Thank you all for your kind words of sympathy, yes Tessa was indeed a beauty and a very sweet natured girl with it, she just adored having her tummy rubbed.

I am going to get that picture printed off and buy my mother a nice kitty frame and put it in there for her, i think she would like that.

My mother has decided against getting another cat, so she wants to give me all Tessa's belongings, her teepee house,cat cage etc etc, my kitties will indeed be appreciative of it as i will be, it is kind of nice,as it will be like a part of her is with me in my house still.

You know something there is a lot of peace knowing you did the right thing at the right time and made sure she did not suffer ,it really does comfort one, but it still hurts doesn't it?
