Karrie and Maverick

Member Since 2010
I debated about posting this. I know everyone is different about loss though and about when they would be ready and you guys have been there for Maverick and I.

My friend and I are going to the shelter tomorrow. I met her there today to drop of an SUVs worth of stuff for their spring/summer garage sales. I got a tour while I was there (she is on their board of directors). The shelter was impressive. Great big rooms/pens with multiple cats that get along - tons of space. A TLC room for cats with needs (where the itty bitty mini Maverick was - Willie was his name) And another room with cats up for adoption ready to go.

Willie is a tiny grey maine coon and a little love bug and rail thin. And when he rolled over, he kept rolling - very strange. Something was wrong with him. When he stood up it looked like what I've seen as neuropathy. They don't test BG and they have to bring cats or their urine to the vet for testing. They said he's too young to have diabetes and that he's dealing with a urinary tract infection (coffee coloured urine). He's less than a year old. My dog (13 with CHF) cannot deal with a kitten like him - it wouldn't be fair to her. But he pulled at my heart BIG time.

I was talking with them about Willie and testing for diabetes etc. I let her know I was keeping my heart open for a talker - was waiting for one to talk to me. And she was like, a talker huh - did I consider Nickle? And she pulls up her picture. She wasn't there today she was getting spayed. Guess she is on the shy side for cuddles (not a lap kitty) but talkative. After soul searching and emotions running high today and tonight, I've decided to go meet Nickle tomorrow. Here is a link to her tiny bio: http://www.lanarkanimals.ca/cats1.asp?page=6

Nickel.jpg


Even with the tv going and 3 fish tanks, the house is so quiet and its so lonely without him here. The quiet is hard to get used to even after accepting losing Maverick. I knew after the physical pain of his loss had passed, that I would have my heart open again. I am not looking to replace Maverick - there is no replacing my soulmate kitty. I will still be grieving his loss - its been less than two weeks. I will be grieving him a lot longer - its a process not a race. I've been staying busy. Organizing the house, reading (haven't read a novel in three years or more), and I joined the gym before Maverick crossed and started going again a couple days ago.

If there isn't that energy that I expect to feel then its not the right time or cat, I'm going to wait until there is. If anything, they'll have test strips and dip sticks. Guess we'll see what tomorrow has in store. May or may not have a kitty. My emotions are high - my heart is going back and forth. I think you guys can understand its not an easy decision. I don't want Maverick to think I'm moving on without him, even seeing a cat other than Maverick in the house will have heart tugs and emotions, whether I'm trying to circumvent the grieving process, whether my dog will adjust okay or if it will be too much for her (working out a plan to minimize an impact on her), etc.

I hope everyone is okay with this condo rental - maybe in place of Maverick's until tomorrow? I wanted to share so it wasn't a surprise tomorrow if I do have a connection.

Sending hugs.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Karrie,
you will do what feels right....keeping in mind Nike and her current needs....

how about going there with Patrick? would he oppose to another kitty?
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

there is no right length of time - you'll know if it's right for you. it's not disloyal, it's another kitty, completely different from Maverick, who also needs a home.

just a thought, though, is that sometimes an adult pet will tolerate a little one even if they don't "like" cats. it's like they know they are babies.

i'm thrilled you're back - let us know how things go.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Patrick won't come - he said he would be too overwhelmed by the shelter and all the cats needing loving homes.

I'm going to take your advice and ask about fostering first. I think this would be ideal.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Oh my goodness. What you must be going through. I want you to know that i feel for you and that in no way will Maverick be upset. He knows how much love you have to give and would consider it a waste if you did not share with another kitty. Besides, how do you know that Maverick hasn't already checked Nickle out for you and thinks that he's the one, not to replace, but to carry on the Love and compassion and care that you showed your boy. Trust me, you'll know when it's right. Mavericks got your back! He'll send you a good one. No Doubt. Please keep us up to date ok?
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

fostering will be a great way to get your feet wet again at the idea of another kitty in the house and also to see if Nike will adjust to the new addition....doesn't hurt to ask if fostering is ok for now...at least they know that kitty is being looked after outside the facility....with the option of adopting him/her later....

