There was a total of 9 creatures, and the rest were fish. But I miss my kitty the most. She was so loyal to me and I didn't even show her my appreciation for her. She had so much patients for me, I would be in the bathroom for 2 hours and she'd stare at me the hole time while I was doing my make up plucking my eyebrows or whstever. After awhile she came up with a habbit of bitting people, not hard but lightly so I would hit her cus It made me soo mad. But I've realised that it was cause I didn't pay any attention to her. She would always wake me up in the morning, she would be laying on my chest starring at my eyelids until I woke up. I miss that soo much. Well my whole life changed on December 13h. When I was in my room with my younger sister who was up on the bunk bed with the cat. My younger brother came in and said fire, so we all panicked and screamed and ran down the hall but by that time I couldn't breath as my cat passes me and ran into the farthest room away from the fire while I went out a different way out threw the window. That is the hardest part for me. I can still see her in my head running for safety, knowing that I had just enough time to grab her and get out. But I didn't I was only thinking of myself. And I hate myself soo much for that. When I put myself in her place running down the hall knowing I was right behind her then I'm not. But my family of 7 made it out, but barely in their sox, It was a trailer house so It went fast. There was 1 yorkie (DOG), 2 parakeets,1 turtle, 2 rabbits, 2 baby rats, my cat and a frog, and then a majority of fish. It's soo hard to lose everything you have ever owned or lived for, and out of baby pictures, and computers and tv's, clothes, and everything, I miss my animals the most, and aspecialy Kitty baby, I loved her soo much, I just never was around to show it when I could. It's hard waking up in the morning knowing that she wont be there because she got left behind in the horrible fire. I still havent been able to find her. but I want to, so I can give her a proper barial to show my respect for her, like we will Kiara (our dog). We found her in the corner of my parents room with her nose up against a corner trying to get air. It was a sad day, and a sad holiday (christmas) without our loved ones to be there with us. They are all in our hearts.
Kiara, Kitty baby, Happy, Mouse, Piggie, Babe, Sully, Kipper, Violet, and the fish. Never to be forgotten.
And I do recommend that you give all your animals attention and the love that they need, They will love you not matter what you do to them. They are always there for you when you need them. Because who knows, one day they are there and the next they are not. So please take advantage of them being there. I wish I did.
