our cat died yesterday afternoon (121906). we don’t know what’s the reason but it just crept under my parent’s bed late in the morning. we found out it’s dead because we haven’t found it playing by my brother’s bed for the whole morning, which is really unusual.
Minggay (our cat’s name) had its regular bath yesterday. my mom and i did it. then, we let it dry “under the sun” for several minutes. thinking that it’s doing great in drying itself, we let it by itself since we still have loads of things to do.
then, Minggay collapsed.
my brother shouted for my mom and brought minggay on his bed. (hey!! my brother really! literally shouted because Minggay collapsed!) he immediately applied efficasent all over Minggay. (the strong kind of efficasent.) Minggay seemed to scrunch up (tama ba ako gigamit nga term?). i don’t know what’s inside Minggay’s head (don’t u think this is a good story idea? a tribute to minggay???hmm…) after having been “haplased” all over its body by an efficasent. my brother fed it with milk, then.
Minggay looked revived after that. wrapped in clean rags, it breathed slowly. unhurriedly.
later, Minggay jumped from my brother’s bed and dragged itself towards my mom’s under side of their bed.
5:00 pm- my mom asked where Minggay was. and we searched under my parents bed since that was where we last saw Minggay went.
Minggay died.
My brother buried it.
i really didn’t know what to feel. but i already missed Minggay now. it usually slept in our house.
but not anymore.
