Just heard the saddest news. Our neighbour down the hall, she's lived here as long as we've been in this building. In the manner of big-city apartment dwellers, we don't really know the names of our neighbours but we're friendly with them in the hallways. This lady, we called her the Cat Lady because when we first moved here she had two cats that we'd see often playing in the hallway, but she wasn't a real "cat lady", just a nice woman who happened to have a couple cats. She's the one who had the puppy Kiki. I knew she had breast cancer on both sides but last I'd heard she was in recovery and kicking its ass. Today my mom told me she saw a notice down in the lobby; the Cat Lady died. Her name was Leslie Goldman. I just found that out.
She was a great neighbour. She thought Lily was the prettiest cat she'd ever met. Maybe on some plane of reality, they're hanging out together now. Could be true. |
