RIP my beautiful Ash...

[slick]

Carole: forgive me because I just couldn't look at the pictures of Ash in his little box. I opened it and quickly closed it. That's just how my Max looked and it's still too raw for me. LES I'll have to come back later.

Ash's grave looks beautiful and I know that he is happy right there where he can watch over you until you meet again.

well another day has gone by another beginning,still have that empty feeling and sick feeling in the pit of my stomach, i guess in time it will go away,it has only been a few days.

Slick, nothing to forgive my dear,for me having the pics are comforting,but i understand how you feel,i posted a nice pic of Ash before he became ill, i prefer to remember him that way, i think i will get it enlarged and put it on the wall.
Slick Ash looks really peaceful in those pics,and to me beautiful.

Slick, Max and Mooshoo and Ash are all together now,it will get easier as time heals our hearts, but for now,let us bring each other comfort .

I go out every morning and sit on the swing couch, which is right beside Ash
s grave, and i think about him,it is helpful to me to do that, he is always within eyesight for me and i like that.

Thanks again to everyone who took the time to stop by and post such wonderful, caring, kind and comforting messages,it really helps such a lot to know there are others out there who understand.

I'm so sorry about Ash. What a handsome boy.

[carole]

Yes he was a big beautiful fluffy boy,but the renal failure had ravaged his body and he was half the cat he used to be, was very sad to see.

I know you are heartbroken, but when we had Tomas PTS, from renal failure and old age, we drew comfort from the fact he was no longer suffering. He went almost exactly the same way as Ash. Lost a bunch of weight, stopped eating, just literally gave up. I drew comfort from the idea that he felt much better and was playing again. I hope you can do the same. Please know that Ash thanks you for your loving decision, as hard as it was for you to make. You are still in my thoughts and prayers!

Carole, I am so very sorry that your handsome boy, Ash has passed on.

Even though it hurts like heck to lose one of our beloved pets, we just have to be thankful of the times we had with our little furry friends and keep reminding ourselves how much richer our lives were to have them.

My heart goes out to you Carol, because I know, like others, all to well what you are going through. Everyone has their own path to healing and their own timetable for grieving.

Rest in Peace beautiful Ash and have fun up on the RB.

Yes i keep telling myself that Ash had a good life,and he probably would have passed on a lot sooner had we not adopted him, i took good care of him, infact it is not until now that he is gone i just realise how much of my time was spent looking after Ash, and i am thankful i was able to do that for him.

It is the little things that remind me of him how much he also loved mince,(think you call it hamburger over there,) we are having tortillas for dinner tonight and Ash always had his portion, he went mad on that stuff, and the chicken and cheese, i often have left over cheese, and no-one to give it to now, none of my other kitties like it, i miss those little things.,still sometimes i smile thinking about his way's,he was not a smoochie kitty, but he had his moments,everyone that ever came here really took a liking to Ash, he just had that aura about him.

Still missing my ole guy, but getting by as best i can.,got three other lovely kitties needing my love and attention.

Carole,

The picture of Ash in the box took me by total surprize. LES big time!! I just popped in to see how you were holding up.

I'm an uncontrollable water faucet as I'm SURE you can relate. You are in my thoughts and prayers, girl. I only wish you didn't live so far away, I'd call ya!!

and hugs,

Donna and fur crew

[carole]

Thanks Donna my dear friend, yes i am much the same, ok then bang in tears again, it is just the little things that remind me of him,i am a little lost without him, i spent so much of my time taking care of him,i guess as time goes on it will become easier and i will be able to smile at the reminders of him.

I am thinking of you too, for you it was such a shock, that is even harder to take, bless our two furbabies, i am sure they are together now.

I find the pics very comforting, he just looks so cute and peaceful, it was hard to actually have to bury him, i just wanted to keep him that little box forever.

Oh i so wish we lived closer too, we could be of a great deal of comfort and companionship to one another, still we are here to help each other through this difficult time, HUGS and remember here for ya any time. a ton of love .
