In memory .....

Farewell Cola. (aka Tarties)
---------------------------------------------------
We have just lost our wonderful pussy cat, a very treasured member of our family, after 17 years together. We'll miss her so much but will continue to enjoy the memories that she helped us form.

Adieu

That is sad but you had wonderful 17 years!
I know they leave quite an empty space and it takes a long time to accept it.

@Manuela Photography: Thanks Manuela.

Yvon from Meerkerk, Netherlands

It's sad indeed. After 17 years it so natural to have him around you. I can imagine you miss him a lot. Take care.

Hi there. All my sympathy. My cat called fusco is just 6 months old and looks pretty much like yours.

Beyond tough. Our furry children are very special. Cola was a most handsome cat, Helen. My heart breaks for you... I too have been there.

Wayne from Melbourne, Australia

say not in grief that she is no more but live in thankfulness that she was =D
I can't say I know how it feels to lose a pet but I know how it feels to lose someone dear to you. Hang in there and celebrate the memories =)

@Wayne: Thanks for your kind words Wayne

So sad. The only consolation is that now she'll always be with you, wherever you are.
