Hi,

I just wanted to take this chance to thank everyone who expressed their
sympathy, wrote comforting words & shared their thoughts & experiences
of RB kitties. It has been a great comfort to me & has helped so much to
not feel so alone at such a sad time. I appreciate it more than I can say.

Thanks so much,
Liz

Liz, I'm so sorry about Punky. I've had many cats and it never gets any easier to let them go on without us. Punky was so very blessed to have you as his owner. You gave each other joy and love. You will see him again as I believe we will all see our blessed furbabies! Much love and comfort, Kris

Just when you think it's over.

Punky loved chedder cheese. I sometimes have the cheese cubes & crackers
as a snack in the evenings.Punky cold be in the basement,yet hear when I
opened the package of cheese cubes, and come running to get his piece.
He would either eat it on the spot, or bat it around like a toy. Either way,
he loved them.

The other day I was cleaning dust from behind the stairwell when I found
a old,stale cheese cube sitting there on the floor. I knew where it had come
from. My heart sank in my chest. I didn't want to throw it away, but I did.

I miss you Punky.

I know how you felt when you found the cheese. You look at it with some wonderment - like it would still have a part of his soul in it because he had played with it.

But then the tears come and the pain takes over and you have to turn away - the loss is too fresh.

I can relate and sympathize, Liz. Boo didn't have a favorite toy or anything but just sitting here typing now w/o him on my lap is so sad. I feel as though Boo was snatched from me, stolen even. It does get better w/time but right now, we grieve together.

I'm so sorry to hear about Punky. I lost Ziggy to FIP and it was very hard even though I didn't have him for very long it was a hard thing to go through.

You will never forget them, it just gets easier as time passes on and then you'll think about it again and you will cry but you will remember the good times.

My prays,
Melissa

I can understand how that made you feel. Today I got together some more things I had gotten for Christofur to take them to the Salvation Army. Every time I saw any of them would pierce my heart again.

Hugs to you and lovely memories of your beautiful Punky.
