Simba is on His Way

Simba's Mom and Dad here.    Simba is on his way, no longer bound by Earthly pains and sickness.   He was our very sweet boy.    We are very sad but we will be okay.

Thank you to everyone who commented on his last post.   The comments were a great source of strength for us.     I, Mom, tried to write a reply to each comment, and I  send my love back to you.

Hopefully in the future I can keep Simba's memory alive by visiting your blogs and seeing your sweet pets.

Ann of Zoolatry made this beautiful picture for us.    Thank you so so much, Ann.

    I am sorry that I did not get to know him, nor his furmily.
    Sending huge purrs that may offer a wee bit of comfort.

    I have made a card for him, too, with petcretary's help...but I do not know how to post it here in the comments, so if you can send me your email, I can send it to you. I will also post it on my blog nest time I post. (Usually Sundays or sometimes Mondays.)
    My email is:

  26. Sending you so many purrs! Simba was one of the lucky ones to have had such a loving family -- he had a great kitty life with you. I know how hard it is to say goodbye, though, and only time will ease your sorrow. We hope you are able to come say hello now and then -- we won't forget Simba (or Audrey!) or you XOXOXO

    ~My Little Cat Ghost~

    The years I've worn you,
    warm upon my shoulder,
    ended here...
    surprised to find us older.

    And there was nothing
    left to do today
    but hold you close
    and help you on your way.

    Be still, my little cat,
    Be well; be free.
    I know that you are somewhere near,
    and loving me.

  58. I thought I had left my condolences, but we were away on a cruise and the internet was very patchy so it must have failed.
    I am so sorry that Simba's time came for him to go to the Bridge. He was a long time friend and won't be forgotten.
