Thank You Trout Towne Tabbies
In March, a little over a month before Nellie went over the bridge, Boomer at the Trout Towne Tabbies, took his trip.He was only a couple of weeks older than Nellie Bellie. Laura wrote the most beautiful poem about St Francis greeting Boomer. When Nellie went over, she sent me the poem, rewritten for Nellie.
Thank You Phenny
I loved Easy and his pawrents antics and when Easy left us last December, I was heart broken. Nellie had so much fun with Easy! They Danced! THey Played! and Nellie even visited their crib. I am so looking forward to getting to know Phenny better.Thank You Cat Wisdom 101
Almost a year ago, Nellie got married to Merlin. Merlin was the heart cat of Layla the creator of Cat Wisdom 101 and Black Cats tell All.Merlin passed over the bridge shortly after.
Layla created this wonderful card and wrote a lovely memorial to my girl.
Last But NEVER Least...
We have received so many lovely emails and posts of condolences I can not even start to thank you all. I knew that Nellie was loved, but I had no idea how much and hearing from all of you has helped to fill the hole in my heart.Here is a badge for you my friends. Both Nellie and I know you are
FABULISHIOUS!!!
I have posted the badge on Caturday Art, click Athena's badge to see all the other art work.

ReplyDeleteI will always remember Nellie and always miss her and recall how she taught me not to be jealous of all the mancats who loved her. I learned at her knee how to be a special friend; and how to enjoy her without ever thinking beyond the moment we were enjoying at the time. I'll join you before too long dearest Nellie. XXXX
