Alexis Hackney heard meowing from a house’s basement in 2014 and went to check. Trooper was in the wall, which is why Alexis phoned her mother and sister; they had to destroy the wall with a sledgehammer only to remove the cat.
“She was about two weeks old at the time.” “Her eyes were barely open,” Alexis said.
They carried the lovely kitty to their house in Florida, where Sarah Whaley – Hackney’s grandmother resided, since Trooper’s mother could not be found.
Sarah Whaley began bottle feeding her, taking a seat and telling Trooper how adorable and wonderful she is. Trooper’ is the cat who has loved one lady more than any other in the world, and that is Sarah.
Everyone can see how much Whaley loved Trooper, and how much Trooper loved Whaley, but the whole family didn’t realize how close they were until Sarah Whaley got extremely sick.
Sarah Whaley began to deteriorate around Christmas, and they began to notice Trooper was always around her.
Trooper like sleeping on Sarah’s bed, despite the fact that she has a variety other beds from around the home.
“She was never the type to pick up toys and move them around the house, but when my grandmother couldn’t move anymore, Trooper would bring whatever she found on the floor to her,” Alexis said.
Trooper upped the quantity of material she was carrying as Sarah became ill and sicker; she’d go to Alexis brother’s room and simply collect whatever from there and dump it downstairs and set it on the floor.
Trooper’s eyes show that she was aware of what was going on and was concerned.
Sarah would suffer panic attacks now and again, and Trooper would rush to her side to soothe her.
“Trooper would run in there and hop on the bed, and she’d just start petting and feeling her, and she’d calm down,” Hackney said. “I think having Trooper there was definitely calming for my grandmother when she started getting to the point where she couldn’t communicate anymore.”
Sadly, Sarah died a few days before her 97th birthday, and Trooper was inconsolable in his grief. She didn’t want to be anywhere near Sarah’s body. They needed to take Trooper there to show Sarah that she would not be returning, but Trooper ran away and hid beneath Alexis’ parents’ bed. Trooper had stopped eating after Sarah’s burial and was simply roaming about the house.
Trooper is doing better now, however she still enters Sarah’s room and puts socks and other items on the floor. It’s clear that she misses Sarah terribly.
Cats certainly have emotions; they simply aren’t as effective at displaying them as dogs are. They do, however, adore us. Let us love and look after them. They are deserving of unconditional love!
