Arbby was a great cat

My great cat Arbby
One of my favorite cats ever was named Arbby.

Nine years ago my dad found this cute black and white kitten. My dad was bringing in groceries from the restaurant Arbbys when he spotted the little kitten being attacked by furious crows. He ran over and scared the crows away. He took a good long look at the small black and white kitten and named her Arbby. The reason we named her Arbby is because we found her in the Arbby’s parking spot.

When we dropped her home she was scared of my dog Bakoo. All her life she was scared of Bakoo. One time Bakoo walked up to Arbby and she started hissing but Bakoo kept getting closer. Suddenly Arbby took her little kitty claws and gave him a scratch on the nose. Bakoo went whimpering off.

After she became older, when we got home from school she would put her two sweet little paws on our shoulders and give us a kitty hug. I loved the feeling of her fuzzy fur on my face.

Seven years from when we found her my sisters and I came home from school. Arbby was no where to be found. We went racing to find her and couldn’t believe what we found. My dad was in the back yard digging a hole. He told us that Arbby had a good long life but she suddenly had a hard time breathing and died. We all felt very sad to hear that our favorite cat was dead.

Whenever I see a cat, I still think about my black and white furry friend.
