Thank You and a Feline Sneak Peek

  SDC16092-1
The outpouring of kind words and sympathies over the passing away of my big orange cat, Mozart, has been so touching.  I received heart-warming hand made cards (which I plan to share) and had so many beautiful comments on my tribute post.  I can't tell you how much it meant to me in the healing process.  I still miss him but the memories are now recalled with smiles rather than tears.

I wanted to highlight a couple cards today, above and below, both created by my dear friend Kadie Labadie (check out her blog–lots of gorgeous work).  Jawdroppingly cute, yes?

SDC16094-1 SDC16038-1 So I shared some good news with Kadie recently that's reflected in the second card.  My family can be very convincing and the animal shelters are full of adult cats . . . I'll have someone new to introduce to you in the next few days.  Here's a sneak peek.

  3. So glad you’ve rescued another cat. We did, too (our Sweet Pea died at 20 in August). We’ve had Lucy for two weeks. I had wanted an adult cat, too, but was unsure how she or our dog, Chrissy, would react to each other as adults, so we have an 8 month-old – and they get along just fine. Thanks for sharing – can’t wait to meet your new addition.

  6. Oh my, that little paw is so darn cute it made my heart go pitter pat. I can’t wait for you to share the rest. I think it’s wonderful that you are adopting from a shelter. And the cards made by your friend are fabulous!

  8. Darling cards 🙂 My daughter LOVES cats and I shudder to think of the day we will no longer have ours. However, we did get him as an adult cat and would do the same all over again as you are. LOVE grey kitties and can’t wait to see all of him/her 🙂

  9. I wish there were words to say that would remove the pain of losing your kitty, but I think only time helps us in these type times. We still miss our dog “Barnie” who was with us for 17 years, but my kitty, Callie, has sure helped the healing process…in fact, she’s rotten, but I don’t care…she is great company for me and brings me much joy and lots of laughs. Cats are so entertaining, aren’t they?

    So sorry for your loss. I love the cards above and your sneak peek pic, too.

  10. Awww… Mary, It is so hard to loose a close friend (I lost one of my kitties 7 days after we brought our infant son home and I so which he could have gotten to know that kitty especially since he loves our other family cat so much!) I can’t wait to meet your newest family member! In the meantime, our family vacation to Tuscon is shaping up nicely and I’m still hoping to stop by for a visit especially as I enjoyed meeting you as well as chatting with you at Leadership! Hugs and kisses to the newest family member.

  11. Such adorable little cards. And Mary, I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your cat…my pets are such a big part of my family so it hits close to home when someone’s pet passes. My apologies to you though, as I remember a while back seeing a post about your cat and I must have misread the post as I thought for some unknown reason it was a “remembering” post and that he had passed a long time ago. So I guess I misread something there. Hugs to you! Hope you are having a wonderful day 🙂
