Sammy Brown
February 8th, 1988 - January 16th, 2007
The son of
Tanya (my cat) and Leo (Noreen Storch's cat)
Sammy was a
very sweet and loving cat. He loved any person and any
cat that came into the house. We miss him so much.
One picture
with his sister Lois at 4 weeks old. Tanya, after
delivering her two kittens, moved
 them
the next morning into a top dresser drawer in my bedroom and
put them with my silk scarves. She snuggled down by a gray
lamp my father gave me when I was born, and a childhood doll
that was in the drawer.
When the
kittens were born I had four cats. Puck, a beautiful
Himalayan, Tanya, Sammy & Lois. Tanya and Puck taught
the kittens not to scratch the furniture and how to be good
cats. Both Puck & Tanya took wonderful care of the
kittens - Puck became their father. When Lois was
seven she died and that was very, very sad. When Puck
died it was dreadful - Tanya & Sammy wouldn't eat and they
were very depressed. I waited a few months and got two
lilac point Siamese (Oscar & Luke). They arrived at 10
weeks old and although Tanya wasn't happy with them, Sammy
was overjoyed. Sammy taught the new kittens what not
to scratch and was always licking them. You always saw
the three together (Tanya didn't want to have anything to do
with the new boys!). When Tanya was dying the "boys"
stayed by her side and were very sweet to her.
Sammy's
death has been very hard on Oscar, Luke and myself.
Sweet and loving he always came running when you called his
name. Sammy was a talker and the house has been very,
very quiet. We miss him a great deal.
