This is my twenty-sixth post for IWSG.

| Cajsa, born, 29th May 1999, died 9th July 2015 |
This is the very last photo of my first cat, Cajsa. My daughter, Elisabet, and her father, took Cajsa to the vet's, where she was put to sleep.
Cajsa was suffering from cancer tumors and, being already 16 years old, she did not have much strength to fight it.
Cajsa was the mother of thirteen kittens in three litters. She was my dear friend, companion, inspiration and comfort. May she rest in peace.
Cajsa is buried on the farm in a grave next to her daughter, Sara, who died 6th February 2013.
Cajsa's daughter, Matilda (born 5th April 2011) is now my sole, cat-companion.

Matilda's daughter, Rosetta, spent three weeks with us this summer (4th-26th July).

Mostly, mother and daughter got along well:
 |
| with some bickering... |
 |
| and making up afterwards. |
 |
| Is this alright? |
Eventually, in September, we will have a new cat, as Elisabet's own, little Vanessa, born in June. (She is the grandchild of the cat Anna-Lisa, Rosetta's paternal grandmother. Vanessa is Rosetta's cousin):
In spite of Elisabet's cat-fur-allergy, we are not quite finished with cats. I am not getting much writing done. Maybe I could write a cat story or two? Some day.
Right now I really need to write an essay for my History course first.
Best wishes,
Anna
