Sorry to hear about that PK, I know she'll be missed.

Are you taking AVS sites yet?

Probably not the right time to ask..I'm thinking?

Sorry PK.

Sorry to hear about your kitty Beth. I lost 3 to the same type of thing in the past 2 years. Had mine for 12 years. The 4th cat we had turned into a total freak after his buds died. We couldn't even keep him here. He was running around like a total crazed cat. Staring like he was seeing the ghosts of the cats that had died and then just zooming all over the place.

Ended up giving him to a friend to see if a different evironment would help his stress and some old lady bitch frickin catnapped him when he was wondering in her yard and gave him to a pet adoption place. The bitch wouldn't even tell us where she had taken him. Called in the police and she wouldn't tell them either.
Really sad.

Had the cat thing out of me now for good and just stickin to dogs.

Sorry to hear that PK. She is such a pretty cat. Makes me think of my two and appreciate them more. Will break my heart to see them go.

PK sorry to hear about your kitty...

I know you have heard this before, but it is important to dwell on the long time you had with a great pet!

So sorry for your loss PersianKitty:( She is a beautiful cat. I lost my persian a couple of years ago to liver disease and I haven't been able to get up the courage to get another one.

awwww *HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUG*

PK's bunch was the only kitties that Dawgy liked.

PK, she's beautiful. Still. And she's with you - just close your eyes and you'll feel her.
Blessed Be...

Sorry to hear about your loss :(

As a cat lover I can sympathize with your loss. I have three kitties of my own and they are a big part of my family. But it sounds like Princess got to live a long and happy life. My thoughts go out to you.

I'm really sorry to hear that. At least she lived a full life.

very very special cat. RIP kitty.

My condolences.. I have lost a lot of animals in my time and it is never easy, especially when you have had them with you that long!

2nd on the avs sites
I was also wondering if you are accepting TGP2 sites?

I got a few if you can list them right now, thanks! send me your icq and I'll message them to you.


heheh

PK, I'm so very sorry to hear that..I've put down many a pet friend in the past 10 years..I feel your sorrow..

But she's around..watching over you..like my Sheba and Blue and Brandy..Ya know.?

The loss of a pet is never a good thing. PF's Min Pin died not long after he did and his wife took it terribly hard especially coming so soon after PF's death.

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. :(

I had to put my Cat "Indy" down a couple of years ago. I was heartbroken, he was such a cool cat.

My condolences PK.

Aww...I'm so sorry to hear about your loss.
I know losing a pet can be hard, my cat was lost a few weeks ago and it absolutely tore me apart, and I had only been with her for about 4 months, you are right, it is like losing a child, I hope you are okay and just remember, she had a full happy life :)

from one cat lover to another I extend my condolences

peace
:)

Terribly sorry to hear about Princess :( Our family are cat lovers too and I dread the day this happens to us.

Nice to see so many other cat lovers. I got my first one a few years back. I hope he has a long life like yours enjoyed.

I had a misperception that most people were either scared or disliked cats but recently read that there are more cats then dogs as pets n North America.

PK

Sorry for your loss. It's a very sad day losing
a pet. :(

boo

that sux pk, sad to hear it

Sorry to hear about the loss of your cat.

Is this the beautiful kitty that inspired your domain name? If so, you've created a permanent memorial to this beautiful family member. If not, do you mind talking about the origin of your domain name? I've always loved it.

Sorry for your loss. I could only imagine what you must feel.

So sorry to hear :(

19 years big part of your heart

Thanks to all of you :)

Actually Donovan, the persian kitty is my cat Smokey. He's 13 now. Princess was my first kitty once I got out of college and on my own.

The domain name came from my online nickname/screenname. Back in 1994 (before the invention of fire and the wheel as I tell my kids), there existed Compuserve. I signed up with their chat interface and it asked for a 'handle' and stated it's best not to use your name. After a moment or two of thinking I typed in *PersianKitty* because Smokey was sitting on my desk purring up a storm and bugging the heck out of me. The nickname stuck. When CIS' chat got too expensive, a group of us moved to the IRC chat on the Net. I spent most of 6 months or so 'converting' some of our diehard chatters, helping them find an ISP. Even formed a channel on the Undernet. My nickname of course moved with me. When I put up a webpage and subsquently the link list, it only made sense to keep using the name I'd come to be known as.

Good thing, I didn't have a dog sitting by me that day, I could of become known as Pomeranian Adult Links or Bull Mastiff's Adult Links ;)

Hey where did you get that pic of my cat....

Sorry to read the news PK - my kit died last year and I can't get a replacement cos I work away from home all the time. I'd be gone for months at a time and she'd be at the window within half an hour of me getting back. The damn things get in your heart :(

That just wouldn't sound right.

PK, I am so sorry to hear of your loss!
what do you do when...
I am sorry really reallly sorry..:(

:waaaaahh why must such inocent beings die? :( I could NOT imagine Holding my sookie and watching her die in my arms. I would probably have a nervous breakdown :(

[B]Sappy post here..

At the age of 19 years and 4 months (a very good long life) my oldest cat died in my arms this morning.

-------------------------------------------------
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....:(

I'm sorry for your loss. It's terribly sad when a cat dies at a venerable age. It seems like the older they get, the wiser and more soulful they become.

I lost two cats in a row because the younger (15) lost her appetite for a week when her mother died (18), and no one in my family put it together that she wasn't really eating at all. I'm glad to know you're looking out for them.

I am sorry for the lost
but it sounds like the cat had a very good life
19 years old is a very long time isn't that like 110 in human years?

i have a 1 1/2 year old cat and would want her to live to the ripe old age of 19

do you mine sharing some tips for a long life?

i keep mine indoors and feed her the premium stuff,

in the beginning from time to time she would get a UTF
and i would see blood in the litter. I linked it to the cheap food.
so i started to give her http://naturesbest.sciencediet.com/
and haven't had a problem for the last 6 months

Sorry to hear about that PK. I am dreading that day as well...

Really sorry to hear that princess has left your side,
she will be waiting for you at the rainbow bridge, frolicking and chasing butterflies in perfect health and form
:)
I always hated the part when our beloved pets leave our sides for the last time, but I always remember the great times that I was able to share with them.
