Zeke

Zeke, 1996 - 2013.  From the moment we saw Zeke at the Winnipeg Humane Society at the tender age of 6 weeks, we knew that he was the one for us. From his cute tabby kitten days to his final year, Zeke always displayed love and affection that brightened our day. As a kitten he loved to run, play and hide. Some days he would curl up inside our pillow case or inside the linen closet, waiting for us to return home. Our leather sofa bore all the signs of a playful kitten. Zeke loved to play chase and was always ready for a game of "attack the hand".  

Zeke was also a traveler. From his early years in Winnipeg, he moved with the family to Mexico in 1999 and loved the opportunity to find new creatures to play with including spiders and scorpions. Zeke loved lying in the sun on cool days and on the tile floor on hot days. He moved back to Winnipeg with his family in 2003 and slowly moved from being an inside cat to one that loved the outdoors. He loved our kids and would always sleep across the top of our pillow during the night, slowly taking over the whole pillow by morning. The last years of his life were spent on a family acreage in the Winkler area where he clearly loved life. He would always recognize his "real family" whenever we came by to visit and was clearly loved by all who cared for him.
