Very sweet, from the vet clinic for Onyx. It was a horrible situation, but they were so incredibly caring and considerate. ❤️

It’s difficult to put into words the relationship Onyx and I have shared over the past almost 3 years. To most people, she’s a cat. To me, she’s been so much more than that. She was my coworker, my partner, the one whose fur I cried into when no one else would understand. She was unique in so many ways, but she was the one animal in my life that ever chose just me. She liked everyone, but she made it clear I was her person. She couldn’t talk very well, but she communicated perfectly. From adopting me on Halloween, to tanning with me, to sitting in on my Zoom meetings with YBGR, to helping me do massages, to making the trip to Minnesota, she has been my near-constant companion. When we left Spasha, I promised her I wouldn’t leave her, that she would be with me for the rest of her life…. and I kept that promise.

These last two and a half months have been the best I could have asked for for her. She got her own house without other animals being mean to her, she had plenty of love and snuggles and treats and special foods. But she continued to decline in health, and it became clear she would not be making the trip back home. The way she has looked at me the last few days felt like she knew it was time, and she was telling me it was ok to let her go… asking me to take the pain away and make it stop. It’s one of the most difficult and heart-wrenching decisions I’ve ever had to make.

So it is with a very heavy heart that I say goodbye to the cat who allowed me to rescue her, and rescued me in return. She was my angel in a fur coat, and she will leave an Onyx-sized hole in my heart with her absence that she filled and grew with her presence. At 12:38 pm today, Onyx passed peacefully away, purring in my arms. She’s been instructed to wait for me at the Bridge, and I’ll find her when I get there.

Until then, farewell, my faithful friend. Thank you for the years you gave to me. I will forever be grateful for the time we spent together and the joy you brought to my life. As much as this hurts, I wouldn’t trade those years for anything, and I’d do it all again if given the choice. I love you now, and will love you always. 🖤

Spitfire - blocker #305

Let me introduce you to the short, redheaded, easy going blocker named Spitfire! She’s sweet and kind until she is not, earning her the nickname “Spitten Kitten”. Spitfire chose her name after her mother’s favorite cat who would growl when pet rather than purring. She says Spitfire is the perfect name to bring both the love she has for her mother, and her attitude on the track. The number 305 is special to her because it’s the birthday of her equally as spunky daughter, who is her biggest supporter and biggest fan.

Spitfire joined the Copper City Queens after completing the fresh meat camp in March of 2024. Spitfire currently plays as a blocker and thinks that maybe someday she will venture into jamming, although speed isn’t quite her friend yet.

Not only is Spitfire a quick learner of all things derby, she also is a lifelong learner in other ways. Spitfire has many degrees and certifications including Massage Therapy Specialist, Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine (Doctor meaning Teacher), herbalist and is 2 classes away from a Bachelors of Social Work. She would like to continue onto her Masters of Social work to work with sexual assault and domestic violence survivors.

Spitfire’s theme song is “Unstoppable” by Sia, “life isn’t always sunshine and roses, but somehow things always work out as long as you don’t give up.”

Spitfire thinks that the most rewarding part of joining roller derby is building the friendships she has with strong independent women who didn’t get to be that way from putting other women down. “Women have not always had the best treatment historically, and we don’t need to tear each other down. My Queens straighten each others’ crown without telling the world they were crooked, we need more women like that in the world.”

Come and see Spitfire’s passion on the track November 16th at the Butte Civic Center! You don’t want to miss it! ♥️👑🛼
