My Anniversary

Five years ago today, Nik (@catrulers) and Admiral (whose given name is Bianca)   (@admiralhestorb) joined paws together for  marriage.  Admiral flew to the Rainbow Bridge not too long afterward, but Nik and Admiral's love is a lasting journey into tomorrow and tomorrow and beyond.  Their love lasts forever.  

Now Admiral's dear Nikita is on the Bridge with her. He flew away to join her December 26, 2015. But until then, she kept watch over him to keep him happy and safe.  They are together again, and they await their families by and by.  Rest in peaceful slumber,  precious fur babies. Mommy loves you so much.  Both of you. 

Look at ME, Kitties

Kitties, just a month before I went to the Rainbow Bridge, mommy got up early one morning and look who she saw in the darkened living room when she turned on the light!

She praised and praised me for being the consummate hunter I was!  I was proud and happy to show off my work.

GOTCHA!

Look what I got for you Mama!

My Flickr friend Anne Varney crafted this of Admiral for me of stained glass.  I have all my kitties done by her. 

Mom Was Thinking of Me.

Kitties, Mom has been thinking about me all afternoon.  She was sent pictures that Mariodacat collected for her from Twitter back in December 2011 when mom was too sad to do anything....of all the Pals who gathered on my #Admiral Porch on Twitter, just before I went to the Bridge and right afterward.

 Seeing all the pictures of my Pals from Twitter and reading their words, and reading all my Furriends comments here on the CB that day I had to leave Mommy, was a precious thing for her to see  again after these five years.  She was so grateful and still is for all the love expressed for me and for her at that most terrible time.

Some Furriends and Pals made some pictures for momma.  They are much much loved to this minute I know.  May I show you a few, my dear Furriends?  The top one sends mom into such tears and sadness each time she sees it as it is so evocative of my final journey.  All are deeply appreciated.  All of you friends here in the CB came quickly to hold my mom in love while she grieved over me.  Thank you.   And I send Angel kisses to each of you.  I always do.

Sending love to each of you here on the CB.  You are very loved by mom, Katie and certainly me.

Celebrating the Day

Kitties,  you know me.  I was always happy and hoped every other kitty and woofie was too,  I still feel that way though I am  waaaay off on the Bridge where I patiently wait.

I'll have to say however that I did a great job choosing Katie out for mom.  She, mom, was having a terrible time and I felt badly for her.  I tried and succeeded sometimes in soothing her but she longed for the touch of fur.  I could not do that for her though it grieved me.  I chose Katie because she was the most loving kitty there and I made sure Mom had to go to the Vet's office though she did not want to.  She had to get my footie print.  That's when I whispered to Katie, whom I had arranged to be there as well,  what to do, when and how.

Mom has Katie's glossy sweet fur to love on since--- until we ALL meet again.  Wait till she sees me.  I look fantastic! Mom will too and Katie too. Hopping John,   Robin, everyone.

I love those tabbies of Trouttowne, Dude and Sauce.  We have a cafe going and man, the fish is great.

Just flying by to say hello and love ya.

My Nik is Gone

Nikita, my cat husband passed away yesterday at the age of nineteen years.  He is with me now at the Rainbow Bridge.

We are reunited  now after the four years have passed since I flew away to the Bridge; but his mom and mine as well as his brofer Rocky are bereft.

Here is his Mom's tribute to Nik.  I hope you can go and leave a word of comfort as she is missing him very badly.

Goodbye dearest Nik, Mom and I will always love you always, and your star will be brilliant in the sky tonight just as it was last night.Later you will look in on your mommy and she will feel your presence and smile without knowing quite why.  I love you Nik.   Rest in peace darling.

Hush my dear

Lie still and slumber
Holy angels guard thy bed.
Heavenly Blessings 
Without number
Gently falling
On thy head...
