It breaks my heart to write these words. Jack and Jane's beloved Karre will be setting out on his final journey on Saturday. He has been struggling recently with a serious illness and his condition has declined. Karre has let Jack and Jane know that he is tired of his struggle and is ready to rest, and they have made the most difficult decision to respect his wishes and to help him cross peacefully tomorrow. He was able to spend some time in the sun in his South African garden today, gently bathed in the tears of his beloved family. Karre's GA friends have gathered near the bird house in the garden to make ready for the arrival of the Emperor. His GA brothers, Lucci and Beni, will be there to show him the way. I know that all of the other Bridge kitties will join Bear Man, Emily, and Teddy in Cape Town tonight to make sure that Karre lands gently among friends. It would mean a great deal to Jack and Jane if everyone could send good thoughts and prayers to keep Karre company on his journey.

Safe passage, Karre. You are loved.

On No! Beautiful Karre. I am so sorry ((((((((((Jane and Jack)))))))))))

This is so heartbreaking. I will be thinking of you, and wishing Karre and easy crossing.

A candle will be burning in my house tonight for The Emperor Karre.
 
I'm SO SO sorry it's Karre's time to cross. He has lived an Emperor's life full of kindness, care and love...fly free sweet boy.

Remember, he's not gone, you just have to hug him differently...

BIG HUGE HUG JACK/JANE/FAMILY,
 
I am so sorry. I hope that my Remy, also a solid black kitty, will be there to greet him - the two new kids. Remy left me to go to the bridge just yesterday afternoon. Totally unexpectedly. My heart aches for all of us. :-(
 
(((((Jane & Jack)))))
I am so sorry to see this news about Karre. I delighted in your stories about him and his imperial presence. The photos you've posted of your garden makes that special place very real to those of us who are a half of a world away. No doubt, Karre will find peace and contentment in the garden and with his many companions at the Bridge. My heart goes out to you all.
 
Jane and Jack, I'm so sorry to hear this. Karre was a special kitty and will be missed. He had a wonderful life with you. Sending prayers and hugs.

Fly free sweet Emperor Karre.
 
(((Karre))) We will miss you ~ wishing you a safe voyage across the Rainbow Bridge...
Thinking of you Jane and Jack. This is such a difficult thing to do but it is the final gift you give to Karre.....
May all your memories comfort you in the days and weeks to come ~ they will be with you forever ... bring you sweet thoughts of your boy.
 
I am so sorry to hear that it is Karre's time.

Remember to give him that snot halo as he passes. It's the best sendoff you can give him until you meet again.

{{{{{Jane and Jack}}}}}

What a difficult day as well as this last month or so....
(((((((((Jane and Jack and Karre)))))))))
I am so sorry this time has come. I cry with you as you have to say so long to your sweet boy.
Wishing safe passage for Karre and will light a candle.
 
(((Jane and Jack))) I am so very sorry! My heart and prayers go out to you. He had the best life there with you and jack. I will light my GA kitty's candle for Karre.
 
Jane I am so sorry to read this. It is especially poignant for me, having just lost Mannie last month to multiple health issues. I know the tears are flowing for you and your family. I so hope that all the good memories will be of comfort to you. He will always be near: in your heart, and your minds eye. We will all miss you Karre, never to be forgotten.

Fly free sweet Karre. Mannie will be there to make sure you land softly. We will light a candle for you to guide you on your journey.
 
Dear (((((Jane and Jack and Karre's Pride))))),

We are sad that it is Emperor Karre's time to make the journey to the Bridge. He will find many, many old friends there to greet him. Lighting our candle here tonight to help him find his way. Fly free, brave Karre, and watch over your family. You are much loved.

Ella, Edward, Rusty, and Stu(GA)

I am so sorry to hear about dear Karre's time to cross the Bridge. Sending thoughts and prayers for a safe and gentle crossing. I've missed the Caturday Condo's and have been wondering how you are have been doing. Many hugs and vines to you all.
 
