The little cat nobody wanted brought joy to so many

The Simon family has suffered another loss: Laurence's beloved little Piper died suddenly early this morning.

She was a hoot of a kitty, chasing her tail, making funny faces, gnawing on her blankie, endlessly grooming herself (man, that cat was CLEAN!), and those of us who watched Laurence's catcams enjoyed it all:

It was only yesterday she was climbing up my pants leg, up my shirt, sitting on my shoulder, and shrieking for more from the bottle.

Ten years later, my little kittybaby is gone.

When I had finally gotten a new job, I wanted to keep tabs on the cats, so I went a little overboard with catcams. One here... one there... a "skycam" for watching Piper as she slept.

Many other people started watching her.

For such a little cat that nobody had wanted, she brought joy to many.

Yes, she did. Farewell little Piper, and peace be with Laurence and Gina.
