With a heart that feels both broken and full of
gratitude, I share the passing of my beloved cat, Bane, at 11 years old. She came into my life when I was just 15 and never left my side. More than a pet, Bane was my best friend, my soul cat, and the one who carried me through some of the hardest and most beautiful years of my life.

Bane was unforgettable. From her fierce little
snaggle teeth to the way she looked at me like I was her whole world. And she was mine. She loved me so deeply and so completely, in that quiet, steady way only a cat can.

Bane was with me through everything, she watched me grow from a teenager into the person I am today. She was there when I graduated high school, and again when I crossed the stage at college. She stuck by me through every move, every new city and unfamiliar room, making each place feel like home just by being there. She stayed close while I interned, produced music late into the night, and chased dreams that once felt so far away. Through every transition, every uncertain step forward, Bane was my constant my anchor, my calm, and the quiet heartbeat behind everything I’ve built. I truly couldn’t have done it without her.

Her presence was grounding. Her love, constant. Her snaggle-toothed smile could melt the heaviest day. She was full of personality and full of heart, and there will never be another like her.

Bane, thank you for loving me the way you did, for growing up with me, for choosing me. You were my home, my comfort, my light in the dark. I will carry your memory with me always and miss you more than words can ever say.

Rest easy, my beautiful girl. I’ll love you forever.
