For Chessa

So many memorable moments start with sitting down on the couch and being begged for love by Chessa. The moment anyone, no matter who it may be, sat down or even stood in the same place for too long, you could count on Chessa being there. Her love for everyone wasn't fake, it was purely everything you could ask for in a cat. Standing anywhere in the house you knew she would find you and you'd feel that familiar and comforting brush on your leg; followed by a meow or two and a pawing if you ignored her. She loved everyone with her humungous heart and she is always going to be missed. I remember walking around the corner of the hallway one day and seeing her sneak a pass at a stray mouse toy; the look I got when I "intruded" on her play time was just something else. Her personality shone through her eyes and her purring was amazingly loud for such a small bundle of love. Her being there always made me feel even more welcomed and it was a comforting thing to see her walking toward me, knowing what was to come.
