I AM THE BIGGEST JOHN FAN!

Before I take my leave, I wanted to take the time to say Thankyou to all you wonderful people who over the years have become my true friends. For all the laughter, silly jokes, heartfelt tears and many other things to numerous to mention. I remember how much you all worried and cared when my family were afraid that my mom was dying and what a great cheering crowd you all were in helping her regain her health. Now it is my time to leave this dimension and while I do not know what is on the otherside I sure do hope I will get to meet Emerson, Peggie and all the other true friends (fur and otherwise)I feel that I made while they were still here. I know that you all will keep on laughing because as we know laughter is the best medicine.![]() |

You say you want to save humanity but it`s people that you just can`t stand John came to me in a dream and this is what he said. "I had a vision of a man on a flaming pie, and he told me that Betsy with a B not Lisa with a L is the biggest fan of mine". John trumps 'the boss' ! I WAS ROBBED BY THAT DEVIL WOMAN | |

I'm so sorry. It's terrible losing a member of your furry family. Dove lived such a long life, she was even older than me! |

Thankyou so much Judy and Grace. Dove was a very talkative little lady and tonight it has been so quiet. I know she is in a better place but there is a hole in my heart.

I'm sorry to hear theonlyfab4fan that your Kitty has passed away.I am sending your Kitty and you positive energy and prayers.take care Rainbow Bridge Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together. |

Thankyou Peregrine, Your comments are so kind and very much appreciated. The Rainbow Bridge is one of my favorites. As many of you know, we have a lot of kitties and the vast majority of them are rescues. We work with a facility here in Raleigh called Safe Haven which is a no kill cat shelter. They are very close to our hearts and during our current financial problems the donors at the organization have been so generous to us by donating food and supplies and providing vet care for the cats that we house in our home. I have not been able to physically spend time at the shelter the last year due to my hip and health issues but starting next month I will be going in 3 times a week to work with new rescues providing socialization therapy which is also connected with their feral cat program. I am very excited to be able to do this. All of our babies are precious but Dove was extremely special. She picked us! Dove was actually our neighbors cat but she preferred spending time at our house. Her original family loved her but for some reason she just decided here was where she wanted to be. They lived across the street from us for 7 years and during that time Dove would come over everyday to visit and sometimes just plain refused to go home. We didn`t mind and Rachel (her first mom) was okay with it as well. When they moved we were so sad. 2 weeks later I went out to get the morning paper and heard a familiar voice. There was Dove. I called Rachel and asked her if she was missing anything and she said Dove had been gone for nearly 2 weeks. I tentavely broached the subject of letting her stay and Rachel immediately agreed. Dove had travelled nearly 20 miles to get back to us! We had a total of 26 years with this very special soul. I feel like the most blessed person in the world because of the choice that Miss Dove made all those years ago. |

I'm sorry to hear about your cat, Betsy. Pets can be just like family. I have a dog that's on it's last leg now. We've had her for 12 years now and has been a big part of my & my childrens' lives. I'm sure if there is a Kitty Heaven, Dove would be there! Olen |

Thankyou sister Judy. We were truly the lucky ones. I told her to find Mike and keep his feet warm. She was an expert at snuggling. I was going to call you today and got busy cleaning out Dougs closet. Ugh, not just dust bunnies but dust rhinos! Give me a ringy dingy when you feel like a chat. I`m eating chocolate dipped pretzels at the moment. Would you like me to have one for you too?

Sorry I haven't been on, to much stress in my life. I'm so sorry to hear about your fur baby. I know all to well what that is like. It's losing a member of your family, not like losing a member as they are our family. I don't know what I would feel if my Isis or Dennis, my ex, would lose his Paisley. They drive us both nuts but we love them very much. Love ya, dear! |
