    Unhappy

    I am so sorry about the loss of your wonderful friend, Tigris. We have all watched the journey hoping against hope with you as you and poor Tigris headed for this final inevitable decision; I believe Tigris knew you would help him to the Bridge and he was ready.

    My heart goes out to you and Siegmar and Filou at this time of grief, Barbara.

    RIP sweet Tigris, Godspeed to the Bridge. Peace to your family. Come visit sometimes to let them know you're happy and pain free.

    So sorry for your loss but your words:

    "It was easy for him and he was so ready to leave us."

    are exactly what I just experienced with my Lab Casey on 9/7. It is such a peaceful and dignified way for them to go.

    Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

    Dear Barbara, Siegmar and Filou,

    My heart is heavy and I can't hold back the tears. It is hard to believe that Tigris is not here anymore.

    Tigris was one of favourites here. I am glad I had the pleasure to meet him and hold him, those memories are precious. Just recently, I watched the video from our visit, and it was good to see Tigris sitting in John's lab... and didn't he also play the piano.

    Barbara and Siegmar, you have done all you could to make him comfortable during his illness, and you have had a long life together full of love, playtime and cuddles. Keep those precious memories. Tigris enjoyed the last bit of sun yesterday, he got to hear the birds sing this morning, and you were all there to say goodbye - just as it should be. He is resting comfortably under his rose bush now.

    Dear Tigris, you will be missed very much, but never ever forgotten.

    Rest in peace, dear handsome boy!

    My thoughts are with you, Barbara, Siegmar and Filou.

    (((((hugs)))))

    I'm so sorry. Kirsten's right--PT won't be quite the same without handsome Tigris. He was a special boy.

    My thoughts are with you and Siegmar (and Filou) at this very difficult time.

    RIP Tigris. Your friends around the world won't ever forget you.

    This has not been a good year for Our Senior Pet Talker Cats , we have lost so many of Our Older Companion Cats in 2009.
    And now Tigris has passed over to the Rainbow Bridge as well.
    Hes got his Wings of Silver and Gold now, and Our Animal Angels are having a Big Picnic in his honor on the Amafli Coast and Tigris will start his second life as a Cat Angel.

    He will drop by and see you Barabara, Siegmar and Filou, and let you know that hes arrived in Paradise and will find some place nice where you will all be reunited when Our Loving Lord God reunites you all.

    Rest in Peace Tigris, our Beautiful One We are devastated and grieving along with some many others who have loved and admired you from afar.

    Take a moment sweetie to come and touch your mommy and daddy with a soft paw and let them know you are now whole and at peace. They love you so much and will miss you terribly.

    Love and warm hugs from Betty, Gunter and little Eve

    My heart is broken for you both. My tears are flowing freely and I know that feeling of emptiness so well. It is a pain like no other.

    He can't be far away - the spirit connection is just too strong.

    Much love and healing hugs are sent to you both.

    I am so sorry to read about Tigris. I know that it is never easy for us to let our beloved ones go, but he passed with dignity and grace. He is now waiting at the RB for the day you will be together again.

    You spent thirteen happy years together; still not long enough because we love our furkids so. You did your last act of kindness for Tigris and he is grateful to you. Hearing the night sounds and sleeping on your shoes before he made his trip to the Bridge were the most loving things that you could've done for him except to help him on his journey. RIP, dear boy. Take a nice long well deserved rest and then enjoy your new life until your reunion w/your humans. Peace to all.
    Blessings,
    Mary
