"The reason Tink died...she was 100% overweight. In other words, twice what she should have weighed. My fault. I should have been better about keeping her out of the food. Now, because of my neglect to do that, she died. She would probably still be alive t"
"Trying to raid her food bag. It was funny to watch her. Tink would stand in front of the door like this, pull it open slightly with a paw, then try to go through only to have her chubby side catch the door half-way through. She had to go back and forth se"

Arrival Story: Tinker Bell was an "accident", sort of. Her previous owners had a cat (named Chee-Chee) that had kittens every 6 months. I was looking for a kitten, so I got her when she was 8 weeks old. I didn't know anything about BYBs or bad breeders back then. A friend of mine used to own Tink's brother, Kitty-Boy, who looked like a Siamese with long hair.
Bio: She would come like a puppy anytime I called her! She would try to make me feel better when I was sad. She loved me unconditionally, as I loved her. She would get mad at me sometimes, but she would never hold a grudge for more than an hour or two. She gained too much weight in 2006, and died of liver dysfunction on September 15th. She was buried the next day, and a few days later a cross was put over her grave. She is loved and missed by all who had the privilege of meeting her. There is hardly a day goes by that I don't think of her, and miss her. Sometimes I miss her more than other times. She was a friend, a true and loyal friend. I miss her terribly. This poem probably most accurately describes how much I miss her----
If tears could build a stairway
If tears could build a stairway
and memories a lane.
I would walk right up to heaven
and bring you back again.
No farewell words were spoken.
No time to say "Goodbye"
You were gone before I knew it
and only God knows why.
My heart still aches with sadness
and secret tears still flow.
What it meant to love you.
No one can ever know.
But now I know you want me
to mourn for you no more.
To remember all the happy times
life still has much in store.
Since you will never be forgotten
I pledge to you this day.
A hallowed place within my heart
is where you'll always stay.

This may sound strange, and I'm sure that some won't believe it. But, today my human went outside, asked God if she could "see" m for a moment. She saw something move way up in the sky, like a cloud, but it was there for one or two seconds and then disappeared. Then, I was with her. She could feel my spirit. I talked to her, not with words, but she just knew what I was saying. I stayed with her for a few minutes, then told her that I had to go now. She said "bye, Tinker Bell" and felt my presence go back up to Rainbow Bridge. Though she didn't "see" me with her earthly eyes, God granted me to visit her for a few minutes after she requested it and she "saw" me. It really comforted her. She was looking for assurance that she will meet me once again someday - that my spirit is still there even though my body isn't - , and God gave her the assurance.
The renter's cat Sugar (I have a picture of her on my page, last picture) had 5 kittens 4 days ago. One died yesterday. Two look like Sugar. My human loves kittens
