Rich,

Losing your pet is the only bad part of pet ownership.
It hurts like you have lost a piece of your heart.
The true definition of unconditional love is a beloved pet.

Last year my mother was in hospice.
She could no longer speak or move.
I brought her Ragdoll cat up to see her who at the time
was only 7 months old. It was like the cat knew, she laid next
to my mother's side and never moved.
I whispered in my mother's ear that Lily was next her.
My mother struggled, but got her hand to pet the cats head just one
last time. It was the last time my mother moved.
My mom passed in September.

Lily now lives with me (and my other 3 cats).
Sometimes at night, I will cry because I miss my mother.
Lily will come and put her paw on my cheek.
I swear she knows and it always makes me feel like somehow
through that cat, my mother is touching my cheek.

I have tears just typing this.

I am truly sorry for your loss. I 100% understand the pain of losing such a great love.
XO
