You are so right. Our animal friends are our family and their loss is felt right through the heart. I am so pleased to know your kitty lives with you now and that she gets special daddy time. That makes my heart sing. All these creatures...they have such heart.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing your story. -TamaraChickadee Gardenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00698323800314994028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-665807378090241608.post-54742945680949635322020-04-18T14:50:05.424-07:002020-04-18T14:50:05.424-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Rev.

He died the week after I went to live in South Korea to study Buddhism and be a monk. I still think of him today. It has been 20 years. Three years ago, we had a stray cat that ended up in my window well. She was freezing and starving to death. Long story short, she lives with us now. She sits with her "daddy" every night for chair time. She now sleeps with us in the bed. When God calls her home, I will be heart broken. Your gardens are beautiful. You have made for her a wonderful grave and place you can visit often to twice enjoy her by remembering Lucy and her shared activities with. With sincerest condolences and affection, Rev. David P.

Yes they follow you around the garden. Yes they sit on your lap and purr-nothing is more comforting. Life spans make our grief inevitable. But we can always offer a home to a new friend. I miss my departed and beloved kittys, but I love to welcome a new member of the family. I am glad you have peace at last. kshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10847026541797857854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-665807378090241608.post-3968744030644598232019-09-05T19:34:04.190-07:002019-09-05T19:34:04.190-07:00Thank you, Jenni.

We live on a busy street and I was never able to let Coal outside, but during his last month (he had cancer and we knew the end was near) we took him outside. I rejoiced with him/for him when he waited patiently and then caught a mouse on his last day with us. Now I am crying for all of us. xoxoGailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16194325535496408116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-665807378090241608.post-49708124104723100912019-09-05T10:53:04.274-07:002019-09-05T10:53:04.274-07:00They never really leave us.

Although I loved each one, I did have a special bond with a couple and I still feel their loss, years and years later. We can't forego that special bond because they live so much shorter lives than we do and we want to avoid the pain of losing them. I hope you can let go of more of the pain without losing the joy of having the memories.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16323262555906240701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-665807378090241608.post-20873248893803828402019-09-05T08:42:05.927-07:002019-09-05T08:42:05.927-07:00Your sweet & sad post reminded me of all of mi...Your sweet & sad post reminded me of all of mine who have gone on - Mayling, Topper, Runt Grunt, & Chin Ho Kelly.
