I gave away Persia's remaining r/x cat food
Someone where I live has a cat that also eats the prescription kibble.
So I sent out an email saying if anyone wanted what was left you can have it. I stored it in an air-tight container. A man replied his cat eats the same food, so he came over and picked up what was left. I gave $ off coupons for Cat's Pride kitty litter to my neighbor. At this point I do not think I'll be getting another cat. That may change, given time. Maybe once I get her credit card paid off. I loved her dearly and always will, but damn she was expensive. Between medical problems over the years and prescription food, wow. Still, I would not have given her up for the world. I'd have gladly paid if she could have been comfortable for another couple of years. Sadly, it was not destined to be that way. I'm not ready to take on another. Thank you all again for your kind wishes. It means a lot to me. I'm glad I could share her and her antics with you over the years. She was a real sweetheart. I say goodnight to her every night, even though I know she's not here. She's around somewhere. Jill |

I say good night to all my departed cats at bedtime. Ike (who disappeared), Amber, Aggie (store cat at Agway that I used to visit), and Coco - who almost stayed with me but he wouldn't eat.

It took us two years before we got another cat because we missed their companionship and the love they bring into a house. Jack G. |

For now remember all the love and fun you shared, it really is priceless. Don't write off having another cat, if it's meant you'll have one. It took us 4 years before we had another after Sophie (RB). A friend of mine waited 6 years. It's just when it feels right. I say good night each night to Sweep (RB), Sophie (RB) and Sootie wherever she might be at that time, inside or out. Please don't stop posting on here. I found it very helpful and very nice to come and chat to cat people. Judith Oh, I won't stop posting. I have enjoyed this group and hearing about all the cats for many years. And maybe, one day, I'll post about a new one. I don't anticipate that any time soon. Only time will tell. I washed and put away Persia's litter box. Swept the errant kitty litter off the floor. I washed and put away her food bowls and the plastic table mats they sat on. (She was a messy eater!) Those spots are empty now, and so is my heart. But that doesn't mean I don't want to hear about other kitties. Persia is gone, but she will live forever in my heart. No one needs to be afraid to bring her up. Jill |

No one needs to be afraid to bring her up. I'm glad that you won't be leaving the group. Maybe we'll even hear occasionally about your neighborhood cats. After Betty, I always wanted to have a tuxedo girl present to remind me and fill that little emological niche. If Persia was my first cat, I'm sure that I'd always pine for a plush and smiley gray girl cat. |