good luck tomorrow....will keep you in my thoughts and prayers....it is a big decision...
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Karrie everyone has s different process for grief. Only you will know if it is the right time and if it feels right to you it is probably Maverick telling you to go for it! I am sure he doesn't want you to be sad and remember there is a piece of your heart that will always belong only to Maverick, that will never change. So if Nickle calls out to you, I say go for it. As I have seen on this forum, we have room in our lives and hearts for many furbabies, sometimes MANY all at once. And if it doesn't seem like the right time, you will have another opportunity for sure when it is. If it doesn't make you too sad, can I ask how Maverick got his name? It makes me think of Top Gun, every time I hear it.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

I think it is a wonderful idea. Your have a great big heart. {{hug}}

You are not replacing Maverick Karrie. Look at it like you are going to have another furball to observe, to care for and to have fun with :-D
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

When is the right time to fall in love? When is the right time for anything? I doubt that there ever is a right time. Do you pick the cat or does the cat pick you? Karrie -- you'll know. And knowing is what makes it right.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Karrie, If it feels right, it will be right. Maverick's memory and the love you have for him will not be diminished by adopting or fostering a kitty who would be so happy to have a home.
You have so much love and compassion and to share it with a kitty in need would be a wonderful thing.

Many hugs,

Ella & Rusty
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Karrie, you are just one of the biggest hearted people I've ever (not) met. :-D :-D :-D You'll know. :)

Do Willie a favor, though. sneak a monitor with you, and give that boy a poke when no one's looking. :-D

I understand the losing your soulmate feeling... Miss Jezebelle was literally my female doppleganger.... the feline version of me. When we met, it seemed she would never be a lap kitty... she was so shy. But ultimately, she became my bestest girl, and would spend tons of time in my lap getting all kinds of lubbins. I"m toying with the idea of a furbaby addition to the house as well, though would like to get Willie off his immune suppresants before I do. I'm actually thinking of having a pet communicator come in and talk to Willie about it before I move forward.

Your heart will guide you, and it will be right. So glad you're contemplating opening that big heart of yours to a new friend. :)

Miss you!!
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

:) Totally supportive of whatever you do. Maverick knows you have an overabundance of love and that there are other kitties who need to experience it like he has and always will. :)
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

I think for those of us who have had diabetic cats the hole left when they leave is even bigger - we dedicate a lot of time and energy for these guys...give up a lot of freedom. Somehow through that you end up bonding tighter to them than you ever would have before. I can completely understand wanting a new friend to help fill the space that Maverick left behind, and I think he would want you to do what makes you the happiest. There is no replacing them...but you can have room in your heart to love another.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Karrie, good luck tomorrow. I also think the next kitty will be a hand picked "gift" from Maverick. That's what they do. They want us to be happy. :-D

I'll be watching for your post tomorrow. I'm nervous and excited for you!
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Hi ((((Karrie)))),

I think adding another furbaby to your home is just so wonderful. cat_pet_icon . And I also believe Maverick would be so happy that you will be sharing all your heart and love with another. Honest to God, When Witty died it was only a few weeks and I wanted to rush out and get another FD kitty. I missed the strong bond Witty and I had developed with all the care I provided her. And truely I really missed all the support and love we got here, but I soul searched and realized it was more about my loss. I would however still take in another if we did not already have 4 other pets (it was 5 with Witty). I really would be the crazy cat lady then.

Willie's story really pulled at my heart. We have a Maine Coon (Timmy), he also has feline herpes, which is well managed, and he is the most loving, snuggle baby we have. I just love the Maine Coons. Nickle is a beauty too. I would want to take them both home. Help!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: .

