On Monday our beloved pet, Muffin, passed away. She’s been a part of the family for almost 15 years.

DD-Jessica was seven when she got Muffin.

Muffin was the haughty queen of the household and the best cat we’ve ever had. She was never any trouble and always very neat–except for the two litters of kittens she delivered under DD-Jessica’s bed instead of in the nice boxes we’d prepared for her. We will miss her.

Even Ludo seemed a little sad that day.
