Re: My dear little Claudette
Dear Bonnie, How terrible; first the blow of the diagnosis and then the reaction to the treatment. I know how heavy your heart must be. She certainly had a wonderful life with you and it's obvious you have many treasured memories. I'm sure that Philippe was waiting for her and one of her headbutts that he'd been missing.

This is turning out to be a sucky day, isn't it? It never rains but it pours. Bonnie, I have no words.

RE: My dear little Claudette
Bonnie, I'm so sorry. I know how badly you're going to miss Claudette. They all sound so adorable, you must miss them all so much--the image of them climbing up into your lap is wonderful.

Re: My dear little Claudette
They are together and they are very grateful for your love. In a few days, aftersome of the shock has dulled, ask them to come to you in your dreams..then let them in. When you close your eyes each night, be open to them visiting. When the time is right, they will visit you. Don't be afraid and don't be in a hurry to wake up..enjoy their visit and ask them to come again. The visits will not make the pain of losing them go away but it will let you know that they are happy and carefree and healthy and very much appreciate everything you did for them and for all the other cats and other animals you have helped. They will fill your heart with their love.you just have to let them. - Original Message - From: Barb Moermond To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Friday, September 16, 2005 5:16 PM Subject: Re: My dear little Claudette Oh Bonnie, I am so sorry.. again, I'm crying here at my desk.
