My father's people have the ancient wisdom that says that departed spirits return to our Creator, those who have passed and those yet to be born; those who knew us can counsel those in our future so do not be surprised when you meet another soul kitty. And it is not replacing your baby boy to offer a home to another kitty - it is a tribute to the cat you have lost. Try to think of our departed kitties now being with our very own ancestors and our future pets and descendants. I try to focus on my baby Lance's happy days, once he overcame kittenhood disease - days of love, joy, happiness and utter contentment but sometimes the heartbreak & grief invade my dreams, my thoughts. Fortunately, I receive much comfort, understanding and encouragement here at TCS.
