First I want to start by remembering my boy Wiley. Wile E. Kitty was a part of my life for such a short time, but he made a big impact. Wiley was Alley's older brother, and his death (May 20 1997) is what led me to my soulmate. Unfortunately the one picture I have of him won't scan (maybe when I get a better scanner I can share him with you). He was black like Alley but had short sleek fur. He also had one single white whisker like Alley.
He had such an amazing sweet personality. He was the only cat I had who would let me hold him like a baby and rock him to sleep. His tragic sudden death broke my heart. When the people I got him from found out they mentioned that they had more kittens if I wanted one. At first I didn't, because no way it could be as good as my baby boy. Then along came this little bundle of fur.  It was 10 years ago today that my darling Alley came into my life. Even as a tiny girl she came in and took over the house, and my heart. She was a diva, a queen, from day one. When I saw her one little white whisker, placed exactly where Wiley's was, I knew it was a sign that she was meant for me. Never had I had a cat who was so much MINE. Everyone knew it. Alley was mama's girl, all the way. I used to meow at her and she would get up and come right up in my face just meowing back with all she had, like she was really telling me something. She was so demanding, the way she woudl flop over and demand that I scratch her fluffy belly, and god forbid I should stop before she was done! There will never be another soul on the earth like her. The closest thing to her is when I look up and see the bright stars in the sky. She was my soulmate, my everything and I will miss her until the day I die. -------------------- |

There will never be another soul like Alley on earth but remember, YOU have a gift my freind. There are other furkids out there just waiting to be with someone like YOU. To be loved and talked to, to be treated with the full dignity and respect they deserve and YOU are capable of giving them. Someday when you are ready some lucky furkid out there is going to find a remarkable home.
Take Care -------------------- |

Alleys Mama
Isn't it amazing how much they change our lives? How much they have to teach us? Gosh Alley was SUCH a cute kitten! Several wise men I read has said something like....Make the most of what is coming and the least of what is going. At ten years you can see that Wile leaving was to make room for Alleys coming. What seemed and felt like a tragedy actually turned into a blessing. If we could just trust and believe. Moose and Alley are too soon for us to see it, but someday, I have to trust, it will make sense too. Each being is so special and unique, it's so hard to lose them. Love -------------------- Lori
For some of my Bridge kids. Butch 1974-1996 Alex 1981-1996 Moose 1996-2006 Mommy loves and misses you guys. She remember's all of you, even though it's too many to name each one. I can't wait to see you again. |

I wish I could have stayed home today. There are things at work today though that I had to be here for. Otherwise, I just want to stay in bed and cry.
I know I will find a kitty to love soon and he will be special and wonderful in his own way, but I'm having a hard time accepting that my baby girl will never be here with me again. -------------------- |

I'm so sorry. I'm beginning to tear up because I know what you are feeling, but don't think Alley is not with you because she is...in every way except the physical. Of course I understand how wonderful it would be to hold our babies one more time, or to just have a sign that they are ok. I would give anything to have that.
When you are ready to take on another furry one do it. Alley wouldn't want you to b alone. Like my Sadie, your Alley ran the place and it was all about her, as it should be, but they loved us with all of their hearts, and if there was any way for them to come back and comfort us they would. Our babies wouldn't want us to be alone. Take care John B -------------------- Sadie (named after the Beatles song "s e x y Sadie") came into my life when I rescued her from a cage in the SPCA in 1991. Then she was taken from me when she ate the tainted IAMs food in 2007. You will always be in my heart and thoughts, Sadie. There will never be another like you!
Rev 5:13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, [be] unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever. |

Thanks for sharing your story of how you got Alley. I have to admit she is one of the cutest kittens I have ever seen. What a sweetheart! It sounds like you guys were so close. I know waht you mean about that you don't think you'll ever find that same relationship with another pet, I feel the same way.
Thanks again for sharing you story and I'm not fibbing---that picture as a kitten is adorable....you were so lucky to have such a sweetheart......and she was lucky to have you. Many hugs, Amy |