I'm so sorry to hear about the infamous and very special Karre. My condolences.

All the Rainbow Bridge kitties are welcoming Emperor Karre with open and caring paws.

May the sweet memories of Karre comfort you during this difficult time.

Hugs
Tena
 
((Jack, Jane, Karre & family)) I am so sorry to hear about sweet Karre's decision to cross the Bridge. You are such good beans to carry out his wishes. Tears fall even across oceans. May Karre continue to watch over you all from beyond the Rainbow Bridge. Fly free, sweet Karre. You will be missed by all who know you.

((((Jane and Jack))) It is with great sadness that I read that Emperor Karre is moving to a different kind of palace. I'm glad he got a sunny day in the garden with his family and the African Pride. We miss you and will be having dinner with many candles tonight. Fly freely Karre, you travel with love following you to the bridge.
 
Nooooooooooo! Oh, damn, no.
(((((((Jack and Jane))))))),
I just felt my heart break, literally. I was blessed enough to meet you when Karre fell off the wagon and came back for more juice last year. As twisted as it sounds, his misfortune was my blessing, and a blessing to so many others who were not here for your first time dancing. I can't believe I'm reading this, as Karre seemed larger than life to me, like one of the Immortals. I can't begin to fathom how you are feeling. Please know that I am with you in spirit across the miles.

Fly free, sweet Emperor. You will live forever in so many hearts.

Carl
 
((( Jack and Jane )))

I'm so sorry to see this. I know no kitty could have asked for a better life but it doesn't make it easier to say Goodbye. Karre is known and loved by so many. Hugs and tears for you and yours.
 
Remember it is a badge of honor to send him on his journey with a snot halo! Fly free sweet Karre, may you soar high and wide and land softly.

You are much loved and will be sorely missed.
 
(((Jack Jane) I'm so sorry it is time for Karre to cross over. He will be joined by so many other GAs and welcomed once again whole.

And God asked the feline spirit
Are you ready to come home?
Oh, yes, quite so, replied the precious soul
And, as a cat, you know I am most able
To decide anything for myself.

Are you coming then? asked God.
Soon, replied the whiskered angel
But I must come slowly
For my human friends are troubled
For you see, they need me, quite certainly.

But don't they understand? asked God
That you'll never leave them?
That your souls are intertwined. For all eternity?
That nothing is created or destroyed?
It just is....forever and ever and ever.

Eventually they will understand,
Replied the glorious cat
For I will whisper into their hearts
That I am always with them
I just am....forever and ever and ever.

Fly free Emperor Karre, land softly, you will be missed. wings_cat
 
(((((Jane and Jack))))) -

I'm so terribly sorry to hear this and am at a loss for words. Karre was so very fortunate to find people who loved him so much and did everything they could for him. Praying for a peaceful crossing for him and sweet memories to brighten your days and nights ahead.

BIG HUGS -

Libby (& Hershey, too!)
 
Jane, I'm very sorry about Karre. He sure was a well loved kitty and had a wonderful life with you.
Although you won't be able to hold him in your arms, you will hold him in your heart forever. ♡

(((((Many hugs to you.)))))
 
Fly Free of pain and cares, Emperor Karre. Your subjects will honor your passing as they did honor you in life.

((((((((((Jack and Jane)))))))))) we will be grieving with you tomorrow.

(((((Jane and Jack)))))

This is such heartbreaking news for all of us so privileged to have known the Emperor. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all as you help him cross. Another LL legend will join all our other GAs missed by all.

Fly free, sweet Karre. You will be forever loved and missed
 
Very sad news. I feel almost as if Karre was one of my own, having read so many of Jane's lively and vivid descriptions of his progress through diabetes and remission and life in general. He was much loved by FDMB and will be be missed. Cyclone and Salem will be waiting for him. Big hugs to Jack and Jane.
 
So sorry to read this. My thoughts will be with Jack, Jane and Karre. My Sara will be there to greet him too.
Fly free Sweet Karre and land softly. (((Jack))) (((Jane)))
