My dear Phred: I read this thread earlier today at work but my eyes leaked so much that I could not respond. Even now I'm struggling for the right words.
I can only imagine the pain you must be in right now after the loss of Bowser and now Boots Da Kat. The one thing you can count on is that they both knew how much you loved them. That type of unconditional love is wonderful but it can also pierce a hole right through your heart. Please know that we all feel the pain that you carry and we cry the tears that you shed.
It's not God's fault and it's not your fault. His time here on earth was up and he was probably needed at the RB for some very special task that only Boots could carry out.
When you sleep tonight, listen very carefully for that special purr in your ear to say "It's OK Daddy. I'm doing just fine and have my youthful body back again."
Big {{{hugs}}} Phred
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!
