Piton
Location: Johnstown, Colorado, USA
Piton and her litter mate, Pixel, were the featured kittens on 9 December 2008. Today, 27 Feb, I had to have Piton euthanized due to multiple organ failure. This picture was taken when she was about six weeks old. She loved to burrow into my husband’s wheelchair back pack and take a nap. I caught her peeking out on one of those occasions. My husband labeled this picture HitchHiker Piton. She would have been 16 on April Fools Day.

What a beautiful kitty ~
How lucky we are to have them and then we even get pawprints all over our hearts for the rest of our lives . .
Sweet photo and makes me think of my Dad. My kitty would have loved to have gotten into his wheelchair pocket or curled up on his lap.
pounce . .
Rest in peace lovely little Piton! I am so sorry for your loss. Your adorable photo of her is a touching tribute to how much you loved her.
Such a cute kitty face! 🙂
What a beautiful girl. Know that you will always have a furry angel watching over you.
My furkids and I are sending you a hug.
Piton was adorable, what a lovely kitten she was. Condolences for your loss; it’s never easy saying goodbye to a treasured fur friend, but you will have your wonderful memories of her in your heart always. 🙂
Piton is a beauty. Love sweet picture. I am so sorry for your loss. They may be gone but their memories last forever.
This picture of Piton is adorable! I am very sorry for your loss; how special to have her for the time that you did.
I’m sorry for your loss, but remember you gave her the best life she could ask for and gave her release when she needed it. Thank you for sharing her with us.
I am so sorry. It’s so devastating losing our fur buddies. I think the holes left in our hearts make them more beautiful, eventually like fine lace. Piton looked like a charming, sweet, little girl.
I am sorry about the death of your wonderful cat, Piton.
I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful cat, Piton. She was a very special kitten, and I’m sure she was a wonderful cat. I grieve with you.
Dear little kitty angel. She lived a good long life, obviously because of the loving home you gave her.
Oooh noooo, always too soon, 16 years is wonderful. Sorry for your loss. i grieve with you as well.
I am so sorry for your loss and shed tears and mutual heartache over her passing. Saying goodbye to our pets is never an easy thing. We share our love and homes knowing that they will not be with us forever and our hearts will be broken but the unconditional love that they give us is too dear to resist. It is evident that Piton from her 2 pictures was a whimsical and special fuzz ball. Bless you for giving her a joyful life and knowing when to let go.
I am sorry for your pain. I rejoice that you had each other and a good life together, and thank you so much for sharing both with us.
Very cute kitty in a pouch. I’m so sorry for your loss. Cherish the memories. ^ ^
Special remembrance of darling Piton our heanvenly Star-kit of the Day on TDK!
Some days one feels like one just needs to get to the Rainbow Bridge NOW (meow). But she will be waiting for you. I’m so sorry for your loss.
I am so sorry for your loss. Piton is so adorable in that picture. Sending thoughts and purrs.
Piton was a beautiful cat & I’m glad she shared her life with you & Pixel. I hope Pixel gets lots of attention since she will muss her sis a lot too. I’m very sorry for your loss. I too believe she’s waiting for you on the other side of the bridge.
After leaving pawprints on your heart, Piton has crossed the Rainbow Bridge. I’m sorry for your loss. Pixel will grieve his best buddy and I hope both of you share many snuggles. Someday, you will smile.
Such a lovely girl.. I’m so sorry for your loss.
A beautiful piccy of a beautiful kitten. Piton looks as if climbing on Dad’s chair is the finest occupation on Earth. My deepest sympathy on your loss, but what a wonderful remembrance to be The Daily Kitten!
RIP beautiful Piton. Play and be whole in the meadow at the Rainbow Bridge. I know you will be watching over your family.
Thanks for all your kind comments. Piton did leave her paw prints on my heart! She was a very cuddly affectionate kitty! She had my heart the minute I saw her. She loved to be held and would curl up in the crook of my arm for a nap. She was the one who always insisted very loudly that I hurry up with the canned food. My friend’s who cat sit for me also got the “feed me MEOW”. I pick up her ashes today. I will always have a part of her with me. I still have her sweet sister Pixel and their feline housemate Pipsqueak to keep me company and help heal my broken heart.
Deepest sorrow for you. The only regret to having kitties is that they leave us too soon.
You know, if our pets lived for a hundred years, it still wouldn’t be long enough!!!
