DerryDowns Caiomhe of Haya-Ji
Seal Silver Lynx Tortie Point Oriental
Longhair Spay
DOB:12/10/1999, DOD: 7/4/04
Caiomhe (pronounced like Kiwi) passed
away on July 4, 2004 of a disease called amyloidosis.
Unfortunately, this disease is not uncommon in the Siamese,
Balinese, Javanese and Oriental populations. She had been
with a very loving pet home for almost three years, but
she was still my first love. I fell in love with her as
a kitten and love her still, and hope that she is waiting
for me over the Rainbow Bridge.
A beautiful poem written for her
by one of her kids, Christina...
A Delicate
Beauty
Flowers,
how dare you continue your perennial bloom!
Trees, what provocation bid you to reach forth the
sky on this day!
End this derision now!
For a beauty has been summoned
Summoned to rest in mortality's dulcet caress
Redwood,
follow the lead of the weeping willow
And cry for the loss of a divine queen
Stars, sparkle your most palatial twinkle
And birds, sing your most sweet elegy
Tis time
for this oh so delicate creature to be laid to rest
And welcome the Angels bittersweet arrival
Come sweet
Earth, let us bid her farewell
For on this momentous day,
Life has suffered a great loss
The death of a delicate beauty
-Christina,
Age 16

Words from her loving owners:
"That’s our puppy Buster. He loved
playing with her and she with him as you can see they
hung out together. When he’d get a little too bothersome
to her she’d raise her paw and hiss like a mom and
he’d back down. :-) "
Caiomhe was always happiest when being held and
cuddled. She loved her boys very much!

Caiomhe being adored like a queen, as she should
be of course! :-)
