Teeny Is Irreplaceable

FROM Britt Lind
Facebook posting, April 4, 2022

No one was as close to me or as loving and sweet as Teeny.

I can finally share my feelings about the death of my best friend Teeny who died last month. It has been too painful for me to admit he is gone.

He was my constant companion, my inspiration, and all around good guy who loved his brother and mother.

He was the one who brought them to my porch in the rain and snow of northern Washington. He was very small but the leader of his tiny band of ferals. He made it clear he wanted to come inside, and the other two followed his lead.

He loved people and liked to talk. He would wake me up every morning by gently tapping his paw on my face, then tell me it was time to get up.

His passing devastated me. No one was as close to me or as loving and sweet as Teeny. I know I will see him again in heaven where all my angels are gathered but I wanted to spend more time with him on earth. He is irreplaceable.
