I have my sweet girl back ❤️

TW: child loss

This is Mina and she is 15 years old. I got her when she was 2 months old and I was 19. I'm now 34 and I can't believe how much of a lifetime ago that was.

6 years ago, my son died in the delivery room and my entire world fell apart. I could not take care of myself, yet I somehow still had to take care of my other 2 children. My sweet Mina became something extra that I could not handle. I asked my ex MIL if she would take her because she has a farm and other cats.

So for the last 6 years she's been a farm cat and a pretty happy one at that. Despite knowing she was happy, I have felt guilty for years for giving her up. My ex MIL contacted me last week saying she was afraid that her new dog was going to hurt Mina because she was not being cautious at all around him and asked if I would be able to take her back. So now my son's 6th bday is next week and here I am with my kitty back and it stirs up so many emotions.

I just wanted to share how pretty and sweet she is ❤️ I'm so glad shes back with me.
