Wow! I have not had anything to say in this diary since Dec 2011?
Time goes by shocking fast!
My 10th life is very much like my brother, Alfie's. He is more than my brother he was and always will be my best friend.
We are always together..joyful in our 10th life; helping out with newcomers. My bro and I have a weakness for the little ones...We always make sure they get oriented here and are never alone..

Now something truly momentous happened that I want to record in my diary. Samoa
has chosen me to be Angel DREAMBOAT #20.We are now a family of DREAMBOATS!
How pawsome is that?
Samoa writes of the triple crown of Catster honors~Cat of the Day, CAT OF THE WEEK and DIARY OF THE DAY. You know what, Samoa?
I would say there is quadruple crown because being a DREAMBOAT is just as much of an honor.
Now Alfie and I are both quadruple winners!

Samoa, you have made us very happy angels. And you have made our Mom all misty. You are not only lovely, you have a very big heart.

Love always,
Wally

 

Dedicated to my angel friends-we all left earth much too- soon!

Today is our friend's Misha Rainbow Bridge Day
This is for your mom:

“We who choose to surround ourselves
with lives even more temporary than our
own, live within a fragile circle;
Easily and often breached.
Unable to accept its awful gaps,
We would still live no other way.
We cherish memory as the only
certain immortality, never fully
understanding the necessary plan.”
― Irving Townsend


love you dear friend!

My bro, Alfie wanted me to send a shout out to a new friend.

nip concoction made by Dude K of DA TABBIES O TROUT TOWNE

Hi my friends,
So the other day I was a DDP and I totally missed it. I was glad cause I really love more visitors to my page and that's what happens when one is a DDP!
Then this morning mom received a notification. Wally♥Forever Loved is one of today's featured diaries..." She actually thought it was an error since I have written no diary entries since the first DDP!
But there is me on homepage. I don't know why, but I am purring that somehow out of this Wild Child will find a forever home by a catster family.
Some of you have written that her name is unfortunate. I so agree. Especially since Best Friends writes that she is a total lovebug! She is playful like a kitten. Did you know that she comes from the same horrific shelter as our friend, Muppet!
Yes, this little sweetie had a horrible start in life but she
is a happy girl
You know what my Christmas wish is?
I wish this sweet girl a family of her own!
Would you help me spread the word? Would you please do a diary entry about her? You can snag her picture from my diary.
Ask your friends to do the same?
I know when we put our hearts and minds into something we can make it happen.
Let's find Wild Child a loving forever home!

Love always
Wally

UPDATE
Wild Child live

 

Honorary member of my family

Her name is
Wild Child and she lives at Best Friends Animal Society and she was sponsored in my honor.
Wild Child came from the horrible case of cat neglect in Pahrump, Nevada - where along with hundreds of other cats, she was lonely and suffering. (I think this must be the same place where our sweet pal Muppet was rescued from.
Why her? Because she has the sweetest face. She is playful as a kitten. A love bug who needs a home and people to love her.
I hope I am making a tiny bit of difference in her life.
I will purr and purr that she will find a loving forever home.
Of course mom wishes she could scoop her up and make her a real member of the family..if only she could.


Thank you all for keeping me in your hearts.
I love you always
Wally

 

Forever in my heart

It is a gorgeous sunny day today. So very different from Dec 1, 2007 the day my precious Wally left me. It had been the 1st snowstorm of the season and my Wally and I were stuck in a taxi on our way to an Emergency Vet clinic.
It was almost a total whiteout, the taxi weaving all over the road. My Wally wrapped in his pink Hello Kitty blankey in my arms.
His eyes were fastened on mine. I kept whispering hang on sweetheart. Please hang on..But I watched the light go out of those wonderful eyes. I helplessly watched my beloved Wally slip away. The next 3 days were spent at this computer.
The love and support I got here got me through one of the most horrible times.
Today I promised myself no tears. I want to celebrate his life.
The wonderful serendipity that brought him into my life.
Yesterday on a whim, I bought a scratch card lottery.
I won $25.00. I almost never gamble. But you can't win if you don't try, right?
Anyway,Today I am putting that money to good use by sponsoring
a cat from Best Friends Animal Society in loving memory of my precious Wally.
I love you Wally~you live in my heart forever.

Thank you sweet angel Cleo and family and King Henry for thinking of my baby today.

 

Thank you for remembering me today.........

8 years ago today I was born in the neighborhood.Of course I don't remember but that's what the note said. The note that was in the sealed box along with my 6 week old or so self.It didn't say much else, except that I had been born on April 1 2003.
The box was left outside a pet store where my mom would happen to come by that very morning.
For the rest of my life I would hate boxes. One of the few things I hated.
I was a lover. I loved everyone and everything.
I adored my mom most of all.
My grandma was in the late stage of Alzheimer's Disease.
I became her living doll. She would cradle me in her arms for hours on end. I would purr and purr. I helped her feel calm.
Mom was amazed at my tolerance. She expected me to be a crazy kitten but for some reason I will never know~I was always calm.

As I mentioned I had a special connection with mom.
I always felt it when she was sad or not feeling well and I would be there to lick her tears away or just press my warm little body against her. I would stare into her eyes and with one gentle paw I would stroke her face.She would whisper,"Where did you come from, Wally Bear?" Cause you are no ordinary kitty! You can see into my soul....."

