    Same here! He is so handsome, I'm sure he will find a home as an only kitty.

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!

    I'm sorry Schroeder didn't work out. I hope he finds a home where he is the only cat. You've done all you could.

    Good Luck Schroeder.

    I agree with you katladyd and cassiesmom. If I didn't have any other cats, I would keep him too. I just talked with the foster mom from the cat rescue. Her dad lives in my town, so she is going to come visit him tomorrow. We're going to meet around 3 for her to take him. This is very sad. It was 6 weeks ago today that I lost Morgan. I never dreamed that I would get so attached to Schroeder. I am going to be checking petfinder every day to see if he has a home and am going to be so sad to see him back on there. I'm going to be tempted to drive to Nashville and look at him in Petsmart too. I know that probably wouldn't be good for me or for him. I have all of his stuff that I know he likes all together to go with him. I want him to get a happy ending.

    Time helps the sadness subside, but the memories remain forever.

    Could her dad take Schroeder?

    Prayers and hugs for you both. Bless you for loving him so much and doing all you did for him.

    No, her dad can't take Schroeder. I'm meeting her after she visits with her dad because her step-mother is allergic to cats.

    I just said my good-byes to my boy Schroeder. I met the lady from the cat rescue in town. The house is lonely again. Although, Aroara is here with me. She keeps walking around hissing. This is the first time in a month that the door to my bedroom has been open when she has been inside. I'm sure she smells his scent in there. I hope she'll come in to sleep with me tonight. I am very sad, but also a little relieved. It was a lot of work having him here and making sure everyone was alright and separated. Maybe I'll just take a little time to relax before making any other kitty decisions. I might attempt to get one or two of the outside kitties to be more comfortable coming inside. If only I could have my Morgan back, all would be right in my house.

    I'm so sorry that things didn't work out with Schroeder. Some kitties truly are meant to be only cats. I'm sure it was very hard to say good bye, but the right home will come along for him.

    And I know how you feel about wishing Morgan were there. It's so hard to adjust to the absence of a beloved kitty.

    It's tough, I know, but as you say, you're also a little relieved. When you have that kind of chaos in the house, your world gets turned upside down. Schroeder will soon be in his new permanent home. And your last sentence is heartwrenching. We all feel that pain at some time in our lives. It's as though there's a hole in your heart and in your world. Life will soon calm down and get back to normal again. Keep the faythe.
    Blessings,
    Mary
