Meet Ramie! He was a 13 month old Siamese cat who was submitted by his loving mommy Cindie, from Canada. Sadly Ramie passed away from Fip( Feline infectious peritonitis) on the day we received this e-mail. He was the light of Cindie's life and as you can imagine, she misses him dearly. All of us here wish to let Cindie, in her own words, tell us all about her beloved Ramie. We have attached her touching e-mail below. Our hearts go out to you Cindie and we will always be here for you, if you ever need a friend or a shoulder to lean on.
Dear MyCutePetPics,
This is a pic of my beloved boy Ramie (taken in September), who
heartbreakingly passed away from FIP today. He was only one year and one month
old, and the light of my life.
He was a beautiful but atypical Siamese cross with odd lynxpoint markings,
startlingly blue eyes, and a sweet and sunny disposition.
None of our six cats were allowed outside, but when Ramie was diagnosed
with FIP at the beginning of September, we let him outside under strict
supervision, because it was what he longed for so much. (He even figured out how
to open a particular type of door handle in his quest to Go Outside!) He was
the happiest camper imaginable when his wishes were granted, going for long,
chatty walks with us on the trails in the woods on our property, exploring
everything, going up the long, long driveway to my brother's cabin to visit his
'Uncle Todd', catching a shrew, unsuccessfully stalking the squirrels and birds,
and basking in the glorious September sunshine. One of the trails he loved
so much has been named after him, and he his now buried where it begins.
Ramie came to us as a sickly but plucky 5 week old kitten from the Duncan
SPCA. He blossomed and blessed our lives here in Errington, BC Canada on
Vancouver Island for just a year and three days. We'd been hoping for at least
20 years, and we are devastated without him. We'd never even heard of feline
infectious peritonitis before. Our beloved boy purred right until the end.
Please tell me his passing away does not exclude him from your contest. I
already know he is/was the cutest cat ever, but others perhaps need to see how
truly amazing he really was....
Thank you,
