I knew from the minute I saw you in that tiny cage at the humane society with that little hand written sign saying “I’m a cuddler” that Allah (swt) had meant for us to be together.   Every day has been brighter and happier because of you and I thank Allah (swt) for bringing you into my life.

I love you Squeakster.

From Sunan Abu Dawud, an example of how our mother Aisha (ra) treated cats:

Narrated Aisha, Ummul Mu’minin:

Dawud ibn Salih ibn Dinar at-Tammar quoted his mother as saying that her mistress sent her with some pudding (harisah) to Aisha who was offering prayer. She made a sign to me to place it down. A cat came and ate some of it, but when Aisha finished her prayer, she ate from the place where the cat had eaten. She stated: The Messenger of Allah (saws) said: It is not unclean: it is one of those who go round among you. She added: I saw the Messenger of Allah (saws) performing ablution from the water left over by the cat.
