Default I miss my Mutt

Hi. I have never posted to this group before, but my wife Kyla has posted
much and you may have read her posts. We have always had kitties and they
have been our guardian angels.

We have had some very special kitties over the years. One of the most
unique was a stray we named Waldo, but his nickname was Mutt. That is
what we always called him. He became my best friend for 17 years. He was
a polydactyl with big feet and extra toes. He always made us smile..

Boy, did we bond! He would climb up on me all the time and cling so tight
we would call him Velcro Kitty. I could walk around the house and do
chores with him attached to my shoulder.

He brought so much joy and love into our home. We also called him Love
Sponge because he could never get enough affection. He would hate it when
I left the house and was always very happy when I returned.

He crossed the bridge last December and we were so sad, but kitties do
come into our lives and then go away. We have been owned by so many
kitties over the years, but it is always hard to say goodbye to them.

We still have 4 kitties. They are good kitties and we love them, but none
are as special as Mutt. He was my best friend.

I love my Mutt. I miss him so much. It has been seven months since he
left us. I was doing okay adjusting to his parting, but for some reason I
have been filled with great sadness for the last month, missing my sweet
Mutt. I cry every day.

I am writing this post, hoping that it will make me feel better, hoping
that is will relieve some of my grief. I know many of you have also had
to say goodbye to your best friends. It is never easy, is it?

A friend of mine told me that our kitties in heaven speak well of us to
other cats.

Purrs and prayers for my sweet Mutt. I will never stop loving him, but I
hope I can stop crying soon.

Mutt's best friend,
Dutch


No, it's never easy, Dutch. I won't say I feel your pain, because it's
yours, but I can come close, because I just lost my most special cat. I'm
hoping for the day when the memories are happy instead of so terribly
painful.
