    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.

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

    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

    Your last sentence brought tears to my eyes. Because I know EXACTLY how you feel. I wish I had my Tazmoe back too. But then I wish I had him back with his health like it was five years ago. He was fat and happy.

    You did the right thing for you, Aroara and Schroeder. He will find his furrever home. And he will be king of his own castle.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    You did every possible thing for Schroeder, but it was not meant to be for him. It happened to me years ago and even though it wasn't anyone's fault, I still feel guilty.

    Let's hope and pray that a furrever home happens for him and he can be the top cat in the household..............

    hugs to you............
