I finally got what I think is my second encounter of a spirit.
As in a few of my comments, I have a cat which is a mix of a Turkish Angora cat (white coated, with yellow and blue eyes) and a Bombay cat (black short fur, with yellow eyes). This little fluff is basically a black version of a Turkish Angora cat. His mother, Aurora (the Turkish Angora), used to have 3 more kittens: a white and black short hair, a black tailed white and a silky grey (or was it white, black spotted? Sorry I forgot) with blue eyes. We gave away the 3 of them but just could not take the black fluff away from Aurora since she took extra care of him somehow. We ended up keeping the little black fluff and named him Henrique.
Three months after having Henrique in our home, we found that Aurora had a tragic accident and was found a few days later by my sister, right under a dump truck. Henrique seems fine without Aurora but I personally felt very sorry for this poor little kitten.
Exactly 1 year has passed after Aurora had gone away. Henrique has grown and his beautiful eyes had become shinier just like his mother's. During these periods we found that Henrique would go to the same spot, almost every day except rainy days, to where the body of his mother was found. We sometimes will hear that his soft mew, a few times he was rubbing his body at the ground. We thought that he could still smell his mother and still missed her very much.
Last Sunday morning (around 6am), I saw Henrique going to the same spot again. I went out with him this time. He was looking back at me as if he was making sure I am following him. He sat at the spot where we found Aurora's body and looked at me. Suddenly, I felt a soft wind went passed my legs. I thought that was because I was wearing a sandal but then I felt what I think is a fury feeling swiping around my left foot then to my right foot. Henrique gave me a glance as if he was telling me to squat down to touch whatever that was rubbing against my feet.
I squatted down and the fury feeling gone away. I whispered, "Aurora," and reached out my hands. The fury feeling came back and I felt it with my hands this time. I made sure that I was not touching Henrique; of course Henrique was not touching me at that moment. I heard what I thought was Henrique's soft mew, again. I was looking at Henrique and he was making the innocent face back at me.
The fury feeling lasted quite shortly (I think it was about 2 or 3 minutes). Henrique rubbed against my right buttock (since I was still squatting) and went back in the house. My eyes started watering as if I had cut some onion. I did not feel sad, I almost had no emotions during that time but my eyes was pouring out tears. I do not know how to explain it. It was just very complicated, but I could tell that during that 2 or 3 minutes Aurora had come by. Physically, I saw nothing, really just nothing in front of me, but I am sure I did felt that strange feeling.
Sorry again since it is not scary at all. But I do hope that people who would read this story has encounter that same strange but very comforting sensation that I had.
Thank you very much for your patient to read this story.

Girl25, Interesting, what I know are kittens learn quite quickly, and they temp to know how to set up a game they learn to play themselves, like a 2 years old child. Their observation ability is surprisingly high that sometimes amazes us. I am so sorry about the lost though.
Lady-glow, I did try to find a logical explanation but at that moment I don't know how, but I just knew that it was her.
Yes, my family always says that Henrique is just like the "shadow" of Aurora he have every beautiful features of both his parents. You know what? Henrique was kissing (licking?) my fingers as I tried to write this comments to you lol, I think he wants to say thank you too. I will try not to stress myself too much; I only go to that spot when I remember these days.
OCGirl, Yes! I do agree that there is still a connection, that morning was a special morning really and something tells me that that moment my apologies was bequeathed to her.
