The loss of a cat is immeasurable. But so is the love left behind. – Unknown
Losing a cat is also losing a part of yourself forever. For 16 long and beautiful years, Mrs. Andrews and her cat were together.
Unfortunately, the sweet cat passed away and this left Mrs. Tonya Andrews devastated.
Any pet owner would know what she’s been dealing with and how painful this is for her. Life wouldn’t be the same without Blondie.
Even though she was devastated, she still went to work and fulfilled her duties as a teacher.
Her students, however, saw that something was wrong. Her eyes gave away the pain she was dealing with.
Rachel Hanhart was one of Mrs. Andrew’s students and the one who first noticed that something was wrong. According to her interview with Inside Edition:
“She was sitting at her desk and we were all just doing our work,” she recalled in her interview. “She began crying and we asked her what was wrong. She told us that her 16-year-old cat had died.”
Mrs. Andrews’ beloved cat, Blondie passed away and she was left with a broken heart. You can clearly see it in her eyes.
What else can these kind students do to cheer up their beloved Mrs. Andrews?
Rachel and her friends had a brilliant and sweet idea.
Just in time, the mother of one of the students was able to search for 2 beautiful kittens that needed a forever home.
Rachel Hanhart and her friends prepared a simple surprise for their beloved teacher.
They prepared flowers, balloons, cupcakes and they brought the 2 beautiful kittens to school.
They were all nervous but also very excited.
“We all were emotional before even entering the room. Not upset by any means, but more anxious than anything,” Rachel recalled.
They slowly entered the classroom and they first presented Mrs. Andrews with beautiful flowers and then the cute cupcake.
Mrs. Tonya Andrews said “Thank you” and hugged her student, just then, the balloons were given to her.
Still, she wasn’t even aware of what the real surprise was.
She gasped when she saw the 2 adorable kittens being brought to her. Then tears of pure joy and love were seen on her sweet face.
The cute kittens had red ribbons on them. Mrs. Andrews held them and kissed them, welcoming these adorable babies in her life.
One of Rachel’s classmates captured this beautiful moment and shared it on her Twitter account.
“Mrs. Andrews began to cry because of the flowers, but then she saw the kittens and I don’t even know how to describe her reaction. It was amazing. I think at that point everyone had tears in their eyes,” Rachel shared with Inside Edition.
Mrs. Andrews was more than just surprised; she was so happy that these 2 kittens, now called Missy and Girlie have come to her life.
Together, we’re sure that they would make wonderful memories together as a family!
