Puffalump MorrowMarch 1990-February 2009
We got our tiny little kitten from Tony's secretary, Pat Schade,
who found her in the middle of the road and rescued her.

We had been thinking of getting a cat and Richard was
so excited when Dad brought home a kitten!

She went through quite a few names
until we told Richard he needed to pick ONE name.
He decided to call her Puffalump
after those very soft stuffed animals
because she was the softest thing Richard had ever touched!
Janet was a newborn baby when Puff arrived
And we have taken Puff everywhere!
She was a world traveler!
She flew through Amsterdam on her way to the Philippines.
She lived with us in Manila and in Singapore.
Puff didn't like company--she would hiss at visitors
when they tried to talk to her, or pet her,
but she was really very patient and tolerant with her family--especially
with each child when they were small
and learning how to be soft and gentle with animals.
Puff never scratched or bit the babies,
even when Amy would do her WWF smackdown body hugs!
Amy would grab Puff around the neck and then lay down on top of her
and give her a HUGE hug!
Puff would just lay there and flick her tail and wait.
Puff was a wonderful pet and
We all miss her very much.
