My 1st cat, Konan (named after Konan the Barbarian, don't ask me why, I don't know!), died last year on July 26. He was the best cat anyone could ever have. He was already around 5 years old when I came to America (yes, I'm from Europe!). He came to greet me, while the only other cat, Kramer (named after Kramer on Sienfield, he must have been crazy when he was a kitten), ran away. I got very attached to him, and since then, my favorite animal has been a cat. When he died, it was almost as if I had lost a part of me. And it turns out, I really did. 3 years before he died, we moved to another (bigger) house and brought home another cat (from the Humane Society of Utah, see my article about that in Rules/ Announcements/ Feedback), Gia (since then, we renamed her Nika). At 1st, he was really angry, but then he got over it. Then, one night (July 26, 2007), he started to feel sick. My parents took him to the vet (sadly I couldn't go with them because I was in the shower), and as it turns out, on the drive there, his mouth started to bubble up. When my parents got to the vet, they found out Konan had cancer. They did all they could to save him, but that wasn't enough. He had a heart attack in his last minutes of life. So they finally put him 'down.'  What used to be a healthy, 20 pound cat, was now a sick, 7 pound cat. Well, the 2 cats had trouble with the fact that Konan would never come home, they looked for him all over the house, but (of course), never found him. A few months later, on January 21, 2008, we adopted a kitten. It was the exact same breed as Konan was (Seal Point Ragdoll), and we called him Murphy. Now that we have him, my 'Konan piece' has 1/3 filled up, but it will never fill up the other 2/3. Murphy is now still living with us, he is now 9 months old, while Nika is 7 years old, and Kramer is 8 years old. Konan the (Non) Barbarian is no more. But he will never be forgotten. EVER!!! He was a special cat, and he lives in the memories of my mom's, dad's, my grandma's (2) and grandpa's (1). He will ALWAYS (!!!!) be remembered. We love(d) him, and he loves us. The reason why I say loveS, is because he is watching over us right now. He will always watch over us. ALWAYS. Cause that's the kind of cat that he is and always will be. We love you Konan!   This is what Konan look(ed) like:

| He was very pretty. But I think Murphy must feel a little alone with all the older people arround. Surely he must be a rascal. They allways remain with us.
