Re: OT: Sultan is now in kitty heaven

Gently trimmed...

I am sorry to hear he has gone, but you did the best you could. Our Marmalade died of renal failure also, poor kitty. Have some soft furry ((((((HUGS)))))) and remember him with love.

I'm so sorry to hear you have lost your Sultan. It sounds like he had a pretty good life with your family. Glad he is over the suffering of this life. My heart is with you and your family.

Lori, I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I'm a "dog-person", rather than a "cat-person", but I know very well how painful it is to have to make the decision you had to make. I also know how painful it is to deal with the resulting loss, even though you know it was best for your beloved pet. {{{{{{Hugs}}}}}}

Lori-

I'm so sorry for your loss. When the pain of your loss fades a bit, you will be able to smile and remember the loves and snuggles and the fun times with your Sultan. The rose garden will be a lovely memorial to your babies.

Hugs,

Leslie

Oh, Lori, I was so sorry to hear about Sultan. We have kitties and pups, and have had a loss in both. It doesn't get easier, but you will have all the wonderful memories to get you through this time. They may leave the earth, but they never leave our hearts!
