Mintzie Soares was born on July 2, 2006, and moved on to her next life, surrounded by her family on December 18, 2022, in Seekonk, Massachusets. Mintzie, or Mintz Pie/ Big Mintz, was born in her human sibling's closet in New Port Richey, Florida, and has brought immense joy and happiness through all the good and hard times. Mintzie was a constant for 17 years in our family as she witnessed us move to three states and watched the many milestones of her human siblings. In turn, we saw her grow from a tiny, fury Kitten to the dominant "take-no-nonsense" from others in her adult years. Mintzie was/ is the Queen of the Animal Kingdom, and a queen is always remembered.

We will never forget your sunbathing, kitty cuddles, or pounding footsteps. We hope you eat your favorite Sheba paté and see your Mom, Cheese, sisters, Mia, and raven, in animal heaven. Mintzie is survived by her human family, Melissa Soares, Angelo Delgreco, Ty Harriel, Kiana Harriel, and Maria Soares. We love you, Big Mintz. *MEWR*
