The Wittiest of Kitties

I was so very saddened to learn that wittykitty passed in late June.  Just days before this terrible news, I was wondering about her.  It had been weeks since she posted at WP or Twitter.

I will miss her writing, her art, and of course her wit.

She was a multi-talented woman who wrote from her heart, no matter what the subject.  She wrote seemingly unafraid of what others might think.  I envy that.  Too often, I censor myself, for fear of offending others.  I seldom post my deepest feelings, perhaps afraid to admit to them, even to myself.  Wittykitty wrote about it all — the good, the bad, the scary — and always with the ability to find humor and poke fun.

I can’t believe there will be no more stories about her mom, her art classes, her dating life, her mundane yet amusing daily adventures.  No more photos of her latest artwork. 

I had always imagined that someday we’d meet in person.  I’d go to New York, and we would meet up in the city for a day of museums and sight-seeing.  And much laughter.  But that can never happen now.

I read her online condolence book and was glad to learn that Sienna (Guardcat) is being cared for by an aunt.

Her light has been extinguished much too soon, and it’s just so damn unfair.  This little bloggy community won’t be the same without her.

Peace, Barb.
