Sorry to hear about Charcoal, Richard. I hope kitty finds it's way home.

I am working on it. The clouds are starting to lift a bit.
I tend to be a manic depressive type, and once in a while my lows get to be more than I can handle for a time.

Thank you to all for your encouragement and caring...it helps a lot.

Now I must attend to the kitty ears and a good night's sleep like Dr. Fuzzy prescribed.

I assure you all, I will be OK. And thanx again for all your thoughts.

Regards,
Mark.

Richard, I feel your pain. Long time ago I rescued two kittens (Eyes still closed, summer in California, hot). Zappa, yep named after that one, gone missing after he was about three month old and it took two weeks to get a tip of who "rescued him". A few weeks later, he was missing again and I never found him. He was the best cat I ever had. Kept my toes warm, knew a litterbox from day one and never climbed the curtains. His brother moved with me decades ago, but decided to live down the street. At least I knew his fate.

Thank you sir.....and I shall soon do so.

But before I do, I just want to post a thought that I shared with some of my fellow mods just a bit ago.

With all of the personality clashes that rear their heads, differences of opinion, and a few other sore spots that come to the surface from time to time, it still absolutely amazes me that so many of you can offer their sympathies and support to someone that you really don't know from Adam who posts about their troubles.

God bless you all for being there.

And the kitties actually just saw Dad smile.........
And shed a tear.....

I think the writer "John Dunne" said it best - "No Man Is An Island".

It's only in recent times that the medical profession has come to realise what depression is.

Without support of any kind, it becomes soul destroying. But what can give one a real boost is communication with others. We may not know you personally Mark, but we can see from your posts that you are a communicator.

Nice to see that the Kitties are staying.

Regards

I think you would be better off choosing nicer company Mark. But I send you my best wishes.

Most folks here ARE nice company.
We all have a bad day now and then..I just had mine. Hopefully I've got it out of my system for a while...LOL.
And thank you for your thoughts. Sometimes it takes little else to make one feel better about things than just to know someone else cares a bit.

Thank you...I try to be.
Like most other human beings I do make mistakes and some misjudgments. But I am not above admitting it when I do. Or apologizing if I must.

I thank you for your thoughts as well.

Albert Schweitzer

Time spent with cats is never wasted.
Sigmund Freud

Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.
