"Those of us who choose to surround ourselves
with lives even more temporary than our own
Live in a fragile and easily breached circle.
Unable to bridge its awful gaps,
We still would choose to live no other way.
Unable to comprehend life's necessary plan,
We must take our comfort in the knowledge that
Memory is the only true immortality."

3899.2 | To my Beloved Taffy | WILLEE::MERRITT | | Tue Aug 14 1990 13:09 | 9 |
| As I sit here with tears in my eyes...I am also remembering
my kitty "taffy" who also died about a year ago. This kitty
was very special to me because it was my Mom's who also
passed away. All I can say is that they are together now.
To all the kitty's in heaven...you are loved and remembered!

the graves of my 3 that I lost last year to FELV, Ruby, Tabby, and

freely in.

Sigh....It's only been about three weeks for Duke. We had
buried him in the woods next to our apartment building....and
now we're moving. And I have to leave him.
I still think I hear him meowing every now and then.

It's been nearly 5 months since Percy died. It still seems like
yesterday that I was playing "smush" face with him, letting him spread
out over my lap, the sofa etc and still have half his body hanging
over the edge ;-)
I'll never forget the day that I pulled him out of the hedge. I never
ever want to go through that ever again.
I still love you Percy wherever you are, I still miss you :-(
Put in a good word for Pookie if you have time from up there, she is
still unwell. I think her heart is broken.
Lisa plus loads of tears.

It was a year ago that I left Cattyshack in the middle of a blizzard,
carrying a 2 pound ball of red tabby fluff. I never would have
believed anyone (including mama cin) that told me I would actively hit
the show circuit, let alone have a Grand Premier! We've certainly had
our ups and downs this year, but it has all been worth it. Bailey,
sometimes when we are at a show and I am sitting there watching you
sleep, the love that I feel for you just overwhelms me and actually
hurts. I cannot imagine my life without you...

It makes me feel so good to know how much Bailey is loved and cared
for. I knew when I met you that YOU were a very special person.
hugs,
Mama Cin
|
3899.14 | Hi again Bailey | SALEM::DILLON_M | It's never to late | Thu Jan 24 1991 15:55 | 10 |
| The first time Diane and I went to Mama Cin's to "just look", the
first thing I saw was this little ball of red fluff. He was laying on
the living floor in a patch of sun light. I went over and patted him
and he looked up at me with those big eyes only baby kitties have. I
said I wanted this one! It was the first time I had ever seen an Exotic
in my life, but Cin told me that he was already taken and headed to
sunny Cal. He turned out to be Bailey! That was almost a year ago! I'm
glad he has such a loving home. Kai and Teddy send their hugs.

I am sitting here with a big smile on my face, Mike. I took a
picture of Bailey when I visited him during Sales Training, and
it is the EXACT scenario you just mentioned. And boy, did I fall
hard for that look... :')
|
3899.16 | Ohhhh Maaaa-leeen | SANFAN::FOSSATJU | | Thu Jan 24 1991 17:28 | 14 |
| Oh Marlene:
Such a beautiful tribute and I'm sitting here feeling sad and happy at
the same time. I remember coming back from disability and finding out
about your two babies and the heartbreak that you went through. All
those months without a kitty and then the Bailes came along - what a
little man - I still imagine him wearaing a bow tie for some reason and
smile when I think of it. You are both very special.
God bless,
Love,
Giudi

| I remember the 1st time I met Bailey, he was sitting on the arm
of MAMACINS sofa.He had this "angelic look on his face".. those
gorgeous eyes. I also remeber watching him and 1 little brown tabby
and white baby girl.. go on "safari" under MAMACINS Christmas Tree..
giggle ,giggle, giggle.. They were "quite a pair " from what
MAMACIN says..Ah yes tea,@ Cattyshack.. now where is my needle
and thread to er um finish my "pocket project"..

