I got oscar in October of 99 from my local animal shelter. He was a ball of fur and was a baby. He jumped on me when I opened the cage he was in and my daughter was five months when I got him. He played with my daughter and started following her every where she went when she started to walk. He would sleep at the end of the crib with her and she took a bath he would sit on the end of the tub like he was watching over her. Wherever Taylor my daughter would go he would. If she went outside to play he would sit right besid eher in the sand or grass and watch her when she came in he followed. He was an insid eoutside cat. His favorite spot was on the roof to where hecould watch the traffic go by. One day he went missing and come to find out the neighbors dog got out and chased him and killed him. I will never forgive myself for letting him out that day I fill like it was my fault I will miss him dearly and i still hold him close to my heart.
