Saturday, 3/15, I lost a beautiful kitten. She had a stroke about a week ago and valiantly lived for days. She was born just after the fire destroyed everything last year, but she just wasn't made right and was on KMR for 3 months, before she would even eat solid foods. She had 5 sisters, but out of the five only she and her sister Calypso survived. They were born almost a week after her brothers were born, Barbosa, Baltazar and Bascomby were as big and healthy as the girls were small and sickly. I believe they had different fathers, most likely. Their mother Cassandra was a stray. But I took her in just before this last bunch of babies were born. And now she had a nice home with her family.
It wasn't until she had her stroke that she would accept a name. She like the name Hailley very much and act so much like another cat, Lucinda, who survived the fire, but circummed to it's effects, 2 months ago...I think since Lucinda, who turned bad on 1/16 and died the morning of 1/17, was such a love and didn't want to go, that she made an attempt to get back, by jumping into Hailley's body since she wasn't strong enough being the runt to keep her out.

This happens all the time with humankind...They go in to have an operation, or go unconscious from an accident and wake up a different person. Animals can do this too, But since Hailley wasn't of strong body the spirit trying to return through her put too much strain on her poor body, and caused a hemorrhage in her brain.
