today is my cat hui-hui's 14th birthday ~ turning 14 on the 14th. it should be quite lucky, and she has been in a way ~ just a month ago, i was not so sure that she'd make it this long actually.

you see, for those of you who don't know, we discovered that hui-hui has a giant tumor in her abdomen, possibly cancer. her eating & bowel movements have varied from normal to not so much. she weighs at most four pounds now. her condition was improving in the last week or two, but it seems that she has become considerably weaker these past few days.

anyhow, today is my darling girl's birthday, and unfortunately, i can't be there with her. she is lucky enough, though, to have my parents there with her. carrying her, they took her for a walk around our lake this afternoon, and my mother baked her some kitty biscuits.

here is a photo of mom with hui-hui:


hui-hui's been a part of the family since she was a baby; the two of us have grown up together. happy birthday, my sweet girl~
