Ember Collins

You were a force of nature, Ember—wild and unpredictable one moment, then melting into my arms the next, purring softly as we lay together on my bed in those quiet moments that meant everything. Your hunting prowess was legendary, and somehow you brought that same fierce energy to batting a ball around like you were the greatest footballer who ever lived, turning our home into your personal stadium. But what I'll miss most is that contradiction that made you so perfectly you: the crazy zoomies and fearless pounces mixed with the softest cuddles and those slow blinks that said you loved me just as much as I loved you. Thank you for every wild, beautiful, extraordinary day, my sweet Ember.
