4/5/2012 - Continue with Bart's story from yesterday. 

This picture was taken from 3 years ago today (4/5/2009) and it might give a better view of Bart's fibrosarcoma.  Even as of today, when I think of Bart, I still feel sad and sorry for her because she was the only cat that is not lethargic or severely ill internally but must put to sleep (in 8/2009) by Ball and Fatty.  Ball and Fatty were extremely sad at the time, like any other time, but they felt guilty too because they had to witness Bart being put to sleep while still having clear consciousness.  I still remember Bart was an active and happy cat despite she always betrayed us or tricked us into troubles.  But when one of us was sick, mad, or sad, Bart was almost always the first cat coming to us for comforting.  As shown in the following picture taken a day before Lung passed away (8/7/2008), Bart was trying to comfort Lung when he was already very sick.

Bart has also become the public relation star cat in this house by greeting strangers after Chung left us.  Like the following picture from 7/15/2006, Bart proactively welcomed May Yan, our original human mommy, and her oldest son Matthew, or Ball's nephew.  MaGi and Mui were just laying nearby without much action.

Another evidence of Bart's friendliness can be found in the following picture from 8/12/2007.  Bart was the cat who was welcoming Matthew's brothers, twins, Ryan and Jonathan too. 

Bart, along with my siblings and other cats, is or will always be in my memory.

4 years ago today (4/5/2008), as evident in this picture, 6 of us were sleeping together happily despite Lung's kidney was failing gradually.  From left: Lung, Bart, Lik, Mui (closer to the camera), me (further away from the camera), and MaGi.

May be I am just silly or my memory is just exceptional, none of these scenes has ever been erased from my memory.
