Sweet Precious Char, you are an angel watching over your Mom. And Mom, know that Char IS with you and is still loving you as he did in life. NO matter how long our cats are with us, be it 16 years like our Boo, or only 2 days like our little Sylvia Purrgoli(she died of distemper), they leave such a hole in our hearts. There is a wonderful little poem called "Lend me a kitten(put those words in your search engine)." It is hard to read thru the tears, but it is a beautiful poem!!! Thank you for sharing Char's story with us as COTD! Take Care....
