Goodbye Nöpö

This travel bug would like to see the world but especially it would like being photographed with your (geo)pet or pets. :)

Travel bugi haluaa nähdä maailmaa, mutta haluaisi erityisesti olla valokuvassa (geo)lemmikkisi tai -lemmikkiesi kanssa. :)

Nöpö was very special and clever cat who came to my life around 2005 (or something like that) when I had watched from my local animal shelter's website that they had this cat who was on struvite prevention diet. My first contact with Nöpö at the animal shelter was when she bite my fingers - I guess that tells something of her... I lived at the time with Vincent (see my other trackable, Vincent's memory) who was on struvite diet too. Well, Nöpö and Vince never got along too well and when Nöpö was left as the only cat in 2010 she started to turn from my finger-biting little devil into this more peaceful old lady she was during her last years.

She liked to sleep near your head, the nearer the better. It was not once or twice I woke up on the morning to realise she had completely "stolen" my pillow and was sleeping on it. She also was very fond of running water and sometimes she came running to toilet and jumped right into the sink when she heard sink's faucet turned on. Yes, she also drank from the faucet. I even taught her to drink from rodents drinking bottle which I did not believe her to do but she did.

Eventually, being an elder cat already, her bloodtests at vet showed she had some diseases which, with her ongoing need for struvite diet, simply were not treatable as it's not quite possible to feed three different diets to one cat at the same time...

In loving memory of Nöpö whom I had to let go on 11th March 2014.
