Grasshopper over the Rainbow

I am sorry to hear this. Rest in Peace Grasshopper, have fun at the Bridge!


Nancy, Felicia and Beau

Yes, tears are flowing (second time today) - but tears are a good thing.

Beautiful Grasshopper, I have asked Sugar and Patches and Magic to be sure to greet you and show you around the Rainbow Bridge.

Kohala and Dadcat, please accept my sincere condolences - these losses are just so difficult.

Kohala, I experienced the same thing. When my Dad passed away I had plenty of tears - but not the same amount of tears as I shed over the loss of Sugar and Magic.

When they are a part of you for so many years - it is indeed like the loss of a child - and they are our kids.

Dear Kohala, my heart feels like it's being torn to shreds this sad day, hearing of the passing of two beloved Pet Talk kitties:(:(:( After reading of the passing of your beloved Grasshopper, I can hardly type for the tears. Your beautiful Grasshopper left this earth so lovingly and with such gentleness. How blessed you both were to have known the love of such a precious fursoul these many years. And how blessed was Grasshopper to have had the loving devotion of two such special humans. All my love and sympathies to you both. Grasshopper, I'll bet you're sending down your love to your mommy and daddy this very moment from the Rainbow Bridge. Wait for them there patiently, sweet Grasshopper. {{{HUGS}}}} Sandra, Mr. B and Oliver

I am so sorry to hear that Grasshopper has left this world.:(
She lived a long time with people who adored her & now miss
her sweet presence. Grasshopper has earned her rest over
Rainbow Bridge in a place of eternal sunshine. Be happy over
the bridge sweet baby.

Kohala, I am so sorry to hear that sweet, beautiful Grasshopper is gone.:(
She was one of my favorite Pet Talk Tuxedo cats.
I know she had a long, happy life with you and Dadcat.
May she Rest in Peace.:(
(Hugs to you from me and Samantha)

Oh no. :(

I'm so sorry Kohala.
I bet Grasshopper is having fun at the bridge with Bassett waiting for you and Naomi.

I can't believe it - Grasshopper R.I.P. Dear furgirl, so loved and adored by the best Meowmie and Daddy a girl could ever have had.
Kohala I'm so glad you were with her - I know it's difficult to do, but goodness we owe our furries this don't we? They give us so much joy and love it's the least we can do for them.
I know you're still raw and hurting - gradually the hurt lessens - but the memories never fade.

This is such a sad time for Pet Talk - two of our special girls have gone to the Bridge within days of each other.

Ko and Dadcat,
My deepest sympathies on the passing of Grasshopper, one of my favorite tuxies. Ko, you are a strong, brave woman, and gave Grasshopper the spirit to go on to the RB with love and conviction in a hooman's compassion. My heart still breaks for you, even though I know it was the 'right' thing to do. Godspeed.
Hugs,
Johanna

I'm so sorry for your loss. rest in peace Grasshopper.

I am so saddened to read about Grasshopper. Her spirit will be with us on PT forever. May she experience health and joy at the RB.

Please know that you were very loved, Grasshopper and will be missed deeply.

My deepest condolances to you and DadCat

Cheryl

Bless you for giving Grasshopper one final act of love, and being with her when she passed, to comfort her. I am crying as I type this, after reading your touching post.

Play well at the Rainbow Bridge Grasshopper. You are healthy and free from pain now, precious one!

I don't know what more to say than what has already been said about such a sweet kitty and such a deep and enduring relationship. Sometimes we think that they simply must go on forever because we need them to. Every time one of our PT kids passes to the RB it brings me back to the grief and sadness of the time and day when my own have traveled on. You will never forget the day nor the feelings associated with it....never, ever.

The hard part can be getting through the grief and back to the comfort remembering the times you had together. I hope that day comes soon. I hope too that you will be one of those blessed with a sighting (albeit ever so fleeting) of her little soul as she returns to check on you and let you know, she's okay now.

I'm sorry I saw this so late. Thank you for doing the right thing for Grasshopper; it sounded like she was ready to "work the room" at the Rainbow Bridge.

God bless you Kohala, Dadcat and Grasshopper the newest angel kitty.

Of course we all remember Grasshopper , and wish her well, in Cat Heaven, where Grassshopper will be The Perfect Angel!
And she will be part of the Pet Angel Army and make notes of places that you can visit when you are reunited in Paradise.
One Fine Day.

kohala, with tears in my eyes I've read about Grasshopper's passing... A friend who has been with you for so long leaves a lot of empty space.

But she was blessed with a long life full of friendship and love, and now that her body was fading, you helped her to ease her pain and let her pass. She must have been about my RB Katz's age. She was also born in 1986 and I had to let her go 4 years ago. I'm still missing her, but the grief will change with the passing of time.

The love and the memory remains!

R.I.P. Grasshopper,

Kirsten

I am so, so sorry to hear of Grasshopper's passing. My heart goes out to you.
Rest in Peace sweetie and have fun on RB.

I am so sorry for your loss. Grasshopper was a very special kitty, one of the beloved and gracious seniors at Pet Talk. Thanks for letting her go when her time came.

Your description gave me hope I will be able to do that step whenever it's the time.

I'm so sorry I'm so late in seeing this. :(

I'm sorry Kohala and Dadcat. :( :( :( I know how much she meant to you both. She was such a sweet, wonderful kitty. She will indeed be missed.

:(

As usual, I am way late. I'm sorry I didn't see this sooner, and even more sorry for your loss. I'm glad Grasshopper had such a peaceful passing and she is now young and happy again at the bridge. RIP dear girl.

I'm not sure how I missed this either!!! :rolleyes:
I am so very sorry for your loss of precious Grasshopper.
Having just gone through the process of PTS my PeeWee, I can certainly relate to what you experienced. Thank you for letting your precious girl go before she suffered any more!

((((HUGS)))

Oh, I am so sorry to hear this! I missed this thread! Grasshopper was one of my favorite kitties - one of the first I noticed here on PT!
Let her rest in peace!

Long time no post. After two years and four months, I am letting go but never forgetting my beloved Grasshopper. Dadcat convinced me it was time to see who wanted and/or needed us. And I did. Thanks for the beautiful messages - this is the first time in almost two years i've rerread them.
Now to move on.
I'll introduce my new "boss-cat" in another more appropriate thread. I've missed you all, and missed posting. Nice to be home.

Oh, Kohala...how often I think of you and of Grasshopper. Purrs to you from all at Cat Happy. Keep those warm, furry memories and do share your new furrbaby - I'll add him/her to my site if that's ok! Bless you!

I am still fostering - have two sweethearts right now that need homes - if you know of anyone, please share their page. www.cathappy.com/Fosterkits.htm

Again, purrs and hugs - really glad to see you post!

Welcome back Kohala and congratulations :D I can hardly wait to see the lucky kitty baby that adopted you and CatDad.

2+ years!! you certainly did better than we did - it's taken almost four but finally this year we caved - actually it wasn't our decision - our little girl literally walked into our lives and stayed :) We love her completely!

It feels so great to have a furbaby again - I hope the same is happening for you. And I'm sure Grasshopper had a lot to do with it ;)

Looking forward to your news :)

Kohala! It's so great to hear from you again. *hugs* How sweet of you to open your home to another furry friend. Grasshopper is missed but I'm sure she approves. :)

Oh Kohala! It is good to hear from you again!

How wonderful that you are going to open your heart to another LUCKY kitty!!

Can't wait to meet it !!!

So sorry to hear of Grasshopper's passing, but sounds like you did the right thing.

Play hard at the bridge, Grasshopper, you will be missed.

((((Hugs))))

Willie :(
