Elizabeth, I am so very sorry of your loss of your special baby – she is so beautiful –I have recently lost two of my babies and might be losing another one, it's so painful to hear about your loss as I can feel your pain so close to my heart. Please know that your mama kitty is free from all the pains now and her soul is right besides your heart.

Here is a picture of Mama Kitty - happy on her porch. She was a very vocal girl. If you said something to her - she would say something right back. She loved everyone. http://www.trentdesigns.com/elizabeth/MVC-082F.JPG elizabeth On 3/28/07, *Nina* <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Oh Elizabeth, words can not express my condolences for the loss of Mama Kitty. My first reaction was anger, (I actually cursed at the screen), then reading about how ready she was to go, the flood gates opened and I cried right along side you. Thank you for letting us know about her message to you, with those purrs I felt a wave of gratitude from her for the love you shared. I feel blessed in knowing you and your allowing us to be a small part of your lives together. I believe with all my heart the purrs you heard were Mama comforting you, letting you know that she will always be with you and that you did exactly the right thing, (not just at the end of her life, but all along your journey together). It gives me comfort to think of her sunning herself on the porch; sleeping with you; of how you were in tune enough with her to make sure she spent her days the way she wanted to as best you could. I think the way she chose to transition was a gift to you. She had quality time up until the end, (even giving you warning as much as a year before to prepare you and alert you to live in the moment with her), and when she was ready, she expressed it in a way that could leave no doubt in your mind that it was the right decision to help her pass. What a loving little soul she is. I just want you to know that Mama kitty and your love for each other has touched my heart. Your sweet Angel lives with me too now.
