Let me start by saying that having a gift for feeling things runs in my family, it seems to skip a generation. I never considered myself to posses this gift,even through years of hearing about it,until about 7 years ago.

I was about14 my mother and i had moved in with my grandparents about 3 years prior to this insident, because my mother was sick and was not capable of taking care of herself or me for that matter.The house was way back in the boonies the nearest town was about 30 mins away, so you can imagine it was pretty boring for a 14 year old. My grandmother got me a cat from the lady down the road who had a ton of them, i guess to keep me entertained. I loved this cat i had always been a cat lover and was never able to have one.

Well one day we found out that she was about to have kittens and she did about 4 of them. Before they got old enough to do anything with we had to kill one because it was sickly and would not make it. We kept the rest until they got big enough to give away and we did, all except one that my mother said i could keep. Now the mother was an outside cat, so she didnt stay around the house that much but the kitten was always around so i grew very attached to this cat.

One day my grandmother was backing out of the drive way and did not see her, she hit the cat and killed her. I was very upset and had a little funeral for her and put her under an apple tree. Some kids from down the road knew about this and desided that they would dig her up to see what a decaying cat looked like, I was very upset about this and did my best to fix the grave.

Well about a week later i was laying in bed sleeping and got awakened by a strange feeling that something was looking at me, I opened my eyes and started to look around the room, I didnt see anything or anyone. About that time i got a feeling that i should look down on the floor and i did, between my two dressers which sat side by side with just a small space in between sat this cat, plain as day, except i could almost see through her. Let me tell you it scared the crap out of me. It only lasted for a min. i looked away to make sure i was not seeing things and when i looked back it was gone.

Ever since then i have had strange experiances,especially with cats. The one i just recently had died for no reason and i can still feel her jump up on the bed or the couch once in a while or hit me with a tail or paw. Out of the corner of my eye ill see her. It does not scare me anymore though i feel its just her way of saying im alright and im happy. I have had other paranormal situations ill write about those later.
