Jivamukitti, b. 2004 d. 2005
It seems silly to talk about a cat as being the most enlightened being I’ve ever had the fortune of meeting, but Jivamukitti, the cat whose graced Jess and my lives for the past year, has been a tremendous teacher.
He taught us the secret of Jivamukti - do the things that make you happy and love everyone. Jivamukitti didn’t have mean bone in his body; probably the most mellow cat I’ve ever known, even when the 2-year old next door tried to pick him up by his tail. Repeatedly.
Perhaps he knew his work here was done; he spent much more time with us over the past few days, even climbing up in our chairs to snuggle.
In my heart I know he’s done his work here with Jess and me, and has chosen to take rebirth in some other place to bring peace and love to others who need it.
Because that’s who he was. Pure love. Kittified.
