Pumpkin, We'll Miss You

This is Pumpkin. He was Grandpa's cat that lived back in New Jersey. Mommy told me she gave Pumpkin his name. Her and Grandpa had a real hard time naming him, so hard that he went unnamed for the first week he lived with them. But then Mommy spied some pumpkin pudding and it looked the same color as Pumpkin.

I met him once and he was very nice to me. In fact, he was the nicest cat to everyone. He loved when people pet him and he loved to lay out in the sun. Here he is lying out on some papers on the kitchen table. He was obviously very special because Mommy would never let me or Daddy on the kitchen table.

Pumpkin was also Grandpa's best and loyal friend. He traveled with him and Grandma from New Jersey to Florida and back every year. He used to sit on Grandpa's desk and give him advice about stocks. But sadly, Pumpkin passed away on Saturday, October 6, 2007. We miss him already.
