My sister's cat Pandalin was euthanized just a couple of days ago. A handsome black and white tuxedo cat, he came to her as a kitten off the streets of Jerusalem 10 years ago. I'd put something in the Cat Health forum, and told her of this, and how many people had looked at it and about the responses. Told her how (and why) the thread had been locked. And mentioned the Rainbow Bridge. Here is her response:
"I am touched by your having placed Pandalin's story on the cat health section of the cat forums and greatly appreciate the responses, support and prayers of some of the readers. I had not known before about the rainbow bridge and did have tears in my eyes while reading it. . . . . I am glad to know that thanks to your making the connection, this web of support was woven. That's enough for me. I'll be getting back to you on this, (she'll write something for me to post) I hope before Thanksgiving."
I want to thank all of you for your kind wishes, good thoughts, and prayers for this beloved cat and for my sister.
