Happy Birthday!

Essu is fifteen today! She's our dear, beloved queen who has grown sweeter and more social along the years. The other night she slept on my back, as I always sleep on my tummy.

She's been fighting a wicked daughter who hated her; a bout of lymphoma and more recently, two impervious tomcats who challenge her to defend herself. Luckily, she an Aries – ev'ry inch the Warrior Cat.
