It seems that, for the last couple of days, I have been breaking out crying over the deaths of my beloved cats. It's been a year and a half or so when the last of three oldsters left - all in the space of a year. I see avatars on forums and pictures here and there that remind me of them. They were all no less than 15 years old, but I so did not want their companionship to ever end. They were, from oldest to youngest: abandoned late in life (Tigger), disposed of as a kitten (Guy Lombardo) and just showed up as a youngster (Spot). I can't stop crying now, but I will stop writing.<br /><br />Stay magnificent and warm, Ramon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2548884643150397912.post-47731996585763082522013-01-26T13:54:24.227-06:002013-01-26T13:54:24.227-06:00I know this is a years-old entry, hon, but I just ...I know this is a years-old entry, hon, but I just met you.

My heart still breaks and tears come to my eyes when I think of her...but I force myself to remember her beauty and kindness and all her funny ways and she still brings me happiness and smiles.<br /><br />I understand how you are feeling, gracie. Thank you for being able to care so deeply. Be in peace, Ramon.lostinthewoodshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06638690912925773954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2548884643150397912.post-12031042196063288532010-10-27T20:17:16.695-05:002010-10-27T20:17:16.695-05:00I am so sorry, Sheri. :0(I am so sorry, Sheri. :0(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2548884643150397912.post-85033482496604008142010-10-27T20:17:03.446-05:002010-10-27T20:17:03.446-05:00Fred, this was our third old dog in eleven months ...Fred, this was our third old dog in eleven months to pass over. We lost our wild-haired terrier Spooj around Thanksgiving last year to liver failure at 16, Galut our first pyrenees right after Christmas to cancer at 9, and now Ramon.<br /><br />We've got three left- Kate is a 12 year old border collie, Sugarbearmarshmallowdog is a 5 year old pyrenees, and Fizzgig is the baby at 7 months old.<br /><br />Spooj and Fizzgig were from the Humane Society, Ramon was found, Galut was a throwaway, and we're Kate's retirement home. Only Sugarbearmarshmallowdog was gotten "on purpose".<br /><br />And you're completely correct- rescues are best. OLD rescues even better.<br /><br />Give a big hug to Tessa for me.lunamotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14514608202415217448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2548884643150397912.post-14294077783652431982010-10-27T19:32:08.692-05:002010-10-27T19:32:08.692-05:00Tessa is watching her third old dog in three years...Tessa is watching her third old dog in three years go through the last stages. She had them all since pups. One of them lived to be eighteen. We've still got other younger ones. We stagger them so we're never dogless. I recommend getting another.
