Thanks, I keep having a sneaky look on RSPCA site but they are really old and not in good nick at the moment.  It's good that they are in Foster Homes though and not in a pen in the centre.  Although being in one of their pens in nice cos they get fussed all the time by volunteers and staff.

Dawn, a nest, I'm not getting any birds  :naughty: :rofl:

They've not phoned me for my home visit yet but I'm not going to chase them at the moment as I'm busy with my early Spring clean that will probably take me until Christmas to finish.

Jo that's good that you might be getting oldies. :hug:

I am planning on taking on oldies once I am part time or retired.  It must be heartbreaking but wonderful at the same time to know that you were able to offer warmth, love & comfort to elderly kitties who are at the end of their days.

I am sure Bonnie will send more your way soon Mary  :Luv:

Thank you Jo, I keep wondering if it was Bonnie who sent them to me to end their lives in luxury :hug: :Luv2:

Everything happens for a reason, so God knows what is for me next ;)

Mary

Well I think we're all hoping that next, you get a healthy and happy little oldie under the EARS scheme, and that you have years of comfy snuggly days and nights ahead.    :) :hug:

Heck, I haven't been on here for a while.. Mary, I am so sorry to hear about Kitty.

What a lousy time you have had.

As everybody else has said, you gave her a loving home in her old age and a peaceful painless end to her life, she couldn't have asked for more.

Bless you. Take care.

Jo

Mary, I do feel your pain, I think most of us have had to let a beloved furbabe go over the years, it never gets any easier, but you did all you could for Kitty and her Sister. Please just believe you did everything you could for them both and they knew they were properly loved at the end. :care: :care: :care:

There will be another cat to fill your heart again. Can't remember who said, and may be paraphrasing, but you don't love the ones you have lost any less, your heart just expands. (Sure it was put far more elegantly than that),

You take care, Sweet, and if you need anything just call or pm me. :hug: :hug: :hug:

Oh Mary!!

I'm really sorry to have read this and I apologise for not reading this sooner. Kitty was a lovely cat and knew that she was loved by you and all of us here at Purrs. Winnie thought of her very highly and sends you loads of head butts, kisses and purrs.

:candle:

I know Winnie sent a candle, but here is mine to you and Kitty.

Play hard at the Rainbow Bridge Kitty. You are loved by all on here...and your Mummy is a wonderful, special woman who I like very much.

Thanks everyone, you are brilliant  :hug:

You can rely on us Stuart ;)

I've just got to keep on remembering that everything happens for a reason.  Everyone I have lost last year and Kitty this year, they all had to go, to stop their pain. 

We all know it's very hard and we know it does get easier and if it wasn't for us putting ourselves through this pain, there would be hundreds of less loved cats on this Earth and at The Bridge.

God Bless Us All  :hug: :hug:

I saw this yesterday Mary but didn't know what to say and still don't.  I'm so very sorry for your loss but grateful on Kitty's behalf that she was so loved by someone who knew when to perform that last act of kindness.

It's very sad that your time together was so short but it was such real quality time.  In tears as I type Mary; naturally.  My heart goes out to you but I'm so glad to know someone who was prepared to take on the challenge of caring for 2 beautiful oldies.  Bless you Mrs.  You're one in a million  :cuddle:

Thanks everyone, I'm so glad she got close to me in the last few months and these last few days when she couldn't walk I know I had to let her go.

Here are some pics I took of her laid on me and one where I even had her dish of food on my chest for her  :hug:

Dear Mary, I am so sorry to hear this very sad news.  It is really heartbreaking.  I can only echo what the others have said.  You gave Kitty a wonderful, loving home when she needed it most, and cared for her and looked after her in a way that no one else had.  She knewt the love you gave her and responded to it. 

Thank you for all that you did for Kitty, and for your braveness in letting her go when she needed to. 

Rest peacefully little Kitty, you and your Meowmy are in my thoughts and prayers xx
