The little faces that keep me going ....

OMG!! What an abundance of CUTE! How do you tell Rusty and Riley apart? They look like clones! ;)

Kim, seeing all those wonderful faces brought a smile to my face and I can see how they would make you so happy as well. You are blessed that you have been chosen to care for so many of God's creatures. :)

Oh Kim (((HUGS))) I am sorry you've been feeling depressed again. I know its hard .... you already feel depressed and then get more depressed that you're depressed again. I am SO GLAD you looked down and realised the blessings and love you have around you every day. Think of them as furry angels sent to you to make sure you smile.

Looks like it would be pretty hard to be sad with all of those wonderful kitties giving you all of their love. You are very lucky to be surrounded by so many lovely little faces. Thank you for sharing the smiles.

One Of These Days I am going to have to pay a Visit to Tennessee,and bring Some Toys to Your Cats.
You have so many Truly Wonderful Comapnionsin your Clowder and its Touching that they All seem to get along so well.
The Found Cats All send a Friendly MEEEEEEEEOWWW!!!

All of those beautiful faces, they truly give you something to be thankful for! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you ALL for such kind and caring words, they truly mean so much to me! Sometimes I think I have been given more than my own share of emotions, and teardrops! :rolleyes: I guess that is God's plan for me though, so that I never stop FEELING! I don't ever want to get to the point where I have no emotion at all, but a little break from time to time would be "ok". :p

Deb: Seeing the pics of Robbie and Lizzie brought more tears (sorry, that's all I seem to have just now) :rolleyes: .... but they are tender tears, fond memories of those two precious little ones that I was blessed to love from birth. Thank you so much for loving them and continuing to let me share in their lives! ;)

Smokey the Elder: Rusty and Riley, I took in when they were little kittens. We always have called them the "twins". Even my vet called them "Pete" and "Repeat"! :D It became easy for me to tell them apart once they matured a little, but when they were small I actually had to color code them with their collars!!! They were adopted 3 years ago, and recently returned to me, as the couple had a new child who had developed severe allergies to them. I will have to start a new thread with some of their baby pics!

Jen: Be careful what you wish for!!! :eek: :D

AGAIN .... THANK YOU ALL!!!

((((HUGS))))
Kim and babies

(((Kim))), I'm sorry that you're feeling down again since you have lost April!

Good that you have all these wonderful little creatures around!! It's so heartwarming to look into their sweet and loving faces, you are truly blessed with the love of so many felines!

And you found wonderful words to decribe the love they give; very touching and so true. :)

AAawwww Kim I must admit I lost a little track with your babies and their relations but I suppose Sheldon and Sherlock are brothers and I will have a duel with Jen for them. So adorable :)

Kim it's so good to see all those faces. I have such good memories of visiting your beautiful home with so many wonderful kitties around. Your home just seemed like such a warm inviting place.

When I took Rocky and Rumor to the vet last week I told her about how you took them, their mom and brothers and sisters in and found homes for all. I also told her you had Fuzzy and she was plump too so it was genetics. :o Anyway, she was very interested and impressed with your rescue work.

He has to be one of the sweetest little faces I have ever seen. He would make it hard to have a hard day.He looks so incredibly sweet. Will you give him a huge hug for me?? ;)

Kim, you are so lucky! :)
You are constantly surrounded by CUTENESS OVERLOAD in your house! :D
Now give each and every one of those sweet kitties a big hug and kiss from me. :)

Kim I've been in your shoes too, loving and then losing special kitties. I also know what you mean by the others, with those sweet innocent dependent little faces, pulling you out of the dumps. Isn't it marvelous how they know when we hurt and tend to swarm like bees to honey? Headbumpies and noserubs help dry the tears. :) Kissies to all your beauties, and ((HUGS)) to you. ;)

All of your words are so nice! I know that I am blessed, and I try so hard not to get so down ... but hormones and illnesses tend to hit me hardest when I'm already sad for a "good" reason like April's passing!

We are ALL very blessed to have such wonderful companions and true friends as we have in our special kitties. They are definitely one of God's greatest gifts! :)

((((HUGS))))
Kim
