#43: RIP Sniffles
After their beloved cat passed away, a family couldn’t shake the feeling that their furry friend hadn’t really left. At night, they heard the soft padding of paws on the floor and the familiar weight of a cat settling at the foot of the bed. Even though they knew Sniffles was gone, the presence felt real—comforting, not scary.
The feeling lingered for weeks, always tied to the same spots in the house where the cat loved to nap or play. But once the family moved, it stopped entirely. That’s when they realized it might not have been grief or imagination. Maybe Sniffles had stayed behind in the only home he ever knew. Whether it was a ghost or just memory taking shape, they were grateful for the lingering presence of the cat they loved so much.
