I went to visit my mother this past Easter and when we were talking, she told me about “The White Angelic Cat”. My mother’s closest friend is a woman named Diane. They have been close for many years. When I was a child, my mother was at a get-together at Diane’s home. It was a very hot summer day in July and everyone was hanging out by the pool. My mother decided to cool off and relax in Diane’s living room. My mother is not a big fan of the heat. As she was sitting on the couch relaxing, she noticed this beautiful long haired white cat peeking it’s head out from the hallway that lead to the living room. Unlike me, my mother is not a big animal lover. But this cat was so beautiful. She had never seen such a beautiful animal before. The cat had big blue eyes with a spectacular white coat, and when it walked, it looked just like an angel.
The cat started walking towards my mother, then jumped up on the couch next to her. She started petting it. My mother described the experience as healing and very soothing. She spent about ten minutes with the cat and then it walked back into the hallway. My mother decided to go outside and ask Diane about this white cat. She said “Diane, when did you get that beautiful white cat?” Diane replied “Grace, we don’t have a cat.” Diane turned to her family and asked them “Do we have a cat?”, and they replied “No, what cat?” Diane then told my mother that until now, she was the only one that has been able to see him. After my mother finished telling me the story about this white cat, she asked me “Why are you are smiling?”
Then I told her: “It was when I was about eight years old and I remember you taking me to Diane’s for her to baby sit me. Diane put me to bed and I remember not being able to sleep. I still have a hard time falling asleep in a strange bed. After tossing and turning for about an hour, a very sweet white cat came into the room I was sleeping in and hopped on the bed beside me. I held the cat next to me and before I knew it I fell fast asleep”.
