Ubukitty, A wonderful friend and companion Options

[Ubukitty's Pal]

All,

I just registered with LS this afternoon and was totally amazed to find such a wonderful site full of loving and caring people.

My loving companion of 20+ years died Wednesday morning from chronic kidney failure. She was a black long-haired kitty
who found me at the animal shelter back in 1988 - only 2 weeks old. I bottle fed her and weened her and we were together
from that time on.

When I awoke Wednesday morning she could not stand and barely could lift her head... and about 30 minutes later she had
a seizure and last gasp of air before passing away in my arms. Ever since then my grief has been overwhelming and the
crying just won't stop - I just want my baby back to give her more kisses and rubs and to tell her how much I love her.

I awoke at our normal 7:06am wakeup and eat time and was in the kitchen before I stopped myself, and after working
outside on the farm I still came into the house this morning and headed straight for the bedroom to check on her as was
my habit.

Today when I found LS it made a huge difference in my not feeling alone with this horrible depression and feeling of guilt
on not spending every moment at her side when she was with me; and now all I can think of is how she died and of what
else I could have done to keep us together.

I just had to tell someone about our seperation who would be able to understand.

Thanks for being here and letting me share.

Babygirl, you departed this world exactly one month ago today and while I have survived without you it has been very
hard and depressing. I have been working on focusing on all the great and wonderful times we had together but
sometimes the anguish and sorrow from us not being together cannot be ignored; that is why I am writing to you so
early this morning.

I have decided to start a journal to record all the memories as they surface for posterity. Now if I can figure out how to
bring it with me to our future reunion we will have a great scrapbook to read and enjoy!

Daddy misses you so much... you will always be my baby and be front and center in my heart. Keep those ears
forward and those paws crossed sweetie!

Love, H
