Irreplaceable

Our Charlie cat passed away yesterday morning. Chris and I are heartbroken but it is a relief not to see him suffer anymore.

Please hug your furry loved ones extra tight today for us, and keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

I am sooooo sorry to hear of Charlie's passing - it's an impossible thing to go through - but stay strong and have faith that your baby isn't hurting any longer. If there's anything any of us can do, your internet family is right here with you - feeling your pain.

[--Deb]

Oh, no . . . I'm so sorry!!

[Karen]

I am so sorry about Charlie!

[Pam]

I'm so sorry about Charlie. I know you all loved him.

[Jody]

I'm so sorry to hear about your cat. Sending lots of hugs your way!

[Laura]

oh oh oh!!!

I've been on vacation and just came back to this.

I'm soooo very sorry. Sending you hugs and warm fuzzy thoughts.

[Esther]

Oh I'm so very, very sorry....I just can't imagine what you must be feeling....our pets are integral parts of our family too and I know we'll be devastated the day they aren't with us....you'll be in our thoughts/prayers.

[Jane]

I am so sorry. I know how painful it is to lose such a precious member of the family. Lots of hugs.

[whitney]

Oh, no. I am so, so sorry. I can't even imagine how you must be feeling. I will be hugging Ren and Stimpy lots today (even though they don't quite understand what hugs are for).

::hugs::

Goodbye, Charlie.

[Greeley]

So sorry. It's a horrible wrenching feeling, I know.
Just think of all the good he managed in his too short orange life.
You were a great spokescat Charlie.

[Cookie]

Oh, honey, I am so sorry.

While it is heartbreaking, your Charlie is no longer suffering and is now at peace. You did everything you could for him and gave him a happy, safe and loving family to call his own.

When that tiny voice of guilt calls to you, please remember how much you did for him and know that you and Chris were the best cat parents you could be.

Precious and I are sending cat hair covered love to you all. *hugs*

[Sarah]

I am so very sorry for Charlie's passing, Debby. Cats know how to leave the party with their dignity intact, so I'm sure it was the right time for him to go before his pain became unbearable to all of you, but it's awfully hard to say goodbye. I wish you all peace and time to remember all the good moments you had with him over the years.

[Susan]

My deepest sympathy to both of you on the loss of Charlie. Even though you knew it was going to come, it's so hard when it finally does. I know you have some fabulous memories of Charlie, and they will get you through this difficult time. The measure of your sadness is the depth of your love. (hugs)

[Erika]

Hi, I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of Charlie. He was lucky to have you, Chris and Timmy. Our thoughts are with you guys.

So sorry to hear about Charlie. He was the best spokescat.

[Sydney]

Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear about Charlie. I know how hard it is, even when you know it's going to come. I'll be thinking of you and Chris and Timmy. *hugs*

[Sheepish Annie]

When I saw on Bloglines that you'd posted, I had a very, very sad feeling. I hoped for something else...but I knew. I am so sorry for your loss and you can be sure that there will be some extra snuggles for the kitties here tonight. Charlie was so special and knew he was loved right up to the end. And still does, I believe. ::hugs::

[hege]

Oh I'm so very, very sorry. The pain of losing an animal, to me anyway, is nearly unbearable. Your whole family is in my thoughts and prayers. remember its okay to grieve as hard as you need to for your loss.

[Chris]

*BIG HUG* I am SO sorry to hear about Charlie. *sniff*

Debby, I'm so sorry for your loss of Charlie. Even if you are know that it is imminent, it's very hard to lose a loved family pet. You are in my thoughts.

[sarah]

Oh, Debby. I've been there. That strange, painful combination of relief and sorrow. I am so sorry. Why do we do this to ourselves? I noticed last week that Dyson was beginning to look like an old cat.

We do it because we need to love and be loved. Have a hug.

[Martha H]

Awww, I'm sorry. You guys were just the best parents to him.

Debby, So sorry about Charlie. It's always hard when the furry family suffers, and it's hard when they leave us.

[Marji]

I'm so sorry about your kitty. It is a deep, deep pain (I know from experience). Give yourselves time and permission to feel it and you will get to a better place.

[lynne s of oz]

Oh dear, so sorry to hear about Charlie! You, Chris and he have struggled for so long. Hugs.

[Lisa G]

Oh Debby- Our hearts go out to you, Chris and Timmy. Irreplaceable is absolutely correct. I've hugged the girls and buried my faces in the bellies (always goes over well--LOL) in Charlie's memory. May you remember the beauty of a single paw, the perfection of a nap in a sunbeam and that amazing personality "quirk" that he convinced you was not annoying but cute. Thoughts of hand baths and wet noses-LG, Millie and Bailey.

[Nikki]

:*( I'm so sorry... Pepper, Bartholamew and I send love and headbutts to y'all...

[Shannon]

Oh, Debby, I'm so sorry. Trigger and I send you lots of hugs.

[rhelynn]

:( Sending good wishes your way from me and my kitty girls!

[Felicia]

I am so, so very sorry for your loss. I am sending positive thoughts your way.

[Meredith]

I'm so sorry about your loss--sending hugs your way!

[keri]

I'm so sorry to hear that, sending big hugs to you all.

[Lynne]

I'm so sorry, Debby. Our pets are the best people, aren't they? Will be thinking of you during the days ahead.

[Beth]

Debby, I'm so sorry about Charlie. I hope you are all doing okay.

[Cindy D]

I remember the feeling of loss of a pet. It's always so hard........

[Kendra]

I've only just seen your post. I'm so sorry to hear about Charlie. You always wrote about him so well in your blog that I almost feel I know him. It was always clear that he was very loved cat and I'm sure he knew that.

[Sue]

I'm so sorry, Debby ~ I'm grateful for the love and comfort he brought to you while he was with you. Deo gratias.

[Holly of HollYarns]

I am so sorry about the loss of your baby! It hurts so much when we lose our furry babies. When I get sad thinking about my dear Cyrano, I remind myself of all the love and good times we had together. Hang in there!
