Merry Christmas Friends!

This has been a very difficult past six months, what with losing my boys, Tigger and Bob.  They will always be in my heart.

Back in October, a friend of my husband and mine wanted to find a home for a friendly stray kitty who lived in her apartment complex.  We decided to open our hearts and our home to him.  We took him in and had his health evaluated; it checked out fine.  He is now a member of our family, and is fitting in well with the rest of our furbabies.  He and Marmelade are on the road to becoming friends.

Here's Sebastian.  The photo is very fitting, as he talks quite a lot!

My boy Tigger peacefully crossed the Rainbow Bridge yesterday; his little body just gave out from fighting Chronic Renal Failure for two and a half years.  His dad and I, and his vet were with him until the end.  Tigger's dad and I rescued him at 10 days of age, and we had nearly 20 years with him.   I will miss by baby boy more than I can possibly express.

Tigger and his favorite brother Marmelade

My brother Bob crossed the Rainbow Bridge yesterday.  We did not get along, but I feel very sad for Mom and Dad and my other siblings.  They all really love Bob and miss him.  One thing, he was a very laid back dood and I respect that.  May you fly free Bob!

One of Bob's favorite places to lie down, the window seat in the hallway.

Bob loved our brother Marmelade and vice-versa.
