but named after the singer Israel Kamakawiwo'ole........ a very dear old friend of mine. This kitten was found 'protecting' his dead sister, in the middle of the road. He was no longer than the palm of your hand. He is named after a conversation that I had with 'Iz' about [black and white], purring, p***Y, and protection....and that is the short version, but trust me, it was an all-nighter. Izzy Mo was almost lost to an immediate bladder infection, and suffered thromboembalism for several months after saving his bladder. He still has a [hind] club foot.....but don't tell him ! Even when he was [hind-quartered] paralyzed, he never slowed down. Attachment DeletedYou may not know who Israel is, but you have heard his songs in movies. Most famous probably [somewhere over the rainbow] in a Brad Pitt movie..... Brad Pitt nor Izzy are gay, despite the song being adopted by them.[the homosexuals] Please do not get confused between the two.

I was never able to give Izzy {my sweet dear friend} a hug...... he was so large, the largest person I have ever known that could still walk on their own accord. I would hug his neck, and that felt like a whole body. His size alone made his life way too short. He was the epitome of sweet....loyal....goodness...fun...laughter... and above all....love. His photo should be in Webster's.
Funny story: He laid in the water near shore....kinda fell backwards into the water. We had a few beverages beforehand. I said "Iz, your pushing all the water out of the cove" He said "How do you think the rest of the world gets their tides?"
Life is so short. What the hell is wrong with us ?

His funeral was not just simply the largest I have ever seen. Think back to the JFK funeral....pretty big. There were more people [in the water] than a normal huge funeral has people on land. Everywhere you could see from the cove, on the beach, on the hilltops, everywhere, nothing but people. He was so young. He was angelic. He touched so many. He is so missed. It was so important to save Izzy Mo.....in his memory. [who is at my feet purring....as I type this}
