    Thank you all. Little Daxter was born right about the time that my Dexter was PTS. I got him 2 months after that day, and he was approximately 8 weeks old. Coincidence? I don't think so!

    I'm very sorry about the losses of Bobo and Dexter, Kim. May they RIP.

    Little baby Daxter is cute, and I'm sure he will do what he can to help you deal with the losses.

    Kim!! ((((HUGS)))) I have missed you so much! I knew something was wrong and was hoping it wasn't anything like this! OH MY GOD... I sent you a email telling you I had you on my mind so strong and tried several times to call you from the boat while I was out the last time... (I WISH they would put us up more cell towers out there!) I am so sorry for your loss! Terriably, terriably sorry...

    BUT, nothing helps like having a kitten in the house to ease the pain and Daxter is just PURRRFECT! Man! How many times have I said "when the timming is right".... things happen! No, Daxter was sent to you to help ease the pain and we all know that! What a looker he IS! He is just far to adoreable and he will turn into a fine boy cat one day and ease all your grief.. NOW.... I can't wait for the Daxter stories and pictures!!!

    Special Needs Pets just leave bigger imprints ♥ on your heart!

    Oh Kim, I am so sorry for your losses. Two in one day, that had to be heartbreaking. (((hugs))) to you and your family.

    Congratulations on Baby Daxter! He sure is a cutie pie! I am sure he is full of fun and is very mischievious.

    Keep sending those pictures! How are the rest of your furbabies?

    RIP sweet Tabitha, my heart kitty. You are loved and missed every day. 1988 - 2010

    Kim, I am so sorry for the loss of Bobo and Dexter. At least you can take solace in that they are not in pain and you did the best for them!

    I must say, little Daxter baby is just a cutie pie!

    I'm so sorry that Bobo and Dexter had to leave you. How very difficult it had to have been to let them go, even knowing that there was no other choice. RIP, handsome boys.

    And welcome to adorable little Daxter. He's just delightful!

    Kim I hope you know that you did the right thing and that
    Bobo and Dexter are now very happy at the rainbow bridge with no problems, just healthy happy bodies playing with all the other kitties that are waiting for their loved ones someday.

    And I don't think it was coincidence that little Daxter was born about the time that Dexter was put to sleep, I think you were meant to have this beautiful guy and maybe he has a little bit of Dexter in him He is a beautiful looking kitty!

    I will love you forever Bobo

    I'm so very sorry to hear about Dexter & Bobo; (((hugs))) to you and may they play together at the RB. I know you are incredibly sad, but maybe your new addition will bring a smile to your face.

    Daxter is adorable! I hope he brings you lots of joy and you will be able to remember your babies with a lighter heart.

    I'm so sorry to read this Kim, but happy for little Daxter. Hang in there girl!
    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

    This has been a sad spring for kitties.. RIP Dexter and Bobo. Play hard at the Bridge, and be happy and healthy again.

    I'm so glad you found Daxter! He is a cutie pie!

    Oh Kim, you've suffered so many losses. I know losing Dexter was especially hard and little Bobo too. I'm so sorry.

    For a more positive note, Lil' Dax is adorable and yes, he looks very much like Ripley did at that age. For your sake I hope the resemblence ends at that! Ripley was full of spit and vinegar and about killed me.

    Congrats on your newest baby!!!!

    Thank you for all the nice words. I was very resistant to taking on another cat ... especially a baby, so I do believe that Daxter came into my life for a purrpose!

    Kim, I'm so sorry to hear that both Bobo and Dexter have gone to the Rainbow Bridge.
    Daxter is adorable and I hope he helps you heal and brings happiness back into your life after the loss of two of your furkids.
    I'm sending hugs your way and Samantha sends headbumpies and purrs to you.
    RIP sweet Samantha

    So sorry to hear about Bobo and Dexter. Dexter was always one of my favorites with his tipped ear.
