As if my heart isn't shattered enough for being there with my mom yesterday to give Jeffery his angel wings, This morning it was suddenly my Turn 
to be Raven's voice with peace and dignity (just recently celebrated her 20th birthday in January)
This morning started like any other day with Raven and still grieving for Jeffery.
Raven ate all her food, went for her walk on her harness n lead and we came back on the pool lanai. She meowed more than her usual chatting , today a different voice.
She walked several times in and out of the litter box , no output.... my heart sunk. I knew... I called my vet asap. Raven then came out of the litter box and there was blood and she laid down and I saw more blood and she began open mouth breathing. My heart sunk deep and deeper as I rushed her to the vet.
My long time vet met me and she told me I was not doing the wrong thing. suspect ruptured kidney , etc.
Raven passed in my arms surrounded by all my love with her paw in my hands with her fav yeowzz banana and fav treats.
Raven was the best cat. I was her person.
18 yrs ago she jumped out of a furniture delivery truck across the street and immediately started following me and my 2 rotties Max and Duke walking and talking on the sidewalk. she followed us all the way around the block.
I contacted the furniture company about their last stop. I called and the nasty lady answered I am not coming to Edgewater, keep that damn cat. I asked about her , she told me she was 2 and spayed and hung up the phone, never told me this sweet cat's name,
So , on that very day, I petted her and named her Raven and told her she is here to stay in my heart and home.
she always was more like a dog than a cat, She has been my rock on life's journey in the past 20 yrs.
I never saw it coming this morning, she had her breakfast, followed along the pool cage as I took Gunnar and Tillie out. Then as always she talked and waited for her turn to go for a walk, patiently waiting for me to put on her voyager harness and Gunnars leather puppy leash.
we had a walk, she always walked at the heal position and I would tell her to "roll" and she did for petting and loving rubbing on my hand.
everything was fine, until it wasn't.
Fly free sweet Raven with all your sweet beloved friends from home here and the lair family angels
"Until Then".... I was blessed you chose me to be your forever mum, your person.
