Thank you for your heart felt messages. It is shocking to believe Skippy is gone. I did not expect this and it truly is devastating. I have lost pets before but Skippy was special, maybe because we had a bond knowing that I was there to help him through his diabetes. He never flinched when I pocked especially in the beginning trying sometimes 5-6 times a day. He knew when to get tested sat on my lap and would wait. He knew I had to get the syringes ready before feeding him and he waited patiently. He brought millions of smiles and happy feeling over the 13 years he was with me. I do have to confess I had a premonition 2 weeks ago when I got laid off that he was going to die can't tell you why but he showed no signs of his illness. I do not know exactly why he passed but I do know he took his last breath lying on my chest. I can not believe this but in time I will be better. I still feel him around me crazy but my heart flutters when this happens...

I want to thank this Board that was the saving grace of Skippy in 2009. Thank you all for jumping in and assisting, guiding and helping me when I was scared. Skippy was an old timer. And if he could speak he would thank you also.

Thank you Birten
I tried posting a picture but the pixels were to big - sorry

((((Birten))))
I am so glad that I was around with Alex to hear the stories of all of your adventures. These are priceless treasures and will always keep Skippy close to you. And oh what stories he'll be telling all of our kitties that are GA!

I am so very sorry for your loss. You gave Skippy a beautiful life and one that most kitties don't ever experience and one day you will be able to remember all of these times with smiles through your tears.

Fly Free Traveling Boy, Sweet Skippy....
