In Memory of Buster Bo January 2002-November 2010


We Will Miss You Buster!

Buster was born in January of 2002, he was bought with love. He was so small but had very large paws, so big he would trip over them often. Buster loved to be cuddled and carried around like a baby when he was sleepy, but when he was awake he ran and played hard. As he grew up he had many corks. He would only drink water from the palm of my hand, his meow sounded like a small child, for as big as he was he wasn't very tough. I remember going to the Zoo and seeing a cat that looked very similar to him, it answered all my questions about why he was so large and corkey, he was a Wild Cat. I almost donated him to the Zoo a few times especially when he became my alarm clock at 6 AM even on the weekends. His 6 AM meows were for selfish purposes like he wanted can food on top of his dry food or a drink. Another funny thing about Buster was that he was a good hider, when I met Matt he called me at work one day telling me that Buster was missing I said look in the linen closest and their he was. One time when I was moving my mom and Taryn were helping me when they noticed Buster was missing, they thought he had went out side. They were so scared to call me, luckly they found him in a sleeping bag before they made the call. His favorite hiding place was under our bed up in the box springs, what a funny cat. The things I will miss most is the way he waited for me to come to sleep each night and would lay next to me and hold my hand. He didn't like to be in social settings very much or to have Hudson treat him like a toy but he was sweet and sensitive. Hudson would always name our family members and Daisy and Buster were always included. I know Hudson will miss him very much, and Matt too even though he wanted to take him to the mountains sometimes. Daisy will miss her best friend that she spent most of her time beating up and teasing, but I guess that's the way she showed her love.
