I just received an email from Kathy who understandably is in no condition to post this herself. Kitty is on his way to the Bridge and she feels it was the absolute right decision for reasons I'm sure she will discuss in the weeks to come.

It was very peaceful . No pain, no incident. They were in a chair outside on her porch, he in her lap surrounded by the arms that held him so many times. His very favorite position in the whole world. And he just went to sleep in his momma's arms.

Kathy thanks everyone so much for all of the support and I'm sure you'll all hear from her soon

Kathy this is fom me , Alex and Jackson and I know you'll get this
"now there's tears on my pillow where you slept,
You took my heart when you left.
Without your sweet kiss my soul
Is lost my friend
Tell me how do I begin again
My city's in ruins...
Come on Rise Up Come On Rise Up..."
It's what Kitty would want... You were the best mom ever .
TRUE STORY!
 
Fly free Kitty - we will all miss you.

I am glad that Kitty's crossing was peaceful, held in you arms, resting on your lap. You have given Kitty the finest gift possible. May there be comfort for you in the thousands of memories that I know you have. Kitty will always be with you - in your heart, and your minds eye.
 
Kitty, there will be so many of your friends gathering to welcome you to the Bridge. Fly free, sweet boy, on your beautiful new golden wings, land softly, and send comfort and love to your mamabean.
Kathy, you gave your boy a wonderful life and you have given him the best gift of all--a loving farewell until you meet again.

In deepest sympathy,

Ella & Edward, Rusty, and Stu (preparing a welcome dinner for his friend, Kitty)
 
(((Kathy)))) So many tears flowing for you in LL tonight but Kitty chose the time and the place....with you in your arms.....with the one he always loved the most. That was his gift to you.

Gentle Journey, Kitty.

I am so sorry for the loss of Kitty. I know how your heart is breaking. Thank you for being there to help me with kind words when I needed help with Lilly many months ago. Again I am so sorry, my prayers are with you.

((((((Kathy)))))))

Fly free sweet Kitty, fly free.

What a truly difficult decision you had to make yesterday.....but it was a decision made because of the deep love and devotion you had for Kitty. Your special, special Kitty is free of any discomfort and now breathe freely w/o any distress.

I know that Curry, BigMac and all the others were there to greet Kitty as he came across the bridge. He is not alone but with so many kitty friends now. Lots of playing and headbutts.
And I'm know Chef Stu prepared a special dinner to welcome Kitty.

And you are not alone Kathy. Know that your friends and family here in LantusLand are standing beside you.

May the sweet memories of Kitty hold you and comfort you during this time.

Lots of love
Tena an d Sidney
 
We are so saddened to hear about Kitty. ((((Kathy)))) You are a great bean who gave Kitty the best gift of all at the end. Fly free little one.

My heart goes out to you, Kathy, in your time of loss. Kitty will be very sadly missed. I know that Bear Man was one of many old friends to greet him at the Bridge.
 
May you find comfort in this time of sorrow.
May you find joy through the tears.
May you find happiness in your memories.
And most of all, May you find peace.
Fly free sweet boy you are much loved and will be sorely missed. Until you meet again.
 
(((((Kathy))))) I am so sorry for your loss of Kitty. (tears) I know how much you loved him and so does he. I hope in time your loving memories will ease your pain. Sending prayers of peace and comfort to you and your family.

Fly Free Kitty and Land Softly! wings_cat
 
Just a word to thank you all, from the bottom of my heart. It has given me strength and comfort to read your loving and supportive words.

I miss him, I miss him! But I know he needed to go, and DH and I wanted to protect him from fear and suffering.

Your loving support is helping me cry tears of loss, not anguish. Love and thanks to you all.
 
Kathy, this book helped me a little when BigMac died.
  • Wherever You Are
    my love will find you

    by Nancy Tillman
It is a child's book but when I saw it at the bookstore, I needed to have it.

The first page:

  • I wanted you more
    than you ever will know,
    so I sent love to follow
    wherever you go.

Middle of book:

  • In the green of the grass... in the smell of
    the sea... in the clouds floating by...
    at the top of a tree... in the sound
    crickets make at the end of the day...

    "You are loved. You are loved, You are
    loved," they all say.

Last page:

  • You are my angel, my darling, my star...
    and my love will find you,
    wherever you are.

This is just beautiful ...Really really beautiful. I'm sure Kathy will love this :) It's what she needs ....
 
Yes, it is so beautiful, and it is just what I need. I need him to know that wherever he is, the place I helped him go, my love is still with him.

Just all broken up today, but taking so much comfort from all of you.
 
I hope today is a little brighter for you. A love shared is never lost. Remember when one door closes another opens, don't spend too much time looking at the closed door.

Find a place inside where there's joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.
- Joseph Campbell

Oh, Kitty...dear, sweet, inspirational Kitty-

this is utterly devastating.

May the angels hold you closely on your journey,
and hold Kathy even closer- as we know her heart is shattered.

Sweet boy, you have touched hearts around the world- you and your mama have been there for so many of us.

The world is an infinitely smaller and sadder place today.

Land softly, legendary and lovely big boy- and know that there are rivers of tears flowing at your passing.

Celi, Binks, Smudge, and Annie

I need him to know that wherever he is, the place I helped him go, my love is still with him.

He knows...and while it doesn't ease the heartache- I believe he can hear the soul beyond the veil, and knows what you feel for him.

Fly Free Dearest Kitty.....we will miss you....until we all meet again...
(((Kathy))) We re so sorry for your loss....and hope that your wonderful memories of Kitty will bring you comfort during these sad times.
With Love,

Another little bit from Nancy Tillman's book:

  • It never gets lost, never fades, never ends...
    if you're working...
    or playing...
    or sitting with friends.

    You can dance 'til you're dizzy...
    paint 'til you're blue...
    There's no place, not one,
    that my love can't find you.

I read that part and think about how BigMac's love is still here; the words have helped me with my grief... I hope they can help you a little bit too. (((((Kathy))))) cat_pet_icon

Guess what? This train...carries kitties too!

Hi Mom and Dad,

I wanted you to know that it was me last night and I am fine.
I feel so much better now!
There are porches and chairs and everywhere there are windows
There is chicken dust EVERYWHERE..they said you ordered it special for me. And all my
favorite foods too.

I know you are sad. I am too. And I miss you.
But I can see you even though you can't see me.
I promise I will let you feel me and you will know.
When you feel a soft breeze in your hair or a tickle on your
neck or leg or ear...just say hello.

As long as I live in your heart, and I know that will be forever,
I will always be with you. You and dad were the best parents
a kitty could have hand picked.

You and dad finish your journey. I will be here. Faith WILL be rewarded and as long as you believe, I will See you in The Land Of Hope And Dreams!
(I had to pick up something Bruceful in all these years)!

Tons of Love and lots of kisses,
Your boy,
Kitty

Caryl, my broken heart just mended a little bit. Thank you for channeling my kitty to me. It is his voice. He just let me see him a little. And I'm so glad he has his chicken dust.

He did hand pick us, I know. He was sent here, he came to us. The first time I took him to the vet, she said, "He sure picked the right house."

To all of you: I just can't tell you how much your hugs and support and candles mean to me. I will be back with more on how this all happened so quickly as soon as I can. But in the meantime, just know that you are really helping me learn to live with him not quite next to me.

Love you all. Kathy
