How Cinnamon picked me

by C. Kennie
(Ontario, Canada)

I went to a very excellent Burmese cat breeder in Toronto and I was given 6 kittens to choose from. As soon as I picked up wee Cinnamon she cuddled in and purring. The other kittens had no chance. Wee Cinnamon had me heart firmly in her paws and wouldn't ever let it go.

Cin was a very intelligent and extremely affectionate cat. She was my shadow and we spent ages playing games together. She slept beside my head at night and I fell asleep to her quiet soft purr.

She was asleep on the bed and her heart just stopped. She felt no pain. She is now buried at my sister's farm and I now have two other cats now...but Cinnamon still has my heart and quietly waits for me across the Rainbow Bridge.
