Tomato's Farewell -- Page Three

June, 1998

Later that day, the PTB took me into intensive care at the TLC Cat Club. I didn't really feel like having tons more medicine that wasn't going to do much for me, so everyone was just very nice to me and over the next few days all my favorite people came to say good-bye.

Tomato with JudahThen Judah came to see me one last time. He's the person who's holding me in my favorite photo. (You only see his arms.) I knew why he was coming: Judah runs the TLC Cat Club and he was the one who brought me to Best Friends in the first place when I was found in the trash bin. I knew he'd be the one holding me when it was time for me to go back to the Great Cat.

If I do become part of the Great Cat, I'll try to keep in touch with you. And if I become a guardian angel, like Tammy says I might, I'll keep an eye out for you if you need a special favor.

And, since this is my last report, I'd just like to say that it's been great being here and being your investigative reporter - and even getting to be famous. I've had a great time.

Well, I think that's it. Nobody likes long good-byes, so thank you again, and this is me, Tomato, signing off.


   From the PTB: Tomato went over the Rainbow Bridge later that day and was laid to rest at Angels Rest here at the sanctuary. A posthumous Purrlitzer Prize for his unique contribution to journalism is now hanging in his former office at Benton's House.
