Long over due update..
Well...I haven't written in Lj for a long time but that doesn't mean I haven't been reading my friends post..even if I haven't really commented.
On Aug. 26th, about a week ago I lost my dear friend, KittyLou, the Tom cat I have been with for 12 years and 3 months. He has been sick for awhile..anemia and other age related things like Kidney problems, all untreatable with his meds and it hit me hard. He was and still is the love of my life..weird to say even more than any human being that has ever crossed my path. He was with me through ups and downs..hard times, good times, money and poverty..the many moves in habitations and he never once lost his mojo, his love and kindness...I had hit a point where I had the choice to put him down but since he was not really in any misery as far as real pain I sat with him on his death bed, held his paws told him I loved him and held him until he slipped away. I had him cremated and he forever lives in my heart.
A miracle happened two days later..my friend was outside gardening when a car pulled up and cruely threw out a kitten about 3 months old and pulled away. Me being the beliver in the great beyond figured it was KittyLou sending me someone to help with my broken heart and I let the Tom cat in to my life...he's a real sweetie,no KittyLou, but his spirit has helped me tremendously. When he is being a sweet kitten I call him Tommy(as in Hansen) but when he is being a naughty kitten, like taring up my room and my flesh I call him Todd(as in Sweeney) so his name is TommyTodd.
