																		Yesterday, 
																		March 3, 
																		2012 our 
																		beautiful 
																		Firefly 
																		crossed 
																		over the 
																		rainbow 
																		bridge. 
																		She was 
																		just shy 
																		of 19 
																		years 
																		old - to 
																		turn on 
																		March 5. 
																		Firefly 
																		was a 
																		special 
																		cat from 
																		the 
																		minute 
																		she was 
																		born. 
																		She was 
																		a show 
																		girl the 
																		moment 
																		she 
																		stepped 
																		out onto 
																		the 
																		judges 
																		table 
																		and had 
																		her 
																		trademark 
																		of 
																		stretching 
																		and 
																		putting 
																		her butt 
																		in the 
																		air in 
																		each and 
																		every 
																		ring. 
																		She 
																		showed 
																		at a 
																		time 
																		when it 
																		was 
																		difficult 
																		for a 
																		girl to 
																		compete 
																		but 
																		Firefly 
																		had no 
																		problem 
																		taking 
																		on the 
																		boys. 
																		She just 
																		missed a 
																		NW back 
																		in1993 
																		by just 
																		a slim 
																		margin. 
																		Firefly 
																		had 
																		broken 
																		her leg 
																		a couple 
																		of weeks 
																		ago and 
																		it just 
																		took its 
																		toll on 
																		her. She 
																		was the 
																		ambassador 
																		of cats 
																		at our 
																		home and 
																		made 
																		many pet 
																		buyers 
																		want one 
																		just 
																		like her 
																		but that 
																		was 
																		impossible. 
																		We are 
																		so 
																		thankful 
																		that Sue 
																		and Bill 
																		allowed 
																		Firefly 
																		to 
																		become a 
																		special 
																		part of 
																		our life 
																		and 
																		family. 
																		She is 
																		already 
																		greatly 
																		missed 
																		and will 
																		be 
																		forever. 
																		She is 
																		now with 
																		some of 
																		the 
																		great 
																		cats 
																		that 
																		passed 
																		before 
																		her.

												It 
                                                is hard to not shed a tear when 
                                                talking of this boy. If you go 
                                                back to our intro page we talk 
                                                about going to a local cat show 
                                                and discovering this breed - this 
                                                is the boy who changed our lives 
                                                for ever. Troy aka as "Uncle 
                                                Buck" was the kitty who opened 
                                                up doors for us beyond imagination. 
                                                He was our first Maine Coon. He 
                                                was the official greeter, teacher 
                                                of all antics to the youngsters, 
                                                and best friend to all who met 
                                                him. All who visited would say 
                                                "We want one just like Troy", 
                                                but that was never possible. He 
                                                was a very special cat in many 
                                                ways. He could open doors, drink 
                                                a glass of milk daily with his 
                                                paw, lay in bed snoring loudly, 
                                                just to name a few of his unique 
                                                qualities.Things will never be 
                                                the same around here without him 
                                                - the doors stay closed, his special 
                                                glass sits empty but he will live 
                                                on in our hearts for ever and 
                                                ever.
