Dear Catmom, Sending you my hugest hugest hugs - please know you are in my thoughts, Leejaye PS I wrote this about 10 times, no words seemed adequate...

My sweet boy Zilla, how much I still miss you. It's been one year and 17 weeks this Christmas Eve since you
made your journey over the Bridge. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of you, and now Gary. This will
be your second Christmas that we have been apart, but at least now, I know you are not there alone. Gary came
to join you when the angels came for him last month, and I know the two of you are having a great time and you
are showing Gary all your new tricks. You are now both healed and healthy and happy, young and full of life again
but I still miss you both more than I can put into words, and I think you both know the depths of my love.

I'm having a hard time adjusting to you both being gone from me, but I know that as long as I hold you both close
in my heart, you will always be with me, your spirits keeping watch over me.
This is another Christmas where there will be no joy in this house. Tank, Boomer and Munch are wonderful
company for me, and are doing their best to give me comfort, and I am so grateful to have them with me.
I send Gary and you my love and blessings this Christmas, I miss you so much.

To all of my L/S friends - Thank you all for your kind wishes and support over the loss of my husband. I wish you
Peace and Joy this night and always. May your hearts be healed by the Spirit Of Christmas.

My deepest condolences on your losses at this difficult time of year in dealing with such. Your 'Zilla and Gary are indeed reunited in a peaceful beautiful place. I hope they have met up with Sir Thomas and all the other wonderful fur kids that have passed from our loving arms here on earth. I hope you can find some peace and comfort in this holiday season. Hugs from

Theresa, Tang and me.

Hi, Cat Mom, thank you so very much for sharing with us how you're doing and your beautiful love letter to your beloved Zilla. How well I know the deep sadness that is in your heart, Cat Mom. It is very hard to feel "joy" in your heart - - as advertised with the commercialism of the season - - when you are struggling with the painful adjustment of the physical loss of a loved one - - your husband and Zilla. As hard as we try to keep focused on our blessings, there is no denying that our hearts are yearning for those who are no longer physically with us.

I truly hope and pray that somehow your heart will know the true joy and peace of this blessed season of celebration that will bring comfort to your heart both now and throughout the coming new year. And please always remember, Cat Mom - - you are never alone. Each of us are here for you. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers, Cat Mom, and that I look forward to knowing how you and your precious furkids are doing, and to sharing your cherished memories of your beloved Gary and Zilla.

Peace and blessings,

For my sweet Zilla,
It's hard to believe that it has been two years since you have been gone. I still think of you and miss you every day. I hope you and Gary are having lots of adventures, and you are meeting the other furkids that have come to join you there. There have been so many.

Life is moving on for me, as it should, but I will always carry you both in a special place in my heart. As the saying goes, "Always missed, never forgotten". It sounds so trite, but it is so true.
For my friends here on L/S, leejaye, LoveMyMickey - I've stopped in from time to time to see how you all have been doing.

MoonBeam - it is so wonderful that you finally left that toxic pit and can now enjoy a peaceful life with Noah.

Tom's Dad, I am glad to hear that you are employed again, maybe not the perfect job, but at least it's a paycheck. I'm sorry that you have such a difficult commute, I know how wearing that must be on you, but you are doing such a wonderful job for Teresa and Tang - just think where they would be without you.

For all the other L/S members - I know how bad this grief journey can be - there are times that you feel like you just don't want to go on. But I can tell you that it does get better. Time does heal. You will never forget your furkids, they will always be a part of you and will always live on in your heart and memories. You have found a safe haven here, where you can share your grief with others who understand and can offer support and compassion. I am so thankful that I was lead here, you all have no idea how much L/S helped me.
Blessings to you all,
Cat Mom
