Gosh ... I know that it is different for everyone but I had a similar experience earlier this spring so I have an idea of how tough that must have been. I'm sure that Spats had a wonderful happy life.

Dear sweet Spats Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together.... Author unknown...

((((Prisoner)))) My Buddy had to go to the vet yesterday for an oral operation. He had to have three teeth removed as they were getting loose. During the operation he started wheezing from his asthma, which usually doesn't act up a lot but the stress of the operation enhanced it. They had to keep his tracheal tube in a lot longer and kept him sedated the rest of the day, so he didn't get to come home. Hope he is okay this morning. I miss him.

Thanks OG. I just got back with Buddy about 30 minutes ago. He talked to me all the way home as if asking if we were going home 'now'. DH met us at the door and Buddy got right out of the carrier and headed straight for his soft food. Guess they didn't feed him! Poor guy hadn't eaten since night before last. Then he hopped right up in our laps for some TLC and neck rubs. Our neighbors cat came over a few minutes ago looking for him. Pooh Daddy missed him, too.

{{{Prisoner and Spats}}} I'm so sorry. The same thing happened with my Jade at 16. It is an empty feeling in the house. (gosh can it be 3 yrs already?!!) We now have Misha who is going on 3 (she was born right after Jade died) and I still sometimes slip and call her Jade. Gracie - Glad Buddy made out ok!

Hurray for Dylan! Hurray for Houdini! Hurray for mom and awwww for the kitties. Thanks everyone. Buddy is still in the house. He has thought about going back out, but I've just called him away from the door. Don't think it will last much longer though. Jujukitty has been indoors for about three and a half weeks now. She tried sneaking out a few days ago, when Buddy was at the hospital, but didn't go beyond the garage!

Now, that surly is a picture of terror on the hoof if I've ever seen it. You can tell from looking at her eyes she's just lying there figuring out what to get into next. (Very pretty, though!)

Awww thanks! I figure I won't have any grandbabies for a few years, so she's my 4-legged one for me to spoil. lol I think she is going to be a big kitty. Yesterday, at the vet, she weighed 5 1/2 lbs. already. My 15 year old cat only weighs a half pound more and my 16 year old cat weighs 7 pounds. Anabelle has no fear of my two cats. She just plops down beside them and when they growl, she looks at them like, "What's your problem?"
