Ghost Story: A Strange Coincidence or Karma?
While my people slept last nite I had a strange missteerius urge to explore. Stranger than usual. Thare is a table, Mommy calls it the junk table, and the top lifts off and so you can put junk inside it. The lid was left open after my peeple startid making sleep noises so I went in thare to see whut I kood play with.
I kant explayn it but thare wuz voices tellin me to play thare.
Thare wuz a plastick bag and it smelled like a cat but I koodint see no cat. I wanted to play with this cat so bad I put bitey marks all over the bag. But still no cat. Then I took it in to Mommy but she wuz sleepin. So I left it on the bed.
When she woke up she fownd the bag. "Echo whut is this doing heer? Its all perferaytid" she asked. I kept biting the bag to tell her I reely wanted inside it.
"These are the last furs I brushed off Karma before we helped her across the Rainbow Bridge." She opened the bag and let me sniff. It wuz such an intreeging smell I licked the furs from the bag and got sum in my mouth.
"No, Echo don't do that" Mommy skoldid. Then she got a far away look in her eyes.
"Why did you bring this to me? This is very strange".
The pickture here is of Karma. It wuz takin in 1988. Karma wuz Mommys first kitty and she loved her like crazee. She new Karma long before she met Daddy. Karma lived to be a geezer. She wuz almost 20 yeers old when her kidnees got sick. Nikki cat tole me Mommy cride for days.
"So you see littel boy, you're gonna have a long life with us too. Probably an even better life than Karma cuz she tot me so much about kitties. Without you I dont know how I wooda survived without my Karma kitty. I havvint seen this bag of her furs for a wile. Why now?" We looked at each other kwietly.
Then she remembered. Tomorrow will be two yeers since Karma went to the Bridge.
A shivver went down both our baks. Wuz Karma heer in speerit to play with me and make me remind Mommy?
So I think today I'm gonna take a nap in the cat tree. Not the pagoda one from my Thursday 13. We have a seckund one. It reely smells like Karma cuz Mommy got it for her in 1991. One leg is bare from her skratchin it but otherwise its in good shape for an annteek.
But I'm a gonna keep one eye open for goast cats.







Oh Echo, that entree maked my Momma's eye leek!!

Wowie! I'll bet the spirit of Karma called out to you! I think she wanted to send a message to your mom that she is watching over her like a furry guardian angel.

Dear Mr. Echo,
This was an interesting event, indeed!
Karma must have been with you in spirit!

Oh what a sad story. Mummy said that's just what happened to Sheba, who was seventeen. They got me after praying for a replacement. They wanted one like Sheba for Livvie. She pines so bad. Mummy said I am exactly like Sheba. Livvie thinks so too :O)

Be extra nice to your Mom, anniversarys can be sad...

Brilliant, something on karma should always be a learning experience. As karma is something which comes from within indeed, a passion of sacrifice, a desire of life, should be karma.
I would like to thank your for sharing this event to all of us.
