    I received a card from my vet yesterday and they had included Malachi's paw prints on a piece of paper. It made me cry all over again. Really missing him and feeling bad for Phinehas.

    Karen,
    Poor you and poor Phin.I Sure wish that there was a magic wand to fix everything. Mia is sitting on the computer desk right now, I am so grateful for her. I know that you are going through agony honey and I am SO sorry for your loss, so very sorry.

    We got a sympathy card from my vet as well when we had to put our cat Fred down and it made me feel even worse as well. Take your time, one does not have to put a time limit on great loss. What a beautiful cat Malachi.

    What a beautiful, beautiful boy!

    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    Thanks all for the kind words. It's been a hard week adjusting to our now quieter home. Phinehas has been glued to me nonstop and has been sleeping under the covers with me at night. I know it's going to take some time to adjust, but wanted to see if there was any advice in terms of helping a grieving cat and also when the right time would be to possibly add another companion cat. I know I'm not ready just yet, but would like Phinehas to have a kitty companion to cuddle with sometime in the future.

    It is hard, but when the time is right, your heart will know, I promise. There is no set time when one should get a new kitty - everything is variable including your heart, Phin's needs and the rest. We'll be thinking of you!
