Jackie, I am truly sorry, growing up all I ever had were cats, and several lived well past 12. I do remember how sad it is to see them deteriorate, knowing how they once were.

That said, know that she is in a place where she can drop tootsie rolls anywhere she wants to.

Many candles are lit here at the Hixson house for you and her.

Peggy said...

I'm so sorry you lost your little friend. Sending hugs and positive thoughts your way.

tina said...

Sorry sweetheart. I'm here for you if you need me. Candle lit for you and her. I know you loved her tremendously and I know she knew it.

Rox said...

Oh Jack, you know in your heart you gave Annie the best home any cat could ever dream of! She was the luckiest cat in the whole wide world to have such a patient and loving mama. I'm thinking of you and sending you the warmest hugs...

Intense Guy said...

Rox is quite correct. I know how much you sacrificed for Anne and skimped on yourself Jackie.

*Hugs you tight*

Its never easy to loose a family member. Perhaps Annie will have one of her 8 remaining lives somewhere else - being reborn as a kitten in Oregon, say... and growing up to sit in a windowsill looking toward West, Texas and never really knowing just why - but knowing inside she feels a special warmth when she does so...

Oh man!..I'm sorry darlin'.

Unknown said...

I am so, so, very sorry. I love my cats and it would about kill me if something happened to them. Bless you babe.

billy pilgrim said...

Goddess bless you all...you have no idea how much your you all mean to me...I like to think she instantly became a blue cat and is now one of the Goddess's favorites, riding around in her chariot...love you all..jac

Debra She Who Seeks said...

Wishing you heart's ease. And for SURE Annie is riding in style in the Goddess's chariot.

Pom said...

May this part of her journey be as filled with love as her time with you was. You're both in my thoughts and my heart.
Much love.

seems like it gets harder instead of better..took all of her toys and beds and food to babs..tina and prego think the kitty fairy came..how did one small cat acquire so many meeces? oh yeah, I got them for her. ha..I really am lonely without her.

Unknown said...

Jackie, I'm so sorry. I know how hard it is to lose a best friend. I did a ceremony to Bast when I had to have P.E. put to sleep but I was still sad for a long time. You gave her the best life a cat could have and she loves you for it.

The Future Was Yesterday said...

The most awful part of owning a treasure is when time and nature reclaim them for their own.

Platitudes ring hollow, even the most sincere and heartfelt, for nothing can heal over the hurt in your heart but time, and time moves with snails speed right now.

I've been thru two such experiences; both left a hole nothing would ever replace.

I leave you with my head bowed and my eyes tightly shut, to try to hold back the tears.

Hold tight to The Goddess.

yellowdoggranny said...

da'nl..you made me weep...thank you again..I'll try and start posting again..but hard to type when my eyes are full of tears..seems like all I do is cry..

Sorry to learn of your loss Jackie.
I have been through it & will have to go through it again.
It's never easy, but you were the best mommy to your Annie & she had a wonderful life with you.
If she could she would be saying "thank you for opening your heart & home to me."

Carebuzz said...

Jackie, I am soooooo sorry to hear about the loss of Annie. As you know I put my sweet Hanna down 5 weeks ago... I hurt so much and share in your pain. Please know you are not alone... unfortunately, I am here with you.. Hanna was/is my baby girl, I miss her TERRIBLY and in deep, deep sorry over her loss. I know you are in same place. I send pet angels your way to comfort you.

Many blessings,

Carol
