five years old but in
the last few months Trigs hasn't been in the best of health. She has a
heart murmur, is diabetic, her kidneys are failing and now she
is getting more wobbly by the day. I inject her with insulin every twelve
hours which she has never complained about and she is on medication for
her kidneys but she is slowing down now. This picture was taken not
long after one of her blood tests which is why she has the area under
her chin shaved.
I know I won't have Trigger forever but she has brought so much
happiness into my life and home over the last ten years and now every
day left is a gift. She is such a special cat and I love her.
