Laila - Oh Where is Laila

Heidi, thank you so much!

I'll never forget Laila's first few days with me, (the first 2 months actually), but it was sooo strange to read about it again. Not only did it bring back memories, it brought back that feeling of helplessness and the emotional turmoil I went through. We all went through! You guys were with me the entire time and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I remember being overwhelmed by all the support I received from you guys. I admit, i got teary-eyed reading it again.

Susan! It's great to hear from you. I remember the first poopy dance too. It was the first time I really laughed during those days.

Thank you Yosemite. I'm so happy to see the gang forming again. Don't worry, we're gonna hang around this time. You guys were like a family to us and I'll never forget that.

Here's another pic of Laila with her favorite toys. Her first toys from day one. Her brother and sister she used to cuddle with when she was little.

Since Laila's thread got lost during the crash, I'll post some of those pics too. Believe it or not, she actually brings these two to bed with us. When I go to bed, she carries them from her basket to my bed. Mostly the white teddy bear, but sometimes both. She's become a weird cat but I'll get into that in my next post.

Here are the pics:

Don't worry, Sam! We're still here.

Oh my gosh!!! Welcome back Julie & Laila!!! I literally gasped when I saw this thread!

First off, I'm so sorry that you've been through so much. I'm so sorry about your breakup and financial troubles. Most of all, though, I'm sorry about Mila and Ally. I remember well the pictures of Laila and Mila (or was that your other dog...you had two?). She was such a sweet dog. I also remember beautiful Ally. She was a gorgeous girl with a tortie body with white paws, yes?

I can't believe how big Laila is! You can tell by the look in her eyes that she is still as spunky as ever! How could she not be happy and healthy after the care she received from you, and the "please poop!" vibes she received from so many people here! It is so wonderful to see pictures of her again, and I hope you're going to be a frequent presence here!

On another note, is anyone else having trouble reading the old thread? Page one works okay, but all the other pages go to another thread, each one the same as the last. Or is it just me? It could be me.

there's our sweet little lassie!

Awwww Julie........there's our little girl! I'm so glad your back......you belong with us..........

If you're trying to read the archived thread, don't use the normal navigation links to go to the next page. (I know, hard habit to break I made the pages and I still had to think to not automatically click them!)

Found them Heidi!, thank you

I couldn't see any of my posts but got so excited again when the poop dance was on page 5

Thanks Kelly! Great to see you too!

You're right about Ally. She had one black paw, one white, and the other two were black with white tips. She had such beautiful markings. Here's she is:



And here's one of the few pictures I have of her and Laila together. Don't know if you guys remember, but I couldn't keep them together until Laila was big enough for her shots. Shortly after that I broke up with my ex and left. Ally is the only cat Laila has ever been with.



Yes I had two dogs. Luka and Mila! Mila was the one who was caring for Laila and following her everywhere. she was like a surrogate mother. She drove poor Laila crazy licking her all the time. Luka was the big golden retriever who was scared of Laila and would run away when Laila would try to play with him. Here they are:

Mila & Laila. Look at Laila's face!







Luka & Laila





My poor babies! I miss them so much!

Susan, you remember!!!! I love that boot!!! It was too big to take with me so I had to leave it in croatia.
I don't have them on the pc yet. I'll look for the cd and post them for you.

Oh gosh, I remember almost all of those pics!

You know, even though there were hundreds of threads lost on the crash, there are really only two that I miss...Laila's and Penguin's. And thankfully, both of these amazing kitties' caretakers have come back!

Julie, you just don't know how many smiles you've spread by sharing these pictures of that amazing and beautiful kitten, and now pics of her all grown up and pretty as ever.

Yeah, I thought I remembered someone posting to the Laila thread from her honeymoon...

That was you, wasn't it?

Oh my gosh! That's right, the honeymoon post! I forgot about that.

Thank you, Danielle! Jasmine is such a beautiful baby!!! Gorgeous!!!

Susie, they would be absolutely adorable. Hijacking! No way! Thank you for sharing his pic with me. I love the black spot on his nose.

I got them Susan! Enjoy!

Aww....I remember those too! It's strange how much comes back to you just by seeing a picture, how much you start to remember.
