For Jana, who will always be with me, and with all my love.

12 years is a short time on this earth
But I hope that short time
Was long enough
To fit in all the
Butterfly chasing
Mice torturing
Make believe prey stalking
Sun bathing
Lap pummelling
Staring over my shoulder in horror at nothing, as a cat joke, in the dead of night
Tripping unsuspecting guests on the stairs
Tripping yourself on your four left paws
Refusing to believe you were feline
Sitting on window ledges
Sitting on the edge of my nightly bath, intrigued
Drinking out of taps
Watching
Sleeping
Cuddling
Eating
That you ever wanted
I hope that short time
Was long enough.
It was not enough for me.

I am thinking of you and your sweet baby boy. I don't think we ever get over all the pain all we can do is learn to live without them. No amount of time with them is ever enough. I am thinking of you and your precious baby.

My girls went to the Rainbow Bridge 6 weeks and 3 days apart.
Snookie had cushing's disease, and later developed diabetes. Both had cancer, Snookie had cancer of the liver, and Chili Bean had cancer of the pallet. Chili Bean was our son's chihuahua but we kept her often throughout her life and she stayed with us for the last 9 months of her life. Chili Bean also had asthma and heart failure. We will see you in Heaven my precious darlings.

Ann - I was so sorry to read about Snookie, my heart is with you x
Although I am deeply sad and still cry and still 'see' my babykitten Jana, I'm gradually coming to terms with it all. I have to say that getting his remains back was the best thing for me - they've put his ashes in a carved wooden cat that now sleeps next to my hearth. it's not him I know, but it's a help - it looks so peaceful. I like to think of him doing all the ridiculous things he did, following me (even to the bath or toilet) around and falling off things (he would run blindly off furniture and trees - he trusted everything). It stops me thinking about the last hours and it's respectful to his memory to think of him younger, healthier. Although, of course, If I could've chosen the amount of time we had together, it would have been forever. I have to be glad that we were lucky enough to find each other at all.
