This site helped me back in 2008. Here I am once again with the pain and the hurt. It has been 6 days since his unexpected passing. I rescue several cats but some just tug at your heart strings. I only had him for 4 1/2 short years, but in that time he was loved and spoiled rotten. I have his picture on my desk at work. The vet made me paw print impressions and gave me a lock of fur for his remembrance book. I have never had a pet cremated before but Oscar will be and his ashes will return home to set on the shelf. So many things I will miss. His big yellow eyes, his grouchy meow, his outstreatching paw to pat my lip telling me to wake up in the mornings. I’m sure going to miss you Oscar (aka Misker or Whisker)
Gotcha date May 2014 to January 16, 2019.

Hi, sissycat, please permit me to offer you my sincerest sympathies in the physical loss of your beloved Oscar. Losing a companion is never easy regardless of the circumstances or how long we are blessed with the privilege of their company. Losing a companion so suddenly can intensify the grief.

Sissycat, as you are too painfully aware adjusting to the physical absence of a beloved companion is one of the most painful experiences we can have during our earthly journey. Each of our companions have their own special place in our hearts, and each time they precede us to the angels they take a part of us that only belongs to them to hold onto until it is our appropriate time to join them in eternal joy. Likewise, they leave with us many treasured memories to hold onto as we continue our earthly journey. Love is eternal, sissycat - - the love bond you and your beloved Oscar share is not restricted to time and space as know it in this earthly realm. As you continue your grief adjustment journey I hope you will know that your beloved Oscar's sweet Living Spirit is always and forever a part of your heart and memories - - he is always and forever a heartbeat close to you.

Sissycat, I know all too well from first hand experience that when our hearts are entrenched in deep grief there are no adequate words in any language that can soothe the searing pain of sorrow. It doesn't matter if our grief journey is our first experience or our thousandth - - each one is uniquely painful because our relationships with each of our companions is uniquely special. Still I hope the words I share with you will somehow offer you some measure of comfort, support, encouragement, and hope as you travel your grief adjustment journey.

Thank you so much for honoring us in sharing your beloved Oscar with us. Please know you are in my thoughts anad prayers, sissycat, and please let us know how you're doing.

Peace and blessings,
moon_beam

In heaven's perfect garden there is no grief or pain, and all of God's creation join the angels' sweet refrain.

The most blessed way I have of knowing God's comforting love and grace is to look into the eyes and heart of God's creatures' sweet angelic face.
