Her name is Eva.

How i found her:
While finishing up trick or treating with my neighbor, we spotted a cat sitting on the sidewalk. We went up to her and i tried to take a picture of her, but it was too dark. Defeated and realizing it was getting late, we decided to go back home, but as we walked away she followed. Walking on the sidewalk, she actually led us from the front as if she knew where we were going. When she fell behind so that she was in the back, she would run after to catch up. Despite us going to houses on our way back, she never ended up staying there; she made sure she stayed with us. But only two streets later, she stopped at the corner of the sidewalk as we crossed the street and just sat there.
As if to say "I'll stay here." My neighbor said "Maybe she doesnt want to wander too far from home?" So we said goodbye to her and went back across the street. At the corner of the other street, i turned around and told her "You can come with us if you want." She immediately got up, ran after us, and continued to follow us. Once home, Eva stayed at my house; outside in on the front porch. So she was free to leave any time she wanted. But she only stayed for a day.
She was nowhere to be found the morning of November 2nd. The night before, i couldnt find her. I soon realized that when my mom let the dogs outside, my dog Kiba chased her up the neighbor's tree. I went over there to get her and she quickly came down on her own. I left her outside on the front porch; like always, but that was the last time i saw her. I miss her. I wanted to keep her. She was a great model and always looked at the camera with such soul. Not to mention her eyes are absolutely beautiful.


Her name comes from Evangelion. I wanted to name her that because she was like a guardian to me; she was noble and watched over us Halloween night. But calling her Evangelion seemed too long of a name and i didnt want to call her Angel because its such a typical name, so i went for Eva; short for Evangelion. I know that the Eva.s are actually demons, but one of them saved Shinji Ikari right? So not all demons are bad. Thats why im okay with calling this angel by a demon's name. ^^ Besides, angels and demons are the same thing, only different sides of the same penny.
But the possibility of her already being dead does still cross my mind; instead of her having a "M" on her forehead like most mixed cats, she had a __^__ [as you can half ways see in this pic] which symbolizes someone who has accepted their death (to the Japanese).
