Luna
Luna the Mooncat, the Followcat, the sweet girl passed away on Tuesday morning. This kitty, like all, was a whole individual with so much love and magic and humor. Sharp and quick, cuddly and sweet, her first four months on the street, and then the next four months being socialized by a relentless human. Living with and losing her cat family, our family, over many years. Sixteen years later, now family to Nate too, the princess of her apartment and the face of The Repressions. Sixteen years of love. The last few years of working from home a bittersweet gift, more time together. So bonded. Every decision made with consideration to her needs, yet always feeling it may not be enough. What could ever be enough for someone so wonderful?
Luna had a bit more of a public life than our other kitties, so it is necessary to share this here. We are grieving. We will be back to work performing starting today, but please understand that we will need a short break from performing “Followcat.” Right now it is too close, but overall we are so glad that we have that song, and will play it again and often, a tribute to this beautiful amazing girl who made our lives better every second for sixteen years. Life has a lot of loss and the loss hits hard when there is a lot of love. We miss Luna so much, but even through the fog of pain we know we are lucky for having known her, we are lucky for every moment with her.
