Whoa, Black Buddy, Bam-a-lam

Two years ago today my cat, Rishi, aka Buddy, passed away. He was such a great cat. He loved to sit on my lap. If I were reading a magazine or newspaper, he would lie down right in the middle of it. He also loved plastic wrap.
When I bought a new CD or opened a candy cane, he would go crazy trying to get the plastic wrap from me. He had a strange fascination with banana peels. When I had a banana, he'd get in my lap and bat at the peel. He used to jump onto the kitchen counter and then to the top of the refrigerator just to hang out and watch me cook. Crazy cat. I still miss him. I lit a black candle for him today.
