Sweet Ivy helps us through our grief

Baby Ivy
Ivy is now about 4 years old. My daughter and I rescued her through a Siamese Group from an over crowded City Animal Shelter.
Ivy loves to ride on my husband's shoulders while he walks around the backyard and the pool. She is very affectionate.
Lovely sweet Ivy, our Japanese Bobtail.
Our daughter passed away unexpectedly one year after saving Ivy. She taught Ivy how to kiss.
When she is in the mood, she will kiss you over and over. I was drawn to Ivy at the shelter. I wonder if somehow I knew she would help us through our immense grief.
She sits in a chair by the window as we pull up to the house. Always ready to get kisses and hugs.
She is also the smartest cat we have ever owned. Ivy is a Japanese Bobtail, and her short little tail is very cute.
The famous porcelain Japanese cat that sits on her hind legs and raises her paw is a Bobtail. She is my best friend.