You'll do what feels right in your heart. I'm rooting for you guys, and I'm really proud of you.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

(((Karrie))) I think it is just wonderful that you have your heart open to giving another kitty a forever home and all the love you have to offer. Like the others said, you have such a big heart and are so compassionate. Gosh there are so many Shelter pets needing a forever home. Once you meet Nickel, you will know if it is right. Maverick wants you to be happy and I'm sure your friend will offer advice on how to introduce the new kitty to Nike, if this is meant to be. I can't wait to hear back from you after your trip to the shelter to meet Nickel.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Karrie, I will be waiting to see what you choose to do ... You will only know if it is right once you are there and see Nickle face to face .. and know if there is a connection .. maverick doesn't think you are moving on without him .. he is waiting for you to share your love with someone else, cause he knows how much you have to give ...
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Karrie, I think it is wonderful that you are going to go to the shelter and possibly open your heart to another kitty that needs your special love. When my first kitty, Shalimar (GA) left me, I thought I would never be able to get another kitty because I loved her so much. I refused to even think about it. I cried myself to sleep for 4 months straight because I felt so bad because my Shalimar wasn't there with me. Finally, I was at a pet store that had abandoned cat adoptions, and in one cage was a beautiful cat that looked alot like Shalimar. The minute I held her, she started purring and almost hugging me with her paws. I took her home that day and stopped crying myself to sleep. This new cat, Mariah (GA), was never a substitute for Shalimar, but instead, became my new baby, one that I loved with all my heart. You will know when it is the right time to bring another baby home. You are not replacing Maverick but giving your unbelievable love to another kitty that is looking for someone just like you.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Karrie --You are in mourning and I so understand that--No cat can ever replace Maverick..That is your
private place in your heart.--When I lost my second dog I ran away for 2 weeks, i couldnt stay in my house-went to Key West---There I realized that I gave my dear dog 16 yrs, and maybe it was time to open our home to another homeless dog...Which we did--Pumpkin became my soulmate dog, & when she left for the
bridge, I already had these 2 loving cats-
You can never replace.
But open your heart because there are So So So Many Homeless Kitties out there desperate for a furever home--Maverick knows you are helping another--Follow your heart-We love you no matter what you decide--
Hugs from Us!!
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

I'm glad I posted.

I'm supposed to be leaving in ten minutes. I don't know if my heart will be open. I spent a lot of time thinking last night. I know, that I will know in my heart. I will feel it. Feeling kind of detached this morning.

If anything it will not be a wasted trip if I chose to wait. Going to be testing Willie's bg and training them on doing this. And bringing ketones stricks and glucose urine dip sticks.

Maverick's tribute video is up today. CD has compiled a lot of Maverick's pictures including a couple as a kitten. Sharing smiles instead of tears.

Thank you for the kind words. I didn't get to sleep until very very late last night and these helped a lot.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

(((Karrie))) I think that Maverick is talking to you and telling you that it is OK to love another kitty and to honor his memory by helping another kitty. Only you and Patrick can know when the time is right for you.

Since you have a friend on the Board of Directors ;-) perhaps they would allow you to foster Nickle for a couple of weeks with an option to adopt?
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

You'll now when the right time is to get another cat ((hugs)) Don't let anyone make you feel bad about not getting anothere cat right away. Right after Squishy left, people were already asking me when I would get another cat and they would constantly ask and ask. Some of these were cat-owners, too (not from FDMB). The constant asking made me feel like that there was something "wrong" with taking time to grieve and be ready for a new cat. I know there are people who get a new cat right away and that's great for them. But lots of people need months before they are ready for a new cat. It took me nearly a year after Squishy went to the Bridge to even seriously consider another cat. The on Squishy's 1 year GA annniversary (and nearly at the exact same time as his passing), I brought my new kiten home :smile: Then Squishy sent me another a few months later and now I have two kittens who only do bcatrun_gif 24/7 @-)

Maverick will let you know when it's time for a new cat. I'm sure he will send you the right cat your way at the right time cat_pet_icon

Can't say any better than that.

