Oh honey, I am so sorry for your loss. I know how much you loved him and how hard it is to lose a companion that you have had for so long. I wish I knew something that would make it better. I can tell you, based on my own experience, that your memories of him will last a lifetime and that they will eventually become a source of comfort rather than pain. I have my own memories of Russell, purring so loudly that it was hard to hear you on the phone. I'm tearing up and smiling at the same time, thinking about how much he loved you.

I call.

You have all my ♥.

My deepest condolences.

I am sorry to hear about your loss. I remember hearing a meow now and again when we spoke on the phone. Many hugs.

Sorry Momma. *HUG*

Ah, memories.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

As far as my recovery, it's a long slow process. I'm up walking short distances. It's just frustrating to be so relatively immobile. I'm still in a back brace for the next 2 months and fairly home bound. Trying to stay optimistic that it's all for the greater good and in six months I'll be better than ever.

Man that sux. I once had a turtle I loved for a week until he crawled in to the middle of the street...I cried for days as it was the first anything/one that was all mine. Can't imagine what it feels like when you lose someone you knew for so long.

I am still sucking air and passing gas.

Oh nooo! So sad

been better, been worse. so pretty much the same.

Now i have that song stuck in my head! Nooooooooo!!!!! It's still haunting me!!

Thinking of you. Hope you are doing ok. ♥

I don't think you couldst withstand the power and the glory that is mine mighty, manly, "battle cry', m'lady.

And I have yet to put my hands in actual poo at work (not counting dirty underwear), but I have put my hands into things that smell much worse.
