On January 9th, 2023 I had to help my 15 year old female cat, Spotty cross the rainbow bridge. She wasn\’t well a week prior, then started having seizures. The the vet said she was shutting down, her kidneys were going, her vision was gone and she wasn\’t aware of her surroundings. This was a very difficult day, as she was my first cat and we shared a lot of good memories. This comes 1 year and 3 days I lost my previous cat Vinnie. He crossed the rainbow bridge on January 6, 2022. I know they both are well and flying high with the angels. I look forward to the day we will meet again. Bear, Twiggy and I miss you both very much. ox

    I’m so sorry for your loss. I understand how you feel and my heart goes out to you. I lost my 5 year old special cat on Jan. 5/22. I don’t cry as much as in the beginning, but with the holidays coming I think of him more now, and have days that it just hits me hard that he won’t be here, and the crying starts. I’m trying to understand that time lessens the grief, and focus on the good times. It still is hard but I’m trying to get through this.
      In reply to - Sally posted an update Still in mourning for my girls I lost to cancer this past summer and my dog I lost to old age. I can\'t seem to get over it. I find myself still crying. Just miss them so much. ]]>             b0f4b331761e5e675ae6ca67c999f78a Lorraine posted an update: Hello Toni. Starting to feel that the holidays are coming. […] https://www.faithfulfriends.com/social/activity/p/45154/ Sat, 12 Nov 2022 20:18:07 -0700 Hello Toni. Starting to feel that the holidays are coming. And also thinking of Vinnie more. I know the 1st Christmas is usually the hardest for me and my 3 other cats as well. I think the others have adjusted after 10 months since Vinnie’s passing (at least I think so). Not sure how long it takes cats to get over the grieving stage. I will miss the little lovebug tearing into the paper and always finds a box or 2 to hide in. As they say, time heals, and we will get through the season. Thankful, I have my 3 remaining cats with me. Bye for now.

      Thanks for your comments. Yes, he was a little lovebug. Always had to be near me. If I was in one room too long, he would come looking for me. He was the “Walmart greeter” of the house. His little eyes would light up when I came home. Actually, he and my other cat Bear would be there to welcome me home. Of course, only Bear greets me now, but there is always that missing you feeling. Holidays are coming up and that missing you feeling will be stronger, but my other 3 cats and I will get through it somehow.

        Hi, Vinnie was 5 yrs. old when he passed. I adopted him from the cat rescue I volunteer at. He was 7 months old at the time, and I fell in love with him. My other 3 cats bonded with him shortly after he joined us. He was an active little guy and of course got into mischief. He was a soft soul who loved to sit on my knee while I watched tv or read. He slept next to me and he was waiting by me when I woke up each morning. He loved people and wasn’t shy. I’m so happy I took him to my mom’s last Christmas, along with my other cat Bear, not knowing that it would be his last Christmas with us. Like most cats he enjoyed the excitement of boxes and wrapping paper, and both cats had a ball. I have some nice pictures and memories of that time. This year will be very different, but I know his spirit will be with me. Miss you my baby boy. ox

In your short 5 years, we shared much love, fun and know you were a happy boy sharing good times with your sister and two brothers. We all miss you sweet, gentle boy. Until we all meet once again.
