My heart is full of gratitude for all of the words of comfort over the loss of Spooky Jr

Spooky was a sweet and increasingly bold little presence in the yard and will be missed. I'd write more, but I don't want to start crying, again. Just know that I'm beyond grateful.

What an adorable kitty. You did everything you could for her. Sometimes, things we love aren't meant to be with us for long.

we were lucky to rescue INKY, SADIE AND SALLY. And we also Rescued ANNIE & TAFFY from the metal yard.

Hugs from a Cat Mom.

He sits by the door until I feed him. He’s very tame with me he loves to be petted has never scratched or bitten. I’ve tried to bring him inside but he freaks out. He’s getting kind of old to keep outside. He was fixed as a kitten. About four years ago he disappeared, I was fraught with grief. I was still crying seven weeks later when he showed up in the yard skinny and dehydrated, it was early spring so the weather was not bad. He must’ve been trapped in a garage and existed on insects and condensed water. He was the runt of the litter, the little fucker bounced back within a week don’t know where he had been, thought he’d been eaten by a coyote. He was probably within 100 yards of me the whole time. So now if he’s late for dinner, I’m frantic. Just to show you I know what you’re going through.

And I hope the other kittens are helping even more.

RIP, sweet little soul.
