They carve a spot out in our heart and when they're no longer around to cuddle with, a void is left.<br /><br />I think wherever our dogs and cats go, the cats get to chase (and catch) all they birds and mice they want.

We only had her for 4 years, and she came to us the same way your cats came to you ... she found us! Her name was Betsy, but before we knew her name we referred to her as Boots, Bootsy, or Miss Boots because of the boot-like pattern of the white and black fur. When we learned her name from her previous owners, she became Miss Betsy Boots.<br />Even though we now have another cat from the same owners - who came to us the same way - I still miss my sweet little Betsy. She was so loving and gentle and I will never forget her.<br /><br />I'm very sorry for you loss.Lilly Briarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00966737406515696652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2525148995025436573.post-87695864640110753612011-06-14T13:20:09.802-07:002011-06-14T13:20:09.802-07:00It's just awful what people are capable of doi...It's just awful what people are capable of doing to animals. Poor Zoe just thrown out like that. But obviously she was meant to go home with you. And then Oreo -- so funny that he kept coming back. Meant to be! I know how you are feeling. I had a street cat come to me 14 months ago. I named her Sweet Kitty because she was so sweet. I could tell she had been owned by someone who threw her out. Although I couldn't take her in because of our indoor cat, I did feed her every day, pet her and last year a friend helped raise the 7 kittens she had -- they all were adopted. Every morning at 6 am and in the evening, Sweet Kitty would meow at the door, wanting her spoonful of canned food and handful of cat food. She showed up last week with blood coming from her mouth and couldn't eat. I wiped her down, cleaned her mouth, petted her and tried to do everything to help her but couldn't. And she was getting so thin because she couldn't eat. Our temps are 120 so you can imagine what would happen with no water intake. When I took her to the vet on Saturday, he said she needed to be put to sleep. Although it was the right thing to do, it was so hard and I was so upset that entire day. I still think I hear her in the mornings but then remember she is gone. Your Oreo was handsome and was lucky to have you.
