Sasha was called to a bigger responsibility this evening. He joined his beloved little brother Freddie and his wonderful, loving mama SiSi in heaven, as a champion. He was laid to rest wrapped in his white baby blanket which SiSi nursed him on, and his red furry heart was placed over his own heart, with locks of hair from his mama, Freddie, Saba, and me. He had all his catnip bees at his paws, and we left one out for Saba.

He is resting peacefully in the backyard with the big kitty rock between him and Freddie. As we lowered him into the earth he loved so much, the cold Spring wind stopped and suddenly it was warm. The sun came out and cast golden light over us, as catnip seeds were planted in his place and bulbs of narcissus were put in circle with stones for the earth, the sun, the wind, and the moon.

I know he was hanging on, staying....just for me. So the last thing I said to my Absolute Coyote-Clubbing Champion was "Lovey, you're good to go." - and he tucked his little head into my neck and said goodbye.

The windows in our house are all open tonight. We can see his spot from every room through the light of 14 white candles. I am elated that he has returned to the natural world and I have no doubt Saba will be watched over, as well as me.

What a beautiful, beautiful tribute. Your words will bring much comfort & courage to those who are facing similar dilemmas, and need to find the strength to put the needs of their furbaby first, and make the right decision (I'm thinking of those desperate cat owners who are just visiting the site, looking for answers for their beloved cats). And Sasha, Godspeed over RB, dear sweet friend - greet all our "crossed-over TCS kitties" for us. I know that when the winds stilled & the air grew warm, it was Heaven's window opening up to let your spirit in...

There was a wonderful rainbow here late this afternoon. Couldn't help but think of you. Must have been the Bridge getting ready to welcome our wonderful boy. And what a crowd of kitty friends were there to greet you, too, I'm guessing.


What a lovely tribute, E, for such a special boy.

Theres a little boy in heaven right now running to greet his mum SiSi and little brother Freddie with the biggest headbutts he can give, and his name is Sasha


This is Eddies favourite picture that she wanted up of her little boy and a gorgeous one it is




Run fast over the bridge Sasha sweetie and have fun but don't forget to keep looking down to make sure your mum, dad, Saba and Sandy are all ok

Oh this is so hard to read. Sasha has a special place in my heart and I feel the pain of his loss as if I have lost one of my own. Many tears are being shed here Eddie.

Sasha - you were one in a million and will definitely not be forgotten.

It took all my strength to open this thread this morning. I expected it, but it really hit me when I saw it


Sasha, you have been such an inspiration to all of us here at TCS. I hope you are standing proud today at the bridge as you look down and see how many lives you touched. Run and play with your mom and brother, have fun but make sure to check in on your mum down here on earth from time to time. She loves you so very much, we all do sweet boy


Eddie, sweetie, I am keeping you in my prayers. You showed such amazing courage last night and we are all admire you so much for it. We love you and are here for you whenever you need us

Alright, I can see the screen better now........

even though you know something is coming, death is such a hard thing for me to prepare for. E, you are truly a wonderful person/friend, and please know that Sasha is happily with SiSi and Freddie and is happy/pain free again.

All my prayers are with you..........
