Happy 16th Birthday, Zephyr

Posted By on August 22, 2014

We celebrated Zephyr’s birthday this year the same as every year that she has been a part of our lives – with her favorite angel food cake. The celebrations were always important to Mark and I, but now that we have Sam, they have become true parties. Sam usually makes Zephyr decorations, is frantic to ensure that there are presents, and she showers Zephyr with attention all day long because it is her special day.

This year was no different. Sam couldn’t wait for the party to start. She put all the candles on Zephyr’s cake and happily sang to her. She said she would blow out Zephyr’s candles for her.

As always, Zephyr happily munched down on her favorite cake.

After the cake, it was on to presents! Sam picked this our for Zephyr months ago at Petsmart. She couldn’t wait to give it to her best little cat.

This year’s celebration was an odd one for me. Zephyr is 16 now, and it is always in the back of my mind that I don’t know how many more celebrations we will have with our sweet little cat. She is such an important part of our family. Mark and I will always be grateful to her for making us a family. And even though we had Muffin for a while after Sam was born, Zephyr is really the first cat she remembers having as a pet, and so, she is extra special. Sam loves her little pal as much as we do.

Here are some pics of our beautiful cat. We love you, Zephyr. Happy Birthday!
