She was 17 and so very tired. Still makes me teary thinking of her. Now our Garagee is getting on in years and having difficult walking some days. Not to mention pooping. Oh dear, here comes the tears. I best just say how very sorry I am and get back to work. It's just that they give us such love and such joy, it's hard to say goodbye.

So sorry to hear you lost two cats in one weekend, that must have been horrible. Cats are so intuitive as you say maybe they needed to be together. We have another cat, Tilly. She is 6 years old and very independent, not a fussy, sit on your knee kinda girl. But I'm sure she is missing Buttons too and she has even let me tickle behind her ears which is a rare treat.Suzanne Furnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00908200156114453054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521754250583623909.post-22071755755551029112013-09-21T19:31:47.736+01:002013-09-21T19:31:47.736+01:00Dear Suzanne, Sending lots of loving thoughts to y...Dear Suzanne, Sending lots of loving thoughts to you and your family during this time of sadness and transition. I have lost so many cats over the years and each one has been heart breaking. They really do become part of the family. <br /><br />I had to write a post similar to this last year. We actually lost brother cats within a weekend. The first one had diabetes for several years and we were expecting it. What we weren't expecting was for his sweet brother to follow him two days later by throwing a clot. We did everything we could for him and finally realized that he just couldn't be here without his brother. <br /><br />Many blessings to you.Morgan Dragonwillowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17147836851533669779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521754250583623909.post-38305747892738990882013-09-21T16:35:39.341+01:002013-09-21T16:35:39.341+01:00I'm so sorry for your loss, Suzanne.

And I was there til her last day. It's so heartbreaking. I know how you feel. As hard as it is to hear, after you grieve, a new pet will fill you with love again.
