Leonardo is now at the Bridge

**Catty1** · 06-17-2009, 10:52 AM

I am so, so sorry.

Chester and Grandma will also notice poor Leonardo is gone. I hope the three of you can share some hugs.

Knowing you did the right thing for Leonardo does nothing to help the hurt.

We PTrs will "take this" with you...we'll do whatever we can for you.

ETA: Leonardo's 18th birthday pic in 2008

A couple more of Leonardo - found at the age of 10 days and given a long and wonderful life by MOFF:

Leo at 16, needing lots of naps (and having an adorable face to accompany them!)

Leonardo the ET!

And finally - "kissy, kissy, kissy!"

Bless you for having the strength and

to do what was best for Leonardo ...

He's now free of pain and enjoying a romp at The Bridge.
I''ll bet Boots da Kat has found him and they're Budddies already.

Oh dear Connie, I'm so sorry about Leonardo

It is so terrible to make a decision like that but in this case it was the best for him. I know it hurts so bad, but I pray with all my heart that Our Lord will comfort you.

Now Leonardo is not in pain, he's running and playing hard, watching over you.

RIP Leonardo.

I'm so sorry to hear this.

He had a wonderful loving home with you for many years and I'm sure you'll see each other again some day. Now he's painfree and most likely running around and playing up at the Bridge. RIP Leonardo.

Please take care. (((HUGS)))

Dang it, I can't type...LES big time......

See ya at the bridge, little one.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Leo looks like a very sweet kitty. May he rest in peace. My Annie I'm sure will be there to comfort him.

My prays are with you.

"I'm so sorry" seems so little to say at a time like this, but it is from the heart that I say it. Major LES after reading Karen's poem to dear Leonardo. I will light a candle for both of you. Your boy is at peace - may you find peace also.

Aw, my sweet Leonardo, it has been one long long year ago tomorrow that I gave you your final kiss and hug and sent you to the Rainbow Bridge. I miss you so much I can hardly stand it at times. Everyday that passes though brings the day we will be together again that much closer.

Though I have new kitties to love, you will always be my

kitty. Please tell Luke I miss him so very much too and Leroy and all my babies there. I hope you are all getting the hugs, cuddles and kisses I ask for you to get every day.

Poor Chester went from being one of three boy cats with one sister to being the ONLY boy cat with Three sisters. He misses you a lot too. He has two new little brothers now to sort of help even out the numbers. He is not friends with them yet. I doubt he will ever be as close to them as he was to you and Luke but maybe they will be friends someday.

Just wanted to remind you how very much you are loved and missed.

I'm so sorry about your Leonardo

...It was two years ago on Monday that we had to say goodbye to one of our beloved kitties, Billy...I know just how you are feeling...Time does help, although I still think about and miss him every single day...Even though it's been two years, I still have trouble thinking or talking about him without tearing up...These wonderful animals leave a huge imprint on our lives and on our hearts don't they? Though they are not here with us physically, there are always with us in spirit, and we will see them again one day...Just know that your Leonardo knows how much he is loved and missed and that he will love you always.

I am so sorry, Donna, on the occasion of this sad anniversary. You gave Leonardo the most wonderful life, and he is with you always.

Love from Pat and cats