3899.18 | Happy Valentines DAY!! | AIMHI::MCCURDY | | Thu Feb 14 1991 13:43 | 16 |
| Happy Valentines Day, Pookie. I know this morning you were
nearby watching me give Happy and Preschie their Valentines
Day Presents. Although we miss you very much, I know in
my heart you are resting comfortably. I know that this
day was always very special to you,it was at a Valentines
Day Show that you got a very special treat. Allison was finally
"successful" at finding you the "perfect mate" and after the show
you and he traveled home to make some ROYAL BABIES!!
OH how proud you made her!!! And Pookie, I was always
very proud of you too. I know you have been
watching Preschie, and Yes she has done very well.
Happy misses you too, and you must admit, that
she is doing a great job with Preschie as well.
Happy Valentines Day, Pookie..!!! S.Y.S.
Love
Mummy, Happy, Preschie

today(well a little) but I know you are close by and happily and
peacefully watching over Happy and Preschie.

Love

| Perhaps Pat Brody is organizing a Birthday party for Pookie et al.
And they have another new member - an x-stray by the name of
Damian Slug Linebacker. Sadly he joined Pookie & Company last
night when his owner had him put to sleep at my vet's. He had
FLV.
Pookie, Kathryn, Torry and all the others - we miss you.

3899.21 | | AIMHI::MCCURDY | | Wed Mar 20 1991 12:53 | 7 |
| My heartfelt sympathies to your friend, Nancy..!!!
I can just see that now.. HRH "telling" Pat just
how SHE "envisions" this party.. I can also
HRH Telling Laura Ashley what type of party her
and others will be expecting Laura to create for them.!!!
;^)
Kate, Happy, Preschie

3899.22 | | TPMARY::TAMIR | ACMS design while-u-wait | Thu Mar 21 1991 15:24 | 6 |
| Nah, would only allow Laura to do the party decorations. Perhaps Pat could
wait tables for HRH. We have our standards!!
Rest well, Pookster, Happy is making you very proud!!
Sadly missed by Auntie Mary

3899.23 | | CRUISE::NDC | Putiput Scottish Folds DTN:297-2313 | Fri Mar 22 1991 08:03 | 2 |
| Waiting tables!! I would expect Pat to be the guest of honor!
|
3899.24 | Guest of honor?? And out do HRH? | TPMARY::TAMIR | ACMS design while-u-wait | Mon Mar 25 1991 10:57 | 6 |
| Now, Nancy, at any event HRH throws, who do you think is guest of honor??
Maybe Pookie will make her a MPE (Member of the Pookie Empire)...Dame Patricia
has a nice sound, eh? Come to think of it, I'm sure Pookie with knight(ess)
her. After all, Laura Ashley is just a tradesperson...Pat is a saint!!
Mary, who's probably in deep trouble with The Firm...
|
3899.25 | | AIMHI::MCCURDY | | Mon Mar 25 1991 13:06 | 8 |
| Mary, I can just see that now!!!... Pookie in her "Royal Robes"
"knighting Pat". I am sure this weekend she was looking
down with Pat and explaining to her..who is who at the
Cat Show in Concord.. I am also quite sure that
she proudly told Pat.. how well she trained Preschie"..
in the how to cop an attitude dept..:^).. and that her namesake
on earth was doing very, very very well..

The minute I heard my sister's voice on the answering machine, I knew
what she was going to tell me. She had to put Pascha down. He was her
17 year old black Persian, truly her baby boy. The years had been good
to him and he lived a long and happy life. When I think of Pottsie I
see him lying on his back in the middle of the family room wanting to be
in the thick of things, but not wanting to be bothered unless he chose to
be. Hopping up on the bed on Sunday morning while we read the paper and
drank coffee, he would sit and purr away, one paw touching the person
closest to him. The living room will be empty without him sitting regally
on his favorite afghan and the house will be silent without his talking
as he moved from one floor to the next. You will be missed Pascha, and
while another cat may be taken in to share their love and affection,
you can never be replaced...

3899.28 | | TENAYA::KOLLING | Karen/Sweetie/Holly/Little Bit Ca. | Thu May 02 1991 18:59 | 4 |

will still be good.

Thank you all for your kind thoughts. I am going to pass these along
to her. It's difficult to be supportive 3000 miles away (she's in
Lancaster, MA, I'm in S.F.). I spoke with her yesterday and she is
looking forward to getting another furface, probably a Himmie. I'll
watch the Sale/Adoption note, and if anyone has any Himmie kittens
available now or in the near future please contact me via mail at
SANFAN::BALZERMA.
