Cat Forum / General Topics / March 2004Goodbye to my 18 year old friend Lucky...
In memory of my cat LUCKY... Last night I sat and watched as my 18 year old friend took his last gasps of breath...he wasn't a pet...nobody owned him...he wasn't just around at feeding time...he was there all the time... I would put him out of the back door in the morning and he would be at the front door in 30 seconds...that was his days exercise... He was older than 6 of my 8 kids from 2 previous relationships... We all cried together this morning...but on the other hand we were all happy that we had met him in the first place... He found me on a pub car park back in 1986...he wasn't a kitten but he wasn't a fully grown cat...as I was on a Lambretta at the time I had to get someone to give me a lift home with him... Bye Lucks.... -- Chaney Chaney's World www.chaney.i12.com God bless you and thank you for giving him a good and loving home and except our prayers and condolences.

Around 2.00pm I plucked up the courage to ring the Pet Grematorium...I got him there around 3.00pm...tears streaming down my face and bloodshot eyes I left knowing that in 2 days I will be bringing him home again...Oh how I miss my friend... -- Chaney Chaney's World www.chaney.i12.com > In memory of my cat LUCKY... > [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > Chaney's World > www.chaney.i12.com > Around 2.00pm I plucked up the courage to ring the Pet Grematorium...I got > him there around 3.00pm...tears streaming down my face and bloodshot eyes I > left knowing that in 2 days I will be bringing him home again...Oh how I > miss my friend... You will never forget him. Which is how it should be.

Yes. We miss them, every one, but some leave a bigger hole in our hearts than others. I read your post about the old jumper (haven't gone to the pic yet, but I will). It was so touching, and so right. They're comforted by such things it life, but especially so in passing. You're a good soul. May you soon find more joy than sorrow in your memories. SignatureDiana Portal To My Pages http://bellsouthpwp.net/d/r/drdrive/ I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my sweet kitty on Feb. 1st. She was only 9, but had renal failure for 5 years and caring for her made us extremely close. It doesn't seem possible now, I know, but it will get better. I cried again today for Muffin, but hadn't cried in almost a week. You'll miss Lucky forever, but time will heal and he'll be waiting for you at the Rainbow Bridge (He looks exactly like my cat Patch!!) And he looks GREAT for an 18 year old cat. You obviously took wonderful care of him and I know he loves you for that. God Bless.
