Bustopher




Thanks everyone for your kind thoughts:) It was SO nice to see after such a crummy day and evening. I think I wrote yesterdays post in a daze...as I hardly remember it.

I was surrounded by people outside and just couldn't truly express myself, I felt the need to just write it here.

I didn't sleep well at all last night. I have these images running through my mind of his last moments and it's just horrible. I realize I need to quit thinking that, but it's hard. As usual you have all the "what if's" going through your head.

I do realize that I take these chances when I have cats that go outside, especially where I live. But, Bustopher was SO happy outside. He was a happy cat. The way he died truly breaks my heart :(

So, anyway, to keep from depressing ya'll too much....
We did not go to Polson yesterday, the vet we were supposed to meet had to change plans. So we just took a scenic drive around town and did a few things. So, no real exciting pics and no kitten yet.

I think I'll work in the garden today :)

Oh and shout out Happy Birthday to
Marianna!!!

I'm so sorry Leesa.

To lose an animal we love is like losing a family member...

And it's even worse when it's unexpected with no time to prepare.. to face the moment of the dreaded - the receipt of bad news or that first undeniable vision that we so want to deny.

It's horrible and I know how you feel.

I wish I could take away the pain - bottle it up and toss it away where it couldn't hurt you any more...

Bustopher is smiling at you from where ever he's at now.... thanking you for all that you've done and all that you've given.

He was a strong cat... if he wasn't teasing the horses, or picking on the deer, or tending to an owwie he got on a limb... he was busy playing with Brock. From your prose I gather he lived a busy and happy life... one that many a cat can only dream of living. A wonderful yard, a beautiful home, and the most loving Mommy.

It's truly unfortunate that his time ended untimely, but I'm certain he's moved on to bigger and better and wilder adventures...

Truly,

Leesa, I am so sorry to hear about Bustopher. You gave that wonderful kitty the best home anyone could give him. You said it yourself, he was so happy outside. Imagine cooping him up, how miserable he would have been. Some cats just insist on being outside. And loving owners have to let them be happy.

And think of all the starving and mistreated kitties, and the homeless ones. Bustopher was one of the lucky ones and had a better life than most.
Know that my thoughts are with you. He was a beautiful little guy, and you gave him a wonderful happy life.
Hugs,
~S
