THANK YOUOctober 2nd 2012 5:57 pm[ Leave A Comment | 21 people already have ]
I wanted to thank everyone for all the kindness and support in dealing with the loss of my sweet, precious, beautiful boy. Thank you for everything - all the gifts, stars, rosies, pawmails, poems, photos, comments and also for diary entries.
Leave A Comment | 21 people already have You're so welcome and jeez! Please don't feel bad about anything at all. No one expects you to remember everything or to be there 100%. You've gone through a tremendous loss. Did you read my latest blog entry about how my furbrats helped me to laugh again? I hope so much that someday soon you'll find a new little one to help you laugh again. That little one won't replace Gumpy in any way, shape or form. But they will help to heal the wounds, at least a little, if not a lot. You're much stronger than you give yourself credit for, even if you don't feel like you are. You can't see it, but I can. BIG HUGS TO YOU JEN! Alex said it so well I dido her comment. These feelings will soon ease a little, you are already sounding stronger. As the spokesperson for GreenPaws I know I can speak for all of us when I say your welcome! It only seemed right to do something under the circumstances. The memory of Gump and Tigger will always live in this new tradition we've started. We are calling it the Tigger Gump Memorial Gift. Love ya. Hi Alex & Zoe, yes, I read that and I will come back to comment. Just not a lot of energy still. I have been looking for a new kitty, and I guess I'll know when it's right. I think Nadi will also really appreciate a little kitty with some fun and spunk. Great tradition there, Zoe and the GreenPaws group. Jen, you and Gumpy are in my heart. We've both suffered such great loss and it's going to be a long time before anything feels remotely like "normal" again. Thank you so much for mentioning me in your thank yous. Zoe, the Tigger Gump Memorial Gift is very special! (((hugs))) Love, Gina Sending lots of purrs and hugs. Lots of gentle hugs for you, Hi Jen, So glad we were able to comfort you. Have to agree with Lisa, a little furball would keep you busy and laughing. But it has to be on your timetable, of course! Zoe's gift is very special.Can't wait to see flowers in the spring. The blanket is gorgeous! WOW! Take care of yourself! Give your sweet Nadi a hug♥ Love always~ Eva Hi Jen ~ I'm glad you are doing okay considering your huge loss. I love that Nadia is in the photo you took of the beautiful blanket, we're so glad you like it. The Angel's Breath plants are gorgeous and will be a very nice way to remember Gumpy. I can imagine him rolling around in it and soaking up the sunshine. Purrs and big hugs to you. Love, Kelly Sending comforting purrs to you, and wowza, that blanket is pawsome! The plants are going to be beautiful when they grow up! What special gifts in remembrance of your sweet Gumpy. More purrrrrrrs to you, Gumpy's mom. I want to thank you for sharing Gumpy with us. We are keeping you in our purrs and thoughts always. xoxoxo Tasha Your loss will take time and no need to worry about thanking your friends, we all have been there one time or another. Just knowing we are here to help you heal a little. Each day you get through you heal a little more. Getting gifts that you can cherish and remember is a great gift of love for you and Gumpy. The ones Mom got for me she has displayed them loving with all of them earthly things, she remembers me and all of our friends, just as you always will... We are so happy we are friends and we can be here for you, we all continue to purr and pray for you. QT and Mom Loss is certainly never easy - it is hard to know what to say when you know how bad someone is hurting. The important thing is that you take care of yourself, and Nadia. Each day will get a bit easier to breathe. The blanket is beautiful! You can wrap yourself in Gumpy's paws any time now right? Take care & I also want to thank you for the advice you gave us personally about the slippery elm. I got some for Smitty & have put a pinch in his food, and he has not had an issue for a few days, so thank you & thank you Gumpy. purrs Thinking of you today. Sending you hugs and purrs. We think of you often... And though we didn't respond due to our meowmy not being here too much these past days, we were happy to see those tigers doing the win thing. Maybe you need a tiger furball...though purrhaps Nadia might find that a bit overwhelming, if not intimidating, MOL! Many hugs & purrs! We feel privileged to have known Gumpy for the short time we've had - a prince of a cat! Hello everyone and thank you! This reply is late; we've not been around here the last week or so - physically I'm just not feeling well in addition to emotionally still dealing with this loss. I knew there was going to be someone I forgot to thank. I forgot to thank Orange Ruffy and his mom Deb for the lovely diary about Gumpy sweet boy McGee. Sorry! Hi Tig & Smitty's mom, I'm glad the slippery elm seems to be helping. You know, that stuff really kept some of Gumpy's symptoms under control. I gave it to him most nights before we went to bed and he rarely vomited - which is very common in cats with CKD. He also had a very good appetite in spite of having advanced and ultimately end stage renal failure. It was great that this natural herb helped alleviate his symptoms, but it also made it appear that his disease wasn't as bad it was. It's still upsetting to me that I didn't get him into the vets earlier. But we can't know everything or do everything right. Hi WBS, yay for the Tigers. I think it would be cool if the Tigers could play the SF Giants in the World Series - it would be fun to have Tully's and Gumpy's teams in the World Series. We shall see... Thank you all again, for everything! xox Hugs and purrs for you! I think about you often and it's good to hear from you. I've been having the same issues around Tigger's death. His birthday and Gotcha Day were really sad for me. Please take good care of yourself. There is no time frame for the grief. Love, Gina Tigger's Mom Hi Gina, thank you! You are in my thoughts often too, as we are both dealing with these losses. Try to take care of yourself. Sending you caring hugs. Love, Jen Just here to check up on your mommy Gumpy. We are still purring for you Jen. The blanket looks wonderful. Thanks for the photo. Purring for the right kitty to put it's paw out and touch you. Us guardian angels will make sure it happens. Love, Molly,Misha and family |
