What a beauty boy, your Miko! I'm so sorry for your loss. But isn't it wonderful to have a vet and staff who cares enough for you and your beloved kitties to cry over their loss? My vet and tech did the same with me when we lost Little Roy 2-18-06. They've been with me for over 27 years and...

Your Stinkerbell was a beauty. Much like my deaf "Frosty" in looks. I know how hard it is to lose such a beloved baby, but it was a blessing she went quickly, in the home and with the family she loved.

My heart goes out to you for your accident, but you know the little one would never have blamed you, no matter what. A friend who does foster care unknowingly had a kitten crawl into her dryer -- it was too late when she realized he was missing, and there was nothing the ER Clinic could do. She...

I'm so sorry for your loss. FELV is rare but unfortunately still out there. I hope his mother & brother test Negative so you will be able to keep them and love them in Gateway's memory.

What a beautiful tribute to Candy! I'm sure she is happy and busy romping again with my Little Roy and all the others over the Rainbow Bridge.

What a lovely verse. Thank you for sharing with us. It's especially timely since I just lost a tiny rescue boy last weekend. He was 6 months old - and weighed less than 2 lbs. Yet he had made tremendous progress - until literally overnight he lost the use of hind legs, bladder & bowels...

Poor little baby! Thank you for ending his misery.

As the "mom" of 3 blind cats, one of which looks VERY much like your precious Mouse, I have every confidence she'll do just fine. "Angel" was our first blind girl; she too was born without eyes. She doesn't care about having other kitties for company, but my other two blind boys do. "Huey"...

Congratulations on your adoption of Simba! I'm sure he'll be a wonderful, lively addition to your family. Perhaps he will be the key to bringing Lara closer to you also, as well as providing a companion for her. I'm glad you're able to open your heart and home to another needy kitty. Simba...

You don't say how old Sitka was, but I'm sure you gave her a wonderful life. And when the time came, you gave her the gift of freedom from the pain of this life. There is no greater love, and Sitka knew that, no doubt. Let yourself be comforted by the time you had together, and your mutual love.

You did absolutely the right thing for Booker. I've lost 3 cats to kidney failure, and no matter what you do to help, once they're diagnosed, their lives are never quite right. I'm sure Booker didn't give you any warning; cats are very sly that way. He knew how much you loved him when you...

I'm so sorry for your loss of Helen, but thanks to you the last years of her life were great. I know she'll be waiting to greet you over the Rainbow Bridge.

I'm so sorry for your loss of Melody, but remember what a good life she had, thanks to you. No "goodbye" to a beloved pet ever seems like enough, so cherish the good memories you have and remember she'll be waiting for you on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge.

Susan, Definitely start by volunteering somewhere! The intricacies of starting your own rescue are incredible -- and expensive too! You need more than just your home to run a rescue, especially LOTS of individual rooms/cages/facilities for the different cats. EVERY shelter needs volunteers -...

Definitely sounds like a stress UTI. I hope you can get him to the vet soon for an exam. Once he's on medication and the proper diet, I'm sure he'll do fine. Good luck to you & Alex both!

I'm so very sorry for your loss of Nemo. It's always so very hard. But it's wonderful that you & your husband were able to open your hearts so quickly and save the life of another little needy one. I hope Lara will bond with you quickly -- or perhaps lead to you save yet another precious kitty...

Tammie, I'm so sorry for your loss of beautiful Hallie. I'm sure she was waiting to tell you her final goodbye. As you said, fortunately she never had to suffer, and you filled her life with love. She went to sleep hearing your words of love. Keep all your beautiful memories of her alive...

This was incredibly touching! Thank you for sharing with us!

No question - Toygers are beautiful cats. I suppose the "wild side" of us all would love to own one or two, but I think I'll be happy with my Bengal Boys for now

I'm fortunate enough to have TWO purebred silver Bengals, brothers but 3 litters apart. Unfortunately somehow a neurological problem got into the breeding line -- which are champion show cats -- and since the breeder refused to Sell the three with problems, I was lucky enough to get 2 of the 3...
