Thank you. I am grateful that I was here as well... I was gone for a week and a half last month and I am glad it didn't happen then, saying good bye is so important.
poor sparkle-puss :( I'm so sorry that he's gone! He was the fluffiest, most beautiful cross-eyed kitty ever! I'm glad he didn't suffer much until the end. You gave him the best, most loving home a kitty could want, no matter where you were. I remember him barfing yes, it was his special talent :) and also sitting contentedly on top of his perch, bestowing us with the occasional "reeeooow" and batting at bumper if he tried to fuck with him ;-) i was always impressed that spark could hold his own with the little whippersnapper. He was a trooper and led an extremely long, love-filled life.
I wish i was well enough to come see you tonight! Maybe if i'm feeling better by this evening i can come over to sf for dinner or something if you want.
thank you sweets, those are wonderful memories :) I remember you loved playing with them. They were still playing together, Bumper was having him chase him up and down the stairs here. Oh, and just before I left for the vet on sat night, Bumper came to him and gave him a few licks... and I am glad this happened.
yea I was sad you couldn't make it tonight but I accepted another invite (cause I have awesome friends) and it's better for you to focus on killing the sick, but I totally appreciate the thought, and let's hang out soon! :)
Aw, Cat, I am so sorry. :( You did right by him, that's for sure. I never got to meet him but he sure was a beautiful boy!
(And if Bumper and you continue to be lonely, I have it on good authority that simplykimberly is bottle-feeding some babies, and I can tell you from personal experience that no one pre-sweetens kittens like Miss Kimberly's Academy for Kitten Sweetening. Just in case that information is useful at some point.)
yea, I have seen simplykimberly's kittens on kittypix, I also know you got your youngins from her... I've browsed her pictures many times. I remember sending help when she was trying to save Roo. She is obviously an awesome cat mommy.
I think I want Bumper to have another buddy at some point, and I think maybe I'll foster kittens, so he can pick his new friend :)
I am not rushing anything tho, taking my time to mourn Spark for now, and we'll see when I'm ready to welcome more meows in my home.
It is so hard, I miss him so much, esp. on days I work from home all day. Time will heal and it will get better Thankfully I have Bumper and also the best friends in the world, who keep me from being too sad for too long!!
yea I am so glad I know about the Bone Room. I know Ophelia is ill, but sounds like she's still a happy kitty with you and your other kitties, hopefully for as long as possible!
Helena was pointing out that younger cats help keep an older cat active and healthy, I could definitely see it here, Bumper was often making Spark play with him, until what, last Thu or Fri... I hope Ophelia enjoys the youngins too! ;)

I never met Spark, but I'm glad you were able to be with him in the end. No doubt he knew how much he was loved.

I was thinking about you and Shiva, and wished I could draw kitties like you do :)