By my second year it was clear that I had lots of health problems.Some mysterious birth defects and by age 3 I had IBD.
I was at the vet often.They would say, here comes Wally for a visit at the spa. They loved me and treated me special.
They took my blood often, I had x rays and acupuncture without
complaints.
I never complained.
NEVER!

You know what I loved?
Going strolling in my stroller.(there is a slide show on my page)
Just mom and me.
I loved the feel the sun on my fur. Hear the birds sing.
A kitty in a stroller was an usual thing to see in Montreal,so people stopped us all the time. Oh look at the little tiger,(I have a gazillion stripes) they would exclaim! And I would purr with joy.
After I was gone nobody liked the stroller.
Alfie especially~he would stand in front of it and cry piteously.
So mom gave it to an old lady who had to bring her sick kitty to the vet for injections everyday. She was so happy (she had been using a shopping cart!) She blessed my mom. Mom smiled sadly and said, don't thank me, thank my Wally Bear.
You can call this my last good deed. MOL

I hope those of you who have met me here after I left earth, know me a bit better now.
Thank you for the birthday gifts but you know what?
I really prefer comments. If you stop by my page, please look
at my cute pictures;
Isn't my page pretty? My mom found the pretty flowers but she still has problems with the rest so once again sweet Anna's mom
came to the rescue.
Got to fly now......
I am going to lunch with my family and Calvin plus a whole bunch of pals.
Later we are going bowling. Maybe if you listen carefully, you will hear us!

Love always
Wally

 

Thank you for the lovely surprise!

Wow! I am a DDP today! Thank you HQ and thank you my sweet awesome friends for reading my diary.

My mom cannot sleep so I have her to type for me.
Ollie and his woes is on our minds.
I wish you could have seen how absolutely crazy he was with that huge and heavy bandage on his poor hurt paw.
The graft won't take if he doesn't rest.
But how do you get an agitated kitten to rest.
He thinks all his problems and pain is due to the BANDAGE!
So in his minds, if he takes it off, he will be OK!
Someone suggested the e-collar.
But I think it will only make things worse.
Something else for him to try to take off.
He is a tough and determined little guy who cannot understand what is best for him.
The thought of his being in a cage breaks our hearts but what else can we do?
Anyone has any ideas?

On a totally different note. Today is my lovely friend,
Mercy's first birthday anniversary at the Bridge.
You can be sure there is a big party on CLOUD 9!
I also know how hard firsts
are on parents. Just how how difficult it is to accept that
we are gone from their world....
Our Moms miss us so and I know Mercy's dad misses his "girlfriend."
Wish we could have stayed with you longer
on beautiful earth.

Love always
Wally

PS. Thank you for the rosies but please, please stop!
I don't want to sound ungrateful. I know you guys like to give, I do too! But I would really prefer comments on my diary,or even on my pictures?
Look at my baby pix, wasn't I cute?
Reminds mom what a good baby I was. On the naughty scale, I was
0 and Ollie is right off the charts at 11. MOL

 

Catster Joy!

Hi my pals,
It has been such a long time since I had anything to meow about and my last 3 entries have been sad ones.

Today I am overjoyed to see my wonderful handsome pal on homepage.
Alex is a long time friend and he really deserves some catster love and fame!
Not only that but the beautiful Samoa has put him on her
dreamboat list!

Another long time pal, handsome Mouse (Mom considered catnapping him once
MOL) is also a dreamboat!

Way to go Alex and Mouse! I love you dudes!
To those humans who have gone to FB cause catster is just too sad?
Well, it's not!
There is so much love and joy here too!
Love always
Wally

 

Sad news and purrs are needed.

Hi my friends.
As my earth bro Milo wrote tonight in his diary, sweet Kaci Sunshine
is in hospital. Her kidneys are failing.
Please keep her in your purrs. My mom made a picture. It is my main one now. If you would like to use it just click on it and save it to your computer. Upload to yours. No need to make it your main picture,
as long as you tag it purring 4 Kaci.

More bad news for the Texas Wild Bunch
Their precious Kira
left earth in her mom's arms.
So much sorrow for one family to bear.
We are so worried about this family. We love them so much. They are struggling financially and emotionally.
I am worried about mom Teri. I don't know how much more she can take.
Love always and endless purrs
Wally

Happy Update

Forgive me for sounding alarm bells. Kaci is at home. She does need purrs but she is not as sick as I feared.

 

Oh no, another friend got here much too soon.

One of my first friends here at catster has joined us today.
The adorable and sweet Mercy
She had been ill for a while but once again I was blindsided!
Mercy was just nine years old. Her parents adore her. She is a favorite girl in this big family...

She is surrounded by so many friends now.....I will give her some time before I go to chat with her.

I need a fluffy cloud to just stop and remember all the fun times
She always made me laugh.
I had a little crush on her but she gently told me her heart belonged to her daddy.
It seems so long ago now. So many heartbreaks ago.

Her beautiful brother Milo who shared a birthday with me and died so suddenly a month before me.

Our tragedies sweet Syd; Oh my poor love bug bro, Alfie, who still can't understand how he got here.

Sometimes it is so difficult to be just happy and carefree.
I thought angels didn't feel so much sorrow but we do....

I am sending love and purrs to her heartbroken family.


Love always~
Wally
