I remember reading about h0p. I'm sorry to hear that he is gone. We have two ferals, exferals and they are very special miracle cats and are strange and wonderful.

I know exactly what you mean, the feral cats are amazing and exotic, and incredibly rewarding when they come to trust you. I hope everyone takes the time to give a home to a feral at some juncture. I hope to get into fostering ferals when I have a little bit of a larger place. I'm back up to five cats now, the cat who came to visit for a week, Isis, will be staying with us.

I just wanted you to know that I was so touched by this that I've contacted a professional calligrapher to hand write it for me. I'm going to frame it with a picture of h0p laying in my bed that was taken shortly before his death. It will go on the wall facing that side of the bed where he slept with me every night. Can you tell me who wrote this? Thank you again. Dee And St. Francis asked h0p's spirit Are you ready to come home? Oh, yes, quite so, replied h0p's precious soul And, as a cat, I am most able To decide anything for myself Are you coming then? Asked St. Francis Soon, replied the whiskered angel h0p But I must come slowly. For my human friend is troubled. For you see, she needs me, quite certainly. But doesn't she understand? asked St. Francis That you'll never leave her? That your souls are intertwined for all eternity? That nothing is created or destroyed? It just is...forever and ever and ever. Eventually she will understand, Replied the glorious h0p, For I will whisper into her heart That I am always with her I just am...forever and ever and ever Her alley cat, h0p. |

Dee, I think you understand. The two ferals we have are almost identical, both ragdolls, but one has a crooked tail. When they were little and still at their wildest, one of them bit me so hard that I thought I have a crushed finger joint. We named them Killer and Snowball. Killer was the one who bit me. He got away and we don't know which one it was because they look so much alike. : -) They still cry for each other some times and once in a while the other one will run to the other end of the house looking for his brother. They treat my wife and me like we are cats, after we do the necessary ritual of meowing and touching their noses with outstretched fingertips. After that they are the most affectionate of all. We lost Kissy recently and it was nice to be able to talk to you. "Dee" wrote in message d.edu... : On Thu, 16 Jun 2005, cat rancher wrote: : : I remember reading about h0p.

My post didn't make sense. Kissy was another of our cats and I still miss her. |

We spend our lives preserving relationships and enjoying the results. Then ,
one day, we have to make the decision that a beloved friend has to stop breathing. And, man it's hard. But we know it's the "right" decision for them. Another irony is that it is usually something that causes us pain, like an illness, an addition to our lives, . Then there's the other kind - the emptiness, the vacuum, the silence. And it was our strength and self-sacrifice that caused it. The pain will slowly go away, be assured of that. Tears will help wash it away. My very best wishes to you Wess Greenleaf -- Those who wish to pet and baby wild animals, "love" them. But those who respect their natures and wish to let them live normal lives, love them more.