Karrie...glad to see that you rented a condo and shared this w/the family.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Hi Karrie,
Like I said to you in that message I sent you...I was grief ridden when I lost my last cat of almost 17 years. How could I have possibly ended up with 2 more
less than 90 days later? And I too was going to look about a month later but strictly telling myself I was JUST LOOKING. I felt so guilty even doing that. How could I betray my Chance like that? Then someone said something to me, or I read it...I don't remember because I was surrounded by pet loss grief books at the time,"why would you think that your cat would be happy if you didn't bring home another one? Wasn't the experience with Chance so happy that you just can't imagine yourself without another cat in your life? Wouldn't Chance want to think that was how you felt about your life with him"? Another way of looking at it for sure and minimizing the guilt :lol:

When I went to Pet Smart I WAS just looking, and maybe hoping to find something to fill my lonely heart. I was looking for a kitten though. A new baby. Definitely a kitten. Alex and Jackson were almost 6 months old. Adorable but not babies and no one was taking them..only playing with them. They wanted to get out of there and they were just waiting for the right person to see how charming and smart and adorable they were. They tore at my heart. I KNEW. I went back every day to play with them but still felt guilty. It was too soon. Like I said..About a week into this I was all of a sudden afraid I would get there and they would be gone. They were MY CATS in my head already. I called the adoption lady and told her I'd be in in the morning and DON'T ADOPT THEM OUT!!!(personally I think they had the papers ready)

Somehow..you just know...when the right cat has picked you out at the exact right time that you are ready. Today, tomorrow, next week or next month.

You will know :)

And it will not minimize your love for Maverick either. I found a letter I wrote to Chance a year after he crossed over...a letter to him at the bridge. I read it last night and tears were rolling down my face. They are all special and never to be replaced. (yes I DO have pics) :)

hugs~

Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Oh Karrie, you are not being disloyal or anything of the sort.

When my precious Tilei (GA) passed away...I was at the shelter 3 days later[/b] ...."just looking." And that's when I came home with special needs Krueger.

He looked very similar to T, but he was a talker and turned into the lap cat she wasn't and had a whole other personality that just filled up my empty heart.

I was just looking at the time and sat down on the bench in the free roam room. Krueger came and got in my lap at that time. The shelter workers were amazed as he never did that. I knew right then and there he was going home with me. Two hours later after having to go through a special interview...he was on his way home.

You and the kitty will know.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

My thoughts are still with you, Karrie. Like a lot of the others said, you will know when you meet a kitty that is bound to be a part of your life.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Morning Karrie - I believe that you will know if it is right. You will feel it. I wish you well today.

I know too that Maverick would approve, would feel that it is OK to love another. What a better way to honor his memory?

Take care.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Hi again, Karrie,
I had never even met Rusty "in person", but I just knew, in my heart, from reading about him in the DCIN blog that he was the right kitty for us. He is everything that Edward and I hoped for and more. And I know that Stu is happy that he paved the way for another diabetic kitty to have a furever home. Both Edward and I have "felt" Stu's presence: he is at peace and he knows that he is loved.

You will know when the right kitty comes along. You will simply "know". And the love that you have for Maverick and his love for you and Patrick and Nike will get stronger and stronger.

Be courageous and follow your heart.

Ella
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Karrie I think its just sooooo wonderful you are ready to open your heart to another cat this is what I did so many many years ago when I lost my very first cat to felv I went and got another to help fill the void I hope you find that special one Karrie
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Hi Karrie,

You will know when the time is right. But just in helping the shelter with the bg's and sticks I think is great. One of these days a kitty will come along and they will speak out to you. It must be very hard with the quiet at the house. You have a lot of love to give and when that day comes I know Maverick will approve. You would not be replacing him, or loving him any less. Just opening your heart to another that needs the good life that Maverick had.

No problem on the condo rental. I've been so busy I hardly have time to write one so look at it like your taking my place. :smile:

We love you Karrie and wish the best for you and DH.

Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Karrie: I'm late seeing this and you may have already made a decision. I agree with all...any time you have the chance to give your amazing love to another creature..it is the right time. We all know that there is never any replacing Maverick in your heart and that's not what it is about. It's about giving another soul a chance for a happy life being loved by someone who does have the biggest heart.

