Xavier The privilege of knowing a cat. 3, October 1996 Dedicated to my first beloved cat companion for he was called into the Summerland to the temple of Bastet on October 2, 1996. I will miss you my dear little witch kitty. My good little man, My sweet honey boy, You have been a joy and a truly good friend. You have done your job well, keeping me safe, loved, and comforted. I thank you my friend for the lifetime on Earth that you gave to me. I hope in return that you are pleased with me. I will keep you always close to my heart and thoughts. Though I cannot yet believe you are gone. You showed me unconditional love. I will take what you have taught me and try to be for the world as you have been for me. Be happy and safe now, youthful and free to pursue your hearts desires. The pain I feel in your loss is worth knowing that you are no longer hurting. So be on your way, I release you my Xavier, with the names of love and comfort you have been to so many of my own: Xavier, Xavy, Honey-boy, Burbank, My Little Bagierha. You are my friend, my familiar, Xavier. Forever you friend and devoted companion, Samantha. (With a purr and an I miss you big brother, from little Kisa)
