Back when I'd decided I was ready to have cats, I knew I wanted a tortie. Tortie isn't a breed, but "tortitude" is real and Twitch had it in spades along with polydactyly. She had 26 toes and was 20 years old. Both she and Twitter enriched my life infinitely and I will treasure the memories forever.

Twitch the cat died peacefully in my arms this morning after a long battle with numerous illnesses including feline chronic kidney disease and bladder cancer. For over 12 years she was a source of comfort, hilarity, and joy, and taught me so much about resilience.

She loved watching birds and squirrels, and was an avid hunter of any spiders that dared to make their presence known in this house. She demanded scritches under her chin every morning, and treat time every night.

Yesterday morning my beloved cat of 10 years, Twitter, departed for her next journey. She was 15.
She was a prankster, an athlete, and a master of hiding in plain sight.