In 1995, Mike and I visited the SF breeder where we had gotten Teddi Bear because we so fell in love with the breed that we wanted another kitten. We picked out Gus but he was only six weeks old so we had to wait until he was 14 weeks to get him. In the ensuing time, our beloved Nik was diagnosed with liver cancer. On the day we were supposed to get Gus, we had to help Nik transition. I was not going to get Gus but the vet had a very stern talk with me and so we did. Thank God we did....he has been the most awesome kitty and he has brought so much love to our home and family. I cannot imagine life without him. So...when you find the one that tugs at your heart...go for it. Maverick will be so happy for you and he'll understand.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Thinking about you... there are not any other words i can contribute to what has already been said.. but you will just know.. like we all know when we look into those eyes & our heart cannot envision looking back.. on a life without.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Karrie, two things.

1. You are such a loving person. Your love will find a place to land, and with Maverick's blessing, too.
2. Rental shmental. We are family.

Hugs.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

I can't thank you guys enough. I didn't want to take away from Maverick's tribute yesterday. I wanted him to be remembered.

I went in to look at a couple kitties. I was told to keep my heart open and maybe other cats would end up finding their way in and that is what happened. Nickels was a doll and talked the whole time. But two other cats got a foothold. I still think of Nickel's and wonder about going back to get her, but if its not meant to be, it won't be. (Maybe she'll get adopted before I have a chance to get these two acclimatized). My dog is of course not interested in the others getting attention right now so we are loving her extra.

So I went in and visited with Whisket - the big chunker short hair that wants love all the time. He was in a 10x10 cage with others. Then went in the 20' x 10' cage and sat in the middle. A cat that had on my prior visit just stayed at the top of the cat post uninterested came and got cuddles. I felt an immediate bond. They say he is standoffish with a bit of a tude. But he let me turn him over and give him a belly rub too. This was Fergie (his name will be changed, we keep calling him a her). He's been there over a year.

Then when I was there the black one with no ears wanted love and again a heart tug (Victoria). DH already said he didn't really want a cat with no ears when we were looking at pictures and descriptions. Well she found her way into my heart. She's older than I was ready for too - 4 years. When I came home he asked why did I pick the no eared one and I said Victoria picked me, I didn't pick her. I had decided to take Nickels as I wanted a talker so badly and the thought of leaving Victoria behind made me cry. Turns out she's been at the shelter since July. And prior to that she was at the shelter quite a long time, got adopted for six months and returned in July because she was urinating outside of the box. She had a raging bladder infection and they didn't take her to the vet.

Victoria is exploring every nook and cranny and wants love when she wants it. She'll roll on her side for belly rubs and cuddles on her terms. Her hair is long and so silky. She drools when you pet her.

Patrick felt an immediate bond with Fergie. Wow, what a doll. He wouldn't come out of the spare room for hours. Pat went in and patiently petted him under our kitchen table (stored in the spare room LOL). A few hours later I hear lots of talking coming from the door of the spare room and he's looking out. What a scardie cat. Then an hour later I'm downstairs and I hear a ton of meowing and he's at the top of the stairs looking down. He talks!!!!! He slept on the bed with us a big part of the night. He's a big beautiful boy. He jumps up on the bed and lands with a thump and wakes us up. He's come out of his shell and he's like a big dog. When you call for Patrick or Nike he comes running. He wants love and cuddles so badly. It breaks my heart that he spent over a year there without anyone seeing how special he was. And he was only 8 months when he was brought in as a surrender. (Neutered on St. Patricks day too LOL).

So they are making the house lively again. I will still have a broken heart and grieve for Maverick. I miss him so much and would give anything to bring him back. These two look very different from Maverick. They are their own little personalities. Maverick's loss brought them here to be loved.

