Freckles 1990 - March 12, 2007

[Freckles]

Freckles was assisted to the Rainbow Bridge today March 12th after a long illness.

Freckles “gotcha” date was April 18, 1993 from the Oregon Humane Society. She was estimated to be three years old. I think I picked the prettiest cat there!

Freckles was always by the door when I came home from work, meowing and telling me her day’s activities. She was a friendly cat welcoming who ever came to the house.http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7d726b3127ccebabe70677ab000000035108EbMXDRs5aW


She was COTD (http://catoftheday.com/archive/2000/December/20.html) Dec. 20, 2000.

About 2001 she started having chronic stomach issues and later renal failure. She has been continually treated with special foods and medications. The vet thinks Freckles Predicament (http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=101366) exacerbated the situation - made it worse.

Her weight for years was about 10 lbs, and the last couple months declining to 8.2 at the last because she had no interest in food .

She was a important part of my life for 13 years, and I’ll miss her.http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7d726b3127ccebabe7da4bbdd00000036108EbMXDRs5aW


Thanks, Frecks

Oh my, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Freckles went to the RB knowing that she was loved! I can only imagine the pain you are feeling over your loss.

Godspeed to the RB Freckles, and play hard. You will be greeted by many other PT kitties, and they will show you around!

RIP sweet one, RIP.

Dear, sweet Freckles, rest in peace. Now that you're up there at the Rainbow Bridge, got find Lucas - he's a black, fluffy guy, and he's been there for a while so will know all the good spots, okay?

Freckles, patchwork fluffy girl
Prettiest calico in momma's whole world
So many years you blessed or lives
But even good cats don't live forever,
And time does fly
So spread your colors and warmth up at the Rainbow Bridge
And share you love with all, you've still got so much to give.

Hello, MOM?

HI, Mom ~ it's ME, Freckles!

Just wanted to let you know I've arrived up here onna Bridge ... all safe and sound -
if not a bit *frazzled*! ... WHAT a Ride!

You haven't lived, or died, till you ride with Tubby & Peanut on the Silver Klowd Express!
They SAID God was along, as Chief Pilot - but I never saw Him ... and He sure wasn't
paying much attention to how we were flying! I think He was <munchin cookies>
that the GranMoms were baking in the galley!

Tubby "claimed" he knew where we were going - he even had a list of Departed Bridge Angle
friends and relatives ... with GPS coordinates ...
I think we were just <buzzing> every house on the block!

We almost got <STUCK> in the Rollin Howze out West when we <zipped> in the window
and Miz Debbie closed the front door! http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/eek.gif

Did you feel the *draft* when we visited our house, Mom?
We tried not to <scare> you ... but Peanut said it was important that you
knew we were there.

THANKS for the Good Tymes & Momories, Mom!
I'll have a lot of good Hoomin Tails to share at Brag & Tell tonight.
And don't furget - I'm <saving> you a spot here at the Bridge ... don't be too long joining me.

Forever Yours,
/s/ Freckles

My condolences...pain is the risk of loving, and we all take that risk again and again...HUGS to you!

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

I am shocked and saddened by the new of Freckles' passing. I had no idea she hasn't been well. I always thought she was one of the many "soul sisters" Peanut had here on PT so I'm happy she is finally able to meet her "soul sister," but so saddened that she won't be here to keep you company, Joan.

RIP sweet Freckles. You will be dearly missed. :(

[Kirsten]

I'm very sad to read about Freckles' passing. She was one of the first kitties I "met" here at Pet Talk, back in 2000.

I know she was blessed with a very long life, but I had no idea she wasn't well. Now she can play with Peanut and all the other ones who have gone before.
