Denise, how lucky were you and Frisco to share so many loving and fun years together! I agree – saying goodbye, while hard, is actually a loving and kind thing to “feel good” about – but coming home to a quiet, empty house is brutal. And yes, indeed, writing to and about our beloved is a wonderful way to express your feelings and thoughts, to send them a little message of love❤️You might also find comfort writing what you think Frisco would send to you in a note. You are welcome to share any of your writings with us. We understand and care. OH! Please join us this Thursday at our group meeting to share more about Frisco and your lives together🤗Toni

Brony, cats find the darndest places to sleep. We found one of ours in the engine of the car because it was warm! It would be fun to have everyone share pictures of “strange cat sleeping spots”!! Thanks for sharing darling little Crazy Lucy. We like to participate in adventures😻😻 -

How nice of you to give Kwestoun a loving and happy home, Cathe. Clever name – it fit the situation! I am torn about not letting cats go outside. I undertsand the risks of plants or other animals (and vehicles) but some cats just want to wander and explore. It’s a toughie to balance their safety and their preferred lifestyle. I am so happy to meet you and have you share your story about Kwetoun with us. I hope you continue to do so, and that you share more adventures with us. 💔Toni -

Tami, what a lovely thing to do – see our friends in the clouds💕
I wrote a poem about this: (My ‘A Touch from Beyond’ line of cards): https://www.atouchfrombeyond.com/We are all angels, but now I have wings
We dance in the clouds, and everyone sings
So don’t be unhappy – I’m always above
To shelter and guide you, and give you my love ❤️ -

Hello Everybody: Meet my newest addition to my family, Eddie. Eddie is about 5 years old, a Jack-A-Bee (Jack Russell/Beagle Mix, it is thought), and about 25 pounds, who came to me via my niece, who is a realtor and was having lunch with a co-worker who told her she was getting ready to list a house for a gentleman who was in assisted living and while he was allowed to and did have Eddie with him, he didn\’t feel it was a good situation for him or for Eddie. My niece knew I had been \”looking\” for a new furbaby and here we are.-

Yesterday we had big fluffy clouds, so of course I was cloud watching. I couldn’t believe all the animal shapes I saw. And so clearly. Our best friends are in a very special place now. It’s hard to be separated, but they are happy and at peace.

Such a good and beautiful boy. It’s so hard to make that decision. I had to do it a week ago today. Maybe writing a story a day in honor of your best friend would help you. It would be an amazing story. And a wonderful tribute to him -

I had a neighbor who had a cat hanging around her place for weeks. She asked me if I wanted him. She knew I loved Siamese cats. I’m not really sure if it was a stray or one of her kittens that need a home. I jumped at the opportunity. Since we didn’t know any thing about him we named him Kwestoun. (Question) I wanted to be different. He was an indoor cat. I would walk him outside on a leash every once in a while. He would travel to Florida with us every winter. He got out once on me in Fl. and I had a search party of friends looking for him. I found him and he was upset that I did. lol He had gotten sick on something while out there. His whole body would shake. I carried him to his litter box, food & his bed. After about a week it just got so bad, we decided to say good bye. I took him to be cremated as I couldn’t picture him buried in the ground with all the fire ants. He rests in a nice cat urn now. He was a seal point. -

Hi Toni, this is crazy Lucy. She doesn\’t know how to use this scratching pad, but she is using it to sleep on.-

Hi all… this is Frisco. I lost him almost 2 months ago. Actually, I had to make that awful decision. He was 3 months shy of 17. I especially miss him being at the door waiting for me. Towards the end, I would have to jiggle the handle and wait a few minutes for him to get up as his arthritis was full blown. He had puppy brain tho, and couldn\’t help himself from chasing doves or kitties. He was my best friend. I miss him soo. Gosh I could write a book on all our adventures, some good some pretty funny. Thanks for letting me share.-

Twenty years … it’s never enough for us, but how fabulous for you and Kwestoun to share so many years of love and fun together. Please tell us about the name Kwestoun – I’ve never heard that. And please do share more about your lives together for all those years. My Squirt was with me 19 years, BG was only with me 5 years but was 18 when she passed… gosh it doesn’t matter how old they were, nor how long we were together, it’s the depth of love and life we enjoyed that matters, do you think? How are you doing, Cathe? It hurts at a very deep level and I hope you are surrounded by understanding, caring people. We are here for you, and I hope we get to meet you at this Thursday’s group meeting. I am thinking of you. Toni -