Nike is not liking that TWO cats get attention. She sulks if she sees us petting one. So we are showering her with love. Pet her first etc. I don't think the cats have ever seen a small dog before. No swats so far. Maverick couldn't jump and its been four or five years since he could. Its surreal to see Victoria jumping on things and walking on thin railings.

They are on 100% science diet dry food. I will keep them on this until they settle in for a week or so. Make sure they continue eating and using the litter box. I didn't get the house ready for a cat before I left. I didn't want my heart to be open and then not have a heart connection and come home to a cat ready house. So I've been spending time catproofing. Anything thats not catproof goes into the spare bedroom for now. I broke a sworski crystal that my dad gave me - four of the five parrots broke off when I dropped it. Going to have to bring it to the store for repairs.

I will respond personally to everyone. Just wanted to get in an update. Sorry for not posting last night. I wanted Maverick to have his last condo. Hugs to everyone.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

I am just all teary eyed for you!! Congratulations on the new additions. PHOTOS PLEASE!

(Karrie -- there is a page on the Yuku Lantus board for the memories of our GA kitties. Karen set up the reflecting pond so it would always be there for every kitty who has been part of this family. There's even a section for our civvies.)
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

I'm confuse! I've got Fergie figured out! Which is Victoria???? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Congratulations, Sweetie. Read the stuff I sent you...you will see that this in NO WAY WHATSOEVER minimizes what you have with Maverick! He would approve and take this as a great compliment! It's Nike you gotta bring on the bandwagon and that will come to!

lots of love,

xoC, A&J
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

What is the yuku board?

Thanks guys.

Victoria has only partial ears - she lost them due to frost bite. Updated it to make it easier to follow. Their shelter pictures do not do them justice.

Fergie (have to change his name) - hasn't done a happy tail yet. I think its the mats. Have to go to petsmart today to buy dematting brush toys etc.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Oh WOW! I'm SO happy for you!! You have honored Maverick in the best way possible. By giving your love to more kitties you acknowledge that loving Maverick truly meant something and it must continue.

I can't wait to hear more about them and see photos! That was awesome that Fergie (?) slept on the bed with you. Ah... I'm getting all teary-eyed too.

((((Karrie)))
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Oh gosh, how exciting that you gave two kitties a home! I can't wait to see pictures, too!
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Kerrie I am so happy for you, and Maverick is proud of you. They sound precious! Have fun picking out kitty stuff for your new additions. They will soon find out how lucky they were to pick you.

Yes I am teary eyed too. ;-)
I know your going to be busy so you don't need to reply to me. Just knowing that your house is full of life and you are happy is all I need. :smile:

Have a nice sunday and keep us informed on how it's going.

Karrie, I am so happy for you! Those two kitties waited in the shelter for their perfect family to come and find them. They are the luckiest two kitties in the world.

The Yuku board was set up for LL'ers to socialize. Click on the Lalalalantus link in my signature. You may have to sign up and wait a day or two to be confirmed.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Oh Karrie, I am so happy for you! There is never a right or wrong time to fall in love and it sounds like these kitties have captured your heart. That is wonderful..... cat_pet_icon cat_pet_icon
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Karrie, this is such great news! I hope that you, Patrick, Nike, Victoria, and Fergie will have a wonderful day together, getting acquainted. I know that Maverick is smiling.
Yes: pictures when you can!

Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

I am bursting with happiness for you and for those very lucky kitties.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

(((Karrie))))....this says so much about you and your wonderful heart that in all your aching and pain, you can open it to give love to two who so desperately need it. They have no idea what a wonderful life they have ahead of them. Thank you for saving them....I cried when I heard what they had gone through and how long Fergie had been there. Can't wait to see photos!
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

:YMHUG:

See Maverick...it took two kitties to replace you, you were that special to your bean.

Karrie I'm so happy for you.
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

I'm so happy :-D

Fergie's marking are gorgeous! and Victoria's face is beautiful!
 
Re: Condo rental - shelter visit today and tomorrow

Congratulations on your new additions! May you find all the love, joy and fun with these new ones and may the memory of Maverick live on through these two.
