Our pets become part of the family and leave a big hole in our hearts when they die. <br /><br />Stimpy's lack of voice may have had something to do with starting life as a feral kitten. I noticed that our litter of feral kittens this summer never made a sound in any circumstance - presumably an instinctive way of avoiding dangerous notice in the wild.Perpetuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214396019726161983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8299409348701300460.post-62061158911903177372011-10-13T09:13:55.518+01:002011-10-13T09:13:55.518+01:00Sorry to hear that David.....we are still missing ...Sorry to hear that David.....we are still missing our ancient cat who died in the summer....we sometimes actually feel that he is still with us supervising the dog!

We loved them to bits, when the inevitable happened and they passed, we said never again, as we missed them so much.<br /><br />Now we have five, plus a lodger and several semi-feral ones who inhabit our garden. One night last Christmas I counted nine around the house.<br /><br />We love them all, but know that we will have heartache eventually for them all. Never again!UKViewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18114944341930758335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8299409348701300460.post-66345634535711857712011-10-12T18:41:00.202+01:002011-10-12T18:41:00.202+01:00Sorry to hear this sad news.

It is a very painful thing to lose a companion of such long standing.<br />My thoughts and prayers are with you and also with her feline companion who will feel her loss too.<br />Families are made up of many constituents, all have their place and leave big empty spaces when they leave.<br />Blessings.Ray Barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09209429097744326143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8299409348701300460.post-5466739276858812152011-10-12T12:25:41.113+01:002011-10-12T12:25:41.113+01:00Sorry to hear it.Sorry to hear it.Gurdurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13832862073297092984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8299409348701300460.post-17318175502047088422011-10-12T12:12:03.131+01:002011-10-12T12:12:03.131+01:00Sorry to hear that.
