Those 'anniversaries' always bring back a flood of memories, pain and sadness. Luca knew love and happiness in a world that is scary and cold. Rainbow Bridge gained another sweet angel and you lost a piece of your heart. As long as you are alive that sweet cat will live on in your precious memories and I'm sure send you comfort when you need it the most through those memories and the love you both shared. It is a bond that mere death cannot break, Luca will be there for you when you think of the happy times, and will live on in that special place in your heart. I'm so sorry for what you are going through, I'll keep you both in my thoughts and prayers.

I think our beloved babies know how much they're loved and missed. When my last cat that made the cross county trip in 2012 was dying, I told her that I wouldn't moun her as much as her sister because she's not my cat, and we weren't close. When the vet announced she was gone, I lost it... tears kept flowing, and I just wanted to go cry some more. Hubby brought my nephews, one who was Stripey's 'owner' to the vet to give him closure. We took them to lunch and let them talk about her. That helped them heal, knowing that we were feeling their pain too. I expect the next time I see Stripey, she's gonna have a smug look, as to say, 'Liar, I knew you'd miss me!' I do miss her. she was a cuddle cat. I didn't have to say her name, just imply it, and she'd come running to get love!
This September marks 1 year for her--- Till we meet again Stripey, I miss you! :(

First year is the worst! I bought turkey and some gravy when it was my boy Mischief's 1 year. I let the girls pig out on the gravy, since most trigger migraines for me, but this was his favorite people food. I sat with them, and looked at some kitten pictures. Hubby was deployed, but when he called that night, he told me that he had a serving of turkey and gravy to honor Mischief's memory. I thought that was sweet. Losing our beloved fur-baby wasn't easy before the deployment orders wasn't easy on either of us. the first year without them hurts the most imho. It has been 2 years for Tiger, this December 17, 20 years for Sugar...Mischief-3 years this October, but both still hurt like they were yesterday at times. May all our kittens be at peace, knowing that they will never be forgotten!
