2801.0. "THEY ARE TOGETHER" by SANFAN::BALZERMA () Fri Aug 25 1989 15:46

Words cannot express what I am feeling now, but I wanted to let you
    know that Zach has gone to be with Chloe.  My only consolation is
    that they are together now just as they came into this world and
    into my life...

    You have all my sympathies. Please draw some consolation
    from the fact that the two of them had been extremely lucky
    to be with you who so lovingly took care of them. Their life
    was short but the love which you and the two of your kitties
    shared was very special and will always be a heartwarming
    memory to you when time has healed the great pain of loss
    which you feel right now.
    I wish you all the best.

    So much strength!  and love.  I hope that sometime soon new
    little felines will find their way into such a loving home.
    
    Zach's name has been added, next to Chloe's, to the Silver
    Lining Memorial Gift.  
      With sympathy,

    	Once again, condolences.  It's surely doubly hard to deal with,
    but you are right in that they are together again, and surely happy
    and at peace.  All our sympathy and support,

    OH NO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    
    
    I was really hoping that Zach wouldn't do that.
    
    I feel so bad for you.
    
    Words cannot express anything in a situation like this.
    
    Is there ANYTHING any of us can do for you?????
    
    I'm so sorry,

    I cannot thank you enough, my "feline family", for all of the support
    you have given me in the last few weeks.  I have just returned from
    a vacation in Massachusetts visiting with my family.  For the past
    week I have been surrounded by the people that love me and understand
    me and was given the opportunity to just "let go" and be comforted.
    
    I believe that there is a reason and a purpose for everything that
    happens to us, however painful.  I never could understand while
    growing up how people could become so attached and almost fanatical
    about cats.  We always had dogs. They were smarter.  They were more
    affectionate.
    
    And then came my babies.  Zach and Chloe became my world.  They
    taught me responsibility, they brought me love.  At times when it
    gets tough and I feel so sorry for myself, I ask "why me?".  I now
    know the answer. We were meant to be together on this earth, no
    matter how short a period of time.
    
    Zach and Chloe gave to me more in one year of their brief existence
    than some people receive in a lifetime.  They are in my heart, and
    in my soul.  They will always be a part of me.

    Ah yes - I grew up with dogs too.  My mother had me convinced that
    cats were 'sneaky' and unaffectionate and aloof.  (She's changed
    her mind too, BTW).  
      My first, Kathryn, taught me differently too.  And she died too
    soon also.  But she gave me a tremendous gift when she taught me
    to love and understand cats.  (well, as much as anyone understands
    the feline mind)  
      I hope that sometime soon, you'll give a loving home to some new
    FFM's (Feline Family members).  Chloe and Zack will always be alive
    as long as you care about cats.
