Princess Marcoux

June 17, 2021

Princess Marcoux passed away peacefully, surrounded by her loving family, on June 17 th, 2021. She was loved by everyone who had the privilege to spend time with her. Extended family and friends came to know what her family had known since taking her in as a stray kitten almost fourteen years ago; there was something special about Princess. Princess loved the outdoors and was the perfect mix of an indoor and outdoor cat. She was a skilled hunter but equally playful and affectionate. Princess quickly became the neighborhood cat; many of the neighbors left out treats and gave her affection; however, she always made it back home for bedtime snuggles and evening snacks. She woke up as the household prepared for the day and dutifully accompanied the children down the long lane to the bus stop each morning, and returned in the afternoon to see them home safely. Princess was precise in her routines; persistent meows and stares continued until her food and water bowls were filled to maximum capacity. She drove a hard bargain but repaid her family with endless love and affection. She was highly social and affectionate and often gave kisses by touching her nose to whoever was petting her. She would often take long naps sitting on someone’s lap and purred loudly in appreciation for the affection she received. Princess came to our household as a kitten surrounded by a baby and small children. We were blessed to watch her grow as she and the children became teenagers together. She was a beloved and irreplaceable member of our family, and we are eternally grateful for the love, companionship, and laughs she brought to our lives. Although we must say see you later, for now, we will hold you near our hearts and cherish your memory always. With all of our love, Madison (Cat Mom and best-friend), Jean, Mom, and Dad
