    Today I lost my buddy

    George, I'm so sorry. Since our two cats passed on, a neighbourhood orange Tom has started dropping in on us most days - they really are a very special kind of cat aren't they? Cherish your memories and your faith.

    Snuffly has gone

    You are so right, Steffie, in everything you say. I feel now that I can at least talk about how Snuffly passed on - a few weeks ago, I couldn't even bear to think about it. When we went to bed, she seemed as lively as could be expected for a very energetic cat who had just lost her sight. We...

    my little girl is gone

    I'm so sorry. I know how very painful it is. It's two weeks tonight since I awoke to find that Snuffly had passed away in the night. And last August, we too had to make that dreadful decision when we had end Muffy's suffering and her 18-year life. She, Muffy, also used to jump on the bed and...

    Snuffly has gone

    Thank you so much for that, Stephie. I've just read Forrest's story, and I am so sorry. It reminded me so much of Snuffly - how she was sick for a while, then declined very quickly over a couple of days, and then, unbelievably, was gone. You're so right about this place: mostly I don't tell...

    Sweet Scooby

    I'm so sorry. My little Snuffly lost her fight for life last Saturday night, and I know just how you must be feeling. Thankfully Scooby was loved by you and your family for most of his short life. I know that your new kitten can't replace him, but I bet she's completely adorable in her own way.

    Snuffly has gone

    What wonderful warm posts! Thank you again! Ann, seeing how much your husband loved Max, I'm sure it can only be a matter of time before he comes around to wanting another. I'm sure that, if you love one cat, you can't help loving them all!

    Snuffly has gone

    My goodness, I can't believe how wonderful you all are! So many people in pain over their own lost ones, and yet you come here day after day to help others! Thank you a thousand times - it helps so much to know that there are folks who really understand. My thoughts are with you, and with...

    Snuffly has gone

    Thank you so much for that Jacquie. We're going to go on a trip to spend a little time with some relations overseas. When we come back, we'll decide about getting some more cats. No-one can replace Muffy and Snuffly, but there are some animal rescue centres near our home (Muffy came from one...

    Snuffly has gone

    Thank you all so much. It's extraordinary how I stumbled onto this group just a few hours before my, and Snuffly's, time of need. I can tell that most people I know, though they try to sympathise, don't really understand how beautiful and special my girls were, how painful it is to think of...

    Poor Victor

    Oh Justin, I'm so sorry. I know how you feel, because I'm hurting the same. Victor is safe now. You take care to look after yourself.

    Snuffly has gone

    Thank you so much. We have been out all day walking in the rain - a really dreary English winter day. We are home again now, and the house is so cold and empty - the first time in 16 years there has been no furry girl. I can hardly bear to think of how I found her this morning, cold and...

    Snuffly has gone

    Some of you will have seen my posts on another thread yesterday, and so will know that Snuffly was very sick. I'm afraid that she didn't make it through the night. Our house is empty now. Six months ago we had two happy, healthy cats. Now they are both gone. I can't say any more now. The...

    we had Max put to sleep today

    Thank you, Debby, for those kind words. I know what you mean about Merlin. Muffy used to insist on going out, and she would actually sit in the road! We were bags of nerves trying to watch out for her! When we next moved house, our top priority was that our new home be cat-safe! The estate...

    we had Max put to sleep today

    I only just discovered this site today, and I'm so sad reading this thread. I am so, so sorry. We had to make the same decision for Muffy six months ago. She was a rescue cat, and came to us when she was three years old. For the next fifteen years she lived with unfailing gentleness and...
