I don't know what to say. My poor mum. We lost 19 year old Candy last year, then baby Sunny got ill and got put to sleep, then Sandy got run over then today. Horrible. We are so upset. At 5 months old Milly fell from the top of the stairs and broke her neck and died in my mums arms. She was just like Candy and we all loved her. Dad is upset, my mum can't talk. I mean, what bad luck. We think that Candy's ghost is saying do not get another cat. 3 in one year. Mum took Milly to Epping Forest and buried her in a deep hole under a tree trunk.

Please light a candle for Milly, who had a very happy, loving life albeit short




Love you Mills xxxx

Oh, I am SO sorry to hear of your family's tragic losses. However, that is not the way I interpret it at all -- I would strongly recommend keeping all cats indoors-only, which keeps them safer; I have never heard of a cat falling down stairs, and this has got to be a tragic accident. Perhaps a barrier could be put up so that in future, this would not happen. But personally, while there are any cats at all needing loving homes, I advocate everyone who loves cats and can care for them to adopt them. My sincere sympathy and condolences to your family.

I am so sorry for your loss. Please let your parents know many people are keeping them in our prayers. Such tragedy in one year.

Aww that is so sad... RIP Milly, she was very beautiful.. i have never heard of a cat falling down the stairs... they are usually so agile. however when i saw her picture i can see how something like that happened... i am so sorry for your loss.. i dont believe this is a sign that you shouldnt get another cat. i know that 3 in one year is very very tragic, but once you feel ready, you should adopt a new cat, or maybe two.

How did she fall from the stairs?

RIP Milly
Hi Susan - we don't really know. Mum and dad were both in their bedroom up stairs and heard a thud. They went out to the landing and she was lying at the bottom of the stairs having a fit. They think she fell through the bannisters in a freak accident. It scares me because when Guinness was small (and even now) he runs in and out of the bannisters all the time. I did say to mum and dad that maybe she had a fit before she fell?

I am so sorry for your loss.
I had a puupy who rolled off the varandah at my parent's house and she landed on her nose and snapped her vertibrae in her kneck.
I just hope my tealight candle will help her on her way to the Rainbow Bridge.
My heart goes out to you and your family.
