With heavy hearts and souls, we said goodbye to our gentle and fun-loving Miss Newton who, at 4:14 p.m. Monday afternoon, defied the laws of gravity and soared as the newest angel at the Rainbow Bridge to the warm, mousie-filled Summerlands beyond. She was helped by a favorite and understanding veterinarian and a gentle vet tech, was brushied and petted by Mom and Dad who whispered love in her ears and was surrounded by her beloved IKEA mousies who accompanied her on her journey.

Miss Newton joined Colehaus in 2010 when she was somewhere between the age of 2 and 4 – a refined girl rarely reveals her true age, and personally handpicked her Dad during his first ever visit to the Humane Society. A few months later at home, she took young Pia under her wing and helped make her the Ginger Princess she is today.

Miss Newton enjoyed many things as a member of Colehaus, among those being breakfast and dinner served in silver bowls by Dad, forehead grooming by Pia, tussling with Quint and Tessa, carrying her IKEA mousies, clawing the pleather couch, clawing Dad’s jeans, Disco music, scampering up and down the stairs, burying invisible specks of food found on the floor, using the floor as her personal litterbox wipe, our local PBS channel (especially if Dad’s jeans were nearby), french fries and her family. Additionally, she took the fine art of evening yowling to a new level not soon to be surpassed (Mom can only hope) by anyone.

Miss Newton passed knowing she was very loved by Mom, Olivia and Pia, and had a special place in Dad’s heart. In fact, she was Daddy’s girl. She also left knowing canned Wellness food would never stand up to Fancy Feast, that laptop computers were no competition for attention when she wanted it and not a single member of the Kardashian family would ever matter one wit to her.

Mom just read this to us and we’re all crying. We know how much you loved Miss Newton and how much she loved you. She was the Grande Dame of Colehaus and she wore the title beautifully. We can only hope she ran into Shakespeare on the other side of the bridge and told him hi for us. Please know that we are sending plenty of hugs and purrs to all of you.
