That’s too bad about their beautiful fur going missing. It may turn up one day- but even if it doesn’t, the memories and love are the most important things and those can never be lost.
Snuggles was the first furry family member in our family to be cremated- our family has moved twice since I...
I just thought I would give everyone a little update and show you how the necklace turned out. I truly treasure it. The ashes are actually cast inside of the metal, so they are permanently encased and there is no chance of accidentally loosing any of Snuggles’ precious cremains. The lady who...
Thank you so much to everyone for your wisdom and condolences. Reading your posts warms my heart. Snuggles’ cremains came home on Friday, which was so fitting, as Friday was exactly 20 years from the date we first met. It may sound odd, but I have so much peace now that the remains of her...

Snuggles was an avid foodie for her whole life. She enjoyed eating things that were offered to her... as well as pilfering things she shouldn’t have. The Christmas I was 5, I made a delicious batch of sugar cookies to leave for Santa. I hung my stocking and went to bed. But like most...
Thank you for the advice. I do think I’m going to follow my heart and get the necklace made, as I truly feel like it is the right choice, at least for me and Snuggles. I know her body is just that- only a form that she resided in for the 20 years she was with me on Earth. What makes her...
My dear 20 year old Snuggles passed away yesterday and I am broken-hearted. I decided 4 or 5 years ago, when her time came, cremation would be the best option. I even talked to Snuggles about it, and I truly believe it’s what she wanted so she can always stay close to me.
I live with my...
Thank you, everyone, for your condolences. Reading your messages has warmed my heart and brought a smile to my face through all the tears. I have found my other girls to be a big source of comfort since she passed. It is extremely obvious that they are grieving the loss of their leader and...
My best friend, baby, and sibling passed away in my arms yesterday. I am so heartbroken. In a different thread it was suggested I tell her story here, and I think it might be healing for me to do so, as her story is an incredible one.
A little background - I am an only child. I was nuts...
I thought I would give you all a further update on Snuggles. I am devestated. She passed away early this morning. I consider myself very blessed that I was at her side to comfort her until the end. It still doesn’t feel real, and my heart is broken. It was just her time, and I guess her...
Lol- I bet that was probably it! :lol: She’s still doing great! One tiny little dribble outside the box this morning when I got up, but the rest was in the box! :yess: It’s like she started to pee outside and then thought “wait, nope, I’m supposed to pee IN the box!”
Update on the Snuggles Saga! After dinner tonight, she waltzed right over to the box, climbed in, and PEED IN THE BOX!!!!! I don’t think I have ever been so excited about pee- I’m a proud kitty mama! She got so many cuddles and tons of praise of course. So I’m hoping it was just a temporary...
Thank you so much for all your advice! The washing machine drain pan is a great idea! We have a little plastic litter mat that has the grooves in it (one of the ones that’s supposed to get the litter off their feet) and since that’s what she pees on, it is mostly contained in the tray...
Hi there! I’m needing some advice about my “super senior” baby and our recent litter box troubles. Snuggles is 20 years old and in remarkable health for her age. She does have cataracts, so she doesn’t see too well, and we’ve decided at her age having surgery to reduce or remove the cataracts...
