Giggles Salyer

June 27, 2020

Giggles was born in Muncie, Indiana, in June 2006. Her pet mom, Denetria, was five years old when Giggles was adopted at only ten weeks of age. She was a preschool graduation gift from Denetria’s mom. She was so small she fit in a jacket pocket! They grew up together sharing lots of love and wonderful memories. Her nicknames included Gigs, Fatness and Princess Giggles (a very spoiled cat!). She had a whole basket of toys, but her favorites were her pink mouse and blue ball with a bell inside. She loved playing with raw spaghetti noodles and milk rings or caps. Besides sleeping, eating and watching TV, Giggles would scream for treats and run around the house like she was crazy at 3:00am! She enjoyed playing fetch and would actually bring the ball back and lay it down at your feet, waiting for you to throw it again. Giggles did not like getting brushed, loud kids or dogs. She didn’t like not being fed first thing in the morning (she would meow your ear off the second 5:00am struck). Among her favorite places to sleep were on top of shoes, the back of the couch, on the end of the bed, and on a shoe rack in the back of the closet. Denetria’s favorite memories were the time she taught Giggles how to do tricks like sit and spin in a circle; when she would chase after her favorite toy and be silly and hyper like a child; and when she was given kitty nip and did weird spins, then trip over her own feet. In addition to Denetria, Giggles is survived by her human grandmother, B.J. Wilson and three pet guinea pigs. Giggles could be caught laying by their cage asleep or just looking at them.
