Oh yes they will always be. Sophie took part od my heart when she died. She was my heart. But i love cats so i did not not want to have one.. Roxy is so cute and a lot of fun to have her. First kitten i have had since Sparky. All others were adult cats.
What a beautiful pair! It just goes to show they are NEVER forgotten, they live on in our hearts. It's something that one cat out of many can be our 'soul' mate. They are the ones that tear our soul apart when we lose them. It doesn't even have to be a cat we've had for many years, they worm their ways into our hearts in a very short time. RIP April and Sparky, you were well loved!
Oh yes so true. April and Sparky were wonderful cats. I had Sophie for 11 yrs. Got her when she was 7 or even older ( Vet thought she was 7 but who knows ) and she owned my heart and she gave me hers. My heart was broken when she died and i cried all the way to the Vet and all the way home. She was so weak that she never moved there and went so fast but peacefully. We brought her home to bury her in our yard. I wanted her near us. My husband put a plaque i sent for on a stone and i put a girl on a bench with a bird to watch over her so she is not alone. She had a birdie friend who used to come to the window every day to see her. It was really something.I don't think i will ever get over her loss.Her loss is as great to me as the loss of my family.. Most people would not understand that but the love a cat or dog gives us is so authentic with no make believes or falsehoods. They are our family too.
