Sad day today

Today I said goodbye to my cat Quantum. Quantum and I had been together for 16 years. Quantum came into my life right after I graduated from college and right when I started my first post graduate job. She was about 6 weeks old when I got her. She was my special kitty. Over the last year she had been having lots of medical problems. She was down to skin and bones but still loved to jump in my lap and purr. She passed away very peacefully at the vet's office this morning with me by her side. I am going to miss Quantum.
