Goodbye Puff

She was gone when I got home last night, although I suspect she had just left. It is not entirely unexpected. She was pushing 20 years old, but right up to Wednesday night, she was trying to steal my dinner. I am glad I shared that bit of chicken with her!

She arrived almost four years ago after her owner had to go into a nursing home. She outlived him and I sincerely hope they've been reunited. They would be delighted to be together again. I hope he knows I took the best care of her that I could and that I loved her too.

She was a quite a character...a few pounds of squwacking attitude who gave a concussion inducing headbonk. It must have been quite a shock to come here after being an only pet for 15 years, but she adjusted and made herself at home.

I will miss her. I'm not sure I remember how to eat dinner by myself! Good-bye, Puff. Thanks for letting us share the last years of your life. It was a privilege.

Dear Puff girl, may you have always fresh chicken at Rainbow Bridge with your owner. You had a wonderful life with two caring humans and your passing was peaceful and without pain.

What a beautiful girl. I am so sorry for your loss.

Rest in peace, beloved kitty. :love::love::love::love::love::love::love::love:

I'm sure Puff and her former owner are reunited, sharing head bumps and waiting for the day that you join them too.

Awww, sorry for your loss, Glacier, but at least you can take comfort in picturing their head-bonking reunion.

I'm so sorry for your loss of Puff. :( She looks like a sweet girl. Be comforted that she had a long and happy life. :) Now she is reunited with her former human and surely giving headbumpies.

Rest in peace, Puff! :love:

Awww, I'm sorry about your loss of Puff. :(

RIP, Puff, and Godspeed to the Bridge. Peace to your family.

Thank you so much for giving her the love you did after her human had to go without her. Now they have reunited and she is telling her human all about how wonderful you treated her.. I hope Boo tells Mama all the things I have taught her in the time she has been with me and most of all, that she remembers the love I have given her.. Puff will tell her human all about the love she had from you and what she has learned from you.... THAT'S what counts! the :love:..

I am sure her and her previous owner are reunited. She is giving headbumps to them right now.
She was a very lucky girl to finish out her time with you. Even if she had to share you.

RIP Puff

So sorry for your loss. So glad you and she had shared one last chicken dinner before she had to leave. Puff, I hope your reunion was fabulous.:love:

I am so sorry that Puff is gone, but I am also happy! Puff and her first owner are now reunited and isn't that what we all want when we go? I am sure the two of them are having One Fine Day!!!:love:

Oh my doG, another loss for you Glacier!!! My heart aches and goes out to you. RIP dear Puff!! :(:(

Dear sweet Puff~~~~~~~

You were such a lucky kitty to have 2 caregiver families in your life, that both loved you dearly. I'm sure that you have been reunited with your first love, and are telling him all about your 2nd family, and how well loved and cared for that you were there too.

RIP pretty girl, and don't forget to check in with your family that you left behind, and let them know that all is well, and you will see them again one day, too.

{{{hugs}}} to you Glacier. You have had a lot of sadness to deal with lately, and I'm praying that you will now be granted peace.

RIP Sweet Puff. Glacier, I'm sorry for your loss. :love:

Precious little Puff:love: Rest in peace sweet one.

Thank you Tamara for giving this little one the dignity and love she so deserved.

Hugs to you and your family - it's been a rough ride these past weeks:love:

Tamara, I am sorry you are again coping with a loss. It is never easy.

And yet, it IS different, each and every time. Sweet Puff was fortunate to have her final years with you. And it is clear from this beautiful tribute you have written, that she left her mark on your heart. She has helped to make you who you are, from here on.

That was some head bumpy reunion at RB! :D

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss.:( I'm glad that you were able to take her in and care for her when her former owner died. Now I'm sure that they've been reunited again. RIP sweet Puff.:( Please take care. (((HUGS)))

Tamara, Puff spent the last years of her life in comfort and surrounded by love. She was so fortunate to have found you. And such a pretty girl she was, too; her advanced age did not diminish her beauty. RIP, pretty Puff girl and peace to you, Tamara.

I'm very sorry for your loss of Puff.:(

What a Lucky Cat you are Puff, to have a Family take you in at 16.
You are such a Great Little Bundle of Fur, and we know that your Pawpie
will there be to see you again, and that you will now be Awesome Angels and travel all over the world.
You two are reunited in love.
It is your One Fine Day.:love:

Rest in peace, dear Puff. Play hard at the Bridge.


Hugs, Tamara.

If anyone has to have a second forever home, Puff sure hit the lottery in yours. She was a beauty, and will be both sorely missed and happily reunited at once. May the four years of memories bring you comfort. Blessings to your household.

I am so sorry. :(

Goodbye Puff. Happy days ahead at the bridge.

I love Puff. I hope you are coping well. How tragic and what a loss, I am so sorry for the loved ones Puff has left behind! I've been there and it hurts like a bitch!!! I always get another cat as soon as possible if you have no others. another will never take Puff's place but will REALLY help you move on and this is simply a suggestion. God bless you :love::love::love::love::love:

Thanks everyone. It's been a rough few months around here; I'm hoping this is our last loss for awhile. My heart needs some time to heal!

mon, I have other cats, in fact more cats than I am legally allowed to have where I live. I can't legally get another cat until I'm down to 3, which hopefully will be a very long time!
