You blessed our lives for 20 years, were always a joy, and the "best boy that ever lived." We loved you with all our hearts. We will miss you more than words can express.
BTW, I have a few burlap bags available for murdering cats. Here is how we do it: step 1) place the goddamned creatures into the bag. step 2) place the bag into a barrow of water. step 3) after five or so minutes, pull the bag out and throw it in the trash.
there IS a difference between wild, feral cats and domesticated, house-broke cats.
I fed a feral cat for almost a year from the time I first saw him when he was about 3 months old. He used to like to fetch a small piece of rolled up paper. One night, as I sat there, he came and slowly climbed up in my lap, and began purring and kneading my legs. He did it many times after that. He disappeared a year and two days ago, and I searched for him for 10 months. I'm still not over him, so I can only imagine how much more you are hurting, christine, and my heart breaks for you. Not a sparrow falls without God noticing. All tears will be wiped away when Jesus comes back, and He "told" me a long time ago I would see a beloved dog again, so I trust we will see our cats again, too. Until then, hold tight the memories of your well-loved boy, cry as much as you need to, trust God to make you whole again, and know we're all pulling for you [or at least, MOST of us].
I asked for a sign as I looked out into the back yard. I asked for the honeysuckle tree [not bush, TREE, which is most beautiful btw...I love that thing] to sway. It was a very still day and nothing was moving, but no sooner did I ask, but the tree started to sway as if a big gust of wind had hit it. I was quick to notice nothing else was moving, just the honeysuckle tree. I thought wow, maybe it was just a coincidence, so would You mind doing that again? The tree swayed and the branches bent over to within about a foot or two of the ground, more than I had ever seen, even in the biggest ice storms, and still, no other trees were moving. I said, okay, just one more time, to be sure....and nothing happened. Immediately it came to mind, "O ye of so little faith," and I thought okay, God, I believe you.
