Not much can be done to ease the pain of losing something or someone you care deeply for. Time will eventually heal the hurt. Mark and Lori, my deepest sympathy to you both. Your friends, Tom & Lady Jo. |

Well I must be extremely lucky then, Cause outside of sometimes tossing Her cookies, Or stools that are like a politician, Angel seems ok for an almost 18yro kitty. :D The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

Where are my Kleenex? I know it is a hard decision. Oscar is in a better place. Thanks, Uli, but I must now deal with my own 'cycle of life'....... I may go join Oscar.......which would indeed be a better place for me. May just stay here and give the rest of you crap......... Don't know just now........... Will let you know in the morning..........or not. If I am not there, meow without me. Meow. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

I just can't stand alone............. Blue whatever....the fk.....gotta go now, because I will drown in my tears otherwise.......I will post one more movie clip, just to try to make me feel better.......but it is for naught....`.....I am done here. I miss him too much, I think I need to be with him. See ya on the flip side. If I change my mind, I will be here tomorrow. If not......... Wish me well in my travels............. All my trials....... There is a tree in paradise.............. The pilgrims call it the tree of life........ All my trials, Lord......soon be over. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Thanks to all of you once again who have expressed your sympathies and thoughts for Lori and I..... I shall relay your kind words to her, as she does not travel the Seti circuit...LOL. I got a lot of pain out of my system last night, and am feeling much better today. Oscar will be tugging at my heartstrings for some time to come, but I think the worst has passed. Your support here at Seti has been invaluable to me. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

I just wanted to post a note........ 'They'......whoever 'they' are......... Say that 'time heals all wounds'...... May or not be so, but in the last days, my pain of Oscar's untimely departure from our company has been replaced, at times, by some happier thoughts. I get flashes of him and his silly grin looking up at me, his rolling over on his back, baiting me to give him attention. His stance, his smile (yes, some kitties DO smile). His big eyes. His sleeping in his water dish, his dragging about his feather toy like it was a war prize. His many hours spent sitting in the window under which he now lies. I should know such peace. Yes.......there are many good memories to offset the pain of his departure. Even in his absence, he can still make me smile now and again......and again. He was God's gift to us kitty lovers, and will always be remembered as that. Thank you once again, to all who put up with me through the pain of his loss. Meow.

Wandering note....... Lori and I still think of Oscar often. He was such a special kitty.....she gets sad thinking about him often. I miss him still....his ways...his mannerism. His way of looking at us. Some people, places, things......just pass in the wind, and are soon forgotten. Oscar will never be forgotten. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting."
