Welcome to Gingersnap's Rainbow Residency

Memories of Gingersnap

Ginger, my sweet little sparkle, I still ache with missing you. I think of you every day. You are my little furry soulmate. You went through so much to come to us for such a short time. Were you an angel sent briefly just to remind me how much I could love? I will never forget loving you from the moment I first heard about you and being grateful that we could give you the special home you needed. When you crawled into my sleeve for your first trip to our home, you melted my heart and I knew you were meant for me. You were so patient waiting for your freedom in our home and so loving to all of us while you waited that you seemed older and wiser than your years. But when you cleared, you made up for lost time and embraced your new freedom and life with such joy you made my heart soar every day. I can still see you hiding in the snap peas ready to pounce on me in the garden. You were so proud when you captured moths, you would come prancing into the house with the moth in your mouth, your head held high, brown dust all over your muzzle. You made us laugh. I miss our nightly routine when I would follow you from shed roof to shed roof in the backyard where you stayed just out of my reach until you were ready to be helped down to come inside. You loved your little wax paper balls so much, I found them everywhere, inside and out, in the months after your passing. You were the only cat grumpy old Osho ever got along with. He would run through the house, jump up on the bed, and peer over his shoulder waiting for you and your bell to follow him. He was never happier than the short time he had you for a playmate. He missed you so much but he has joined you now along with Bubba and Madeline and Slim and Baby. And now Cleo has joined you this year as well. Gingersnap, your death left such a huge hole in my heart that all the cats in the world couldn't fill it but we keep trying. It's because of you that we've fostered and adopted so many of your wonderful brothers and sisters. What a joyous reunion we'll all have when we meet again. In the meantime, I love and miss you more than words can express.
