You did a wonderful thing to provide her with a good home in her last days, after both her owners passed away last year. You gave that love back to nature. She was a blessed creature to have been loved for so long.<br /><br />Anonymous #1Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904990175885851041.post-30459376965850550152014-08-18T18:27:34.380-04:002014-08-18T18:27:34.380-04:00mmm...hard day...i sat with my cat as she passed.....mmm...hard day...i sat with my cat as she passed...hard to believe its been almost a year and a half since then...they are such a part of the family...Brian Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722940075884718007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904990175885851041.post-92063132777348647702014-08-18T13:14:54.423-04:002014-08-18T13:14:54.423-04:00I am thinking tenderly of all of you.I am thinking tenderly of all of you.Ms. Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09776404747858099919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904990175885851041.post-74123684390231280592014-08-18T12:40:41.210-04:002014-08-18T12:40:41.210-04:00With recovery I am able to be more present with my...With recovery I am able to be more present with myself and what is happening around me.
