My mom and Nancy adopted Cady as a tiny kitten 19 years ago this fall. From nose to tail she fit in the palm of their hands when they brought her home and she captured all of our hearts right off the bat. From her having to jump onto the side of the bed or couch and pull herself up to the top to her no longer being able to get onto the bed, Cady lived a full life where she was well loved and gave back so much love in return.
She was one of the sweetest most harmless cats you could ever meet. She really just wanted you to sit on the couch so she could come and snuggle up next to you for hours at a time. She enjoyed many adventures throughout her life: summer camp at Grandma's, camping, hiking, kayaking, canoeing, biking, etc. Cady was quite a trooper putting up with many activities and while she may not have been the most adventurous cat, she just enjoyed that she got to spend time with her people.
Here she is out on a hike, sometimes she would ride in the carrier my mom was wearing and sometimes she would just walk.
Getting ready for a canoe adventure.
Looking at the water, or something exciting with my aunt and grandma.
Resting in her bed. She loved beds like this. Such a beautiful cat!
This is a picture of Cady in her bed the night before we had to put her down. She had kidney problems and was dehydrated and losing weight (you can't really tell in the photo because she still took great care of herself but she was down to 6lbs and just skin and bone). Even towards the end she was a happy cat who still just wanted to be loved. Thankfully with the animals we love and hold dear we are able to help them go with diginity before they have to experience too much pain. 
Here is a photo of Jaydon saying 'goodbye.'

This is so wonderful Sarah. I'm crying again, but that is a good thing. It lets us know how much we have had and how much Cady gave to us.
Much love, Nancy
