put cat to sleep on Friday and now this...
Today I learned our 2 year old cat was hit by a car. She had been missing since last Tuesday. This after having to put our older cat to sleep just last week. I don't know what is happening, I want to understand. Two beloved pets so close together and now we have no cats anymore. Cat lovers out there help me get over this. I'm looking for the rainbow here but it just feels like a terrible storm. I haven't told the kids yet about the younger cat yet and I don't know how I will.

:cry:

We lost our first cat in a car accident over 30 years ago now, and I still remember the pain we went through. :hug:

Poem For Cats

And God asked the feline spirit
Are you ready to come home?
Oh, yes, quite so, replied the precious soul
And, as a cat, you know I am most able
To decide anything for myself.

Are you coming then? asked God.
Soon, replied the whiskered angel
But I must come slowly
For my human friends are troubled
For you see, they need me, quite certainly.

But don't they understand? asked God
That you'll never leave them?
That your souls are intertwined. For all eternity?
That nothing is created or destroyed?
It just is....forever and ever and ever.

Eventually they will understand,
Replied the glorious cat
For I will whisper into their hearts
That I am always with them
I just am....forever and ever and ever.

11. That is horrible news. I am so sorry.
:hug:


I know there is no way to "replace" two beloved pets in such short time, but there are always plenty of cats out there who need a good home.
