There is something special about animal friends. It is beyond sad when we lose one. I know what you mean, as I have been through this more than once, never getting easier. You know about my fear for Matty just a few weeks ago; he stills makes me nervous now, as I fear I am not doing enough for him. It's a little bit like being a mom, right? Cry Tammy; let it all out. But know that you did more than anyone could have, and that the kitty will forever know it. She was lucky! to have found in you the help nobody else gave her.<br />lots of hugs your way.Claushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06803540562431030465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8263927360240129050.post-81020946719130901402011-06-13T17:05:03.009+03:002011-06-13T17:05:03.009+03:00I'm so sorry for your lose.

I think what you did for sweet kitty was commendable especially knowing you couldn't truly take her in. See had the safety and love of you and your family for the last year of her life. Her kittens are now grown up and have loving and good homes thanks to you. You did a wonderful thing for her...and for your children...showing compassion to God's creatures. You should be proud of yourself, not second guessing yourself. You did a wonderful thing!Yarni Gras!https://www.blogger.com/profile/03028237893356674106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8263927360240129050.post-9269284978044955772011-06-13T08:13:15.813+03:002011-06-13T08:13:15.813+03:00Tammy,
I was so afraid you were talking of Jingles...Tammy,<br />I was so afraid you were talking of Jingles when I first read your note on my blog. Regardless, it is heart-breaking. You probably don't know this, but i could have written your post. I also had an outdoor cat that I called Kitty. A neighbor told me she had had kittens and her "owners" had moved and left her. It took a while to gain her trust, but eventually I did and she lived in my yard. Like you, I gave her food and water every day, and built a little shelter for her in the winter. I worried about her and wished I could have done more. She started grower smaller and smaller and eventually didn't make it. I cried and cried too - I probably took care of her for 5 years. She was the sweetest thing and I only wish I could have done so much more. All this to say that I understand exactly what you have gone through. I can still cry to this day but hold many fine memories. It's so hard losing these ones we love. My best to you at this sad time.<br /><br />Love,<br />SharonA Fanciful Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12558462876925565507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8263927360240129050.post-89092724545187977922011-06-13T06:03:19.593+03:002011-06-13T06:03:19.593+03:00I am so very sorry to hear about your Sweet Kitty,...I am so very sorry to hear about your Sweet Kitty, Tammy. It makes me smile to know that your kindness and warm heart made her life so much better than it would have been otherwise. The stray cat population in Kuwait is so sad, but you must know that you gave this wonderful cat so much more than she would have had otherwise. I hope you are able to realize that and know that you did a lot to do good for her. <br />Your kindness is remembered by everyone that knows you. That is part of the reason why we all love you so much. Don't ever lose that qulaity, even if there are days when all that you do does not seem like enough. <br />My thoughts are with you, as always!<br /><br />Love you, <br />ReneeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8263927360240129050.post-82680893438822235572011-06-12T21:35:10.453+03:002011-06-12T21:35:10.453+03:00My heard breaks for you, Tammy.

Too bad for all the animal suffering because of humans being indiferent. Did Jingles get along with her or did they never get together? It is tough if you want to fill in for the neglect of others and you ending up feeling guilty for not having done enough!<br />Guess you're right about that vet too; the easy way out... Sad stories and she for sure is not the only one. I just saw that you live in a 15% humidity right now; that is killing for plants, birds and animals alike. Humans can take shelter in their homes and drink enough and feed well. Life is not easy on your end. Wish you well and hope you will enjoy your vacation!<br /><br />Lots of love,<br /><br />MarietteMariette's Back to Basicshttp://mariettesbacktobasics.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8263927360240129050.post-46146161313737901582011-06-12T05:58:15.700+03:002011-06-12T05:58:15.700+03:00Your post is so full of pain Tammy.

They all, but one, had left home and we were able to love on one of them.<br /><br />He was the sweetest cat. We, too, couldn't have cats in the house and one day he came home with his paw ripped open and swollen. I tried to take him to the vet but wasn't able to. He disappeared and every day I called and called and called. Months later we found him curled up in a box. He had passed away - probably due to infection as well. <br /><br />I know the pain you are feeling. I don't think I ever cried so hard over an animal before. He was only 2 and I felt so guilty.<br /><br />Praying for you at this time!<br /><br />LucyThe Farmer's Attichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199130137787767304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8263927360240129050.post-81600838776692895462011-06-11T19:39:29.779+03:002011-06-11T19:39:29.779+03:00My heart is breaking just reading this story, Tamm...My heart is breaking just reading this story, Tammy.
