The Passing of the Princess







One of my best friends passed on yesterday. Velvet enriched our (and supervised) our lives for 16 years. She was my gardening buddy and we will greatly miss her.

Ok Kath, I am sorry about your sweet kitty. Karen had to put her dog down on the same day. Our pets are such members of our family. Sending hugs your way.

Dear Kath,

My heart just broke. I am so very sorry for the loss of your beloved Velvet. What a beautiful cat. I know you will miss your kitty. 16 yrs. is a very long time. But trust me when I say that I bet Velvet is playing happily with God now. You're in my prayers. May God comfort you and help you through this time.
