A Really Wordless Wednesday


Hi everyone, Katie here.

I have no words this Wednesday.  At least no words that seem right.  Our dear friend Fin, from Housecat Confidential has left this world. Our hearts are heavy...and our thoughts are with his sweet mom Meg.

Meg and Fin are like part of our family. We met them through their blog four years ago when we were just starting out.  Meg and Fin took us under their wings. As newbie bloggers, we had no idea what we were doing. They introduced us to the Cat Blogosphere, provided technical and moral support...they became our friends.

This hits especially hard and reminds us that the most beautiful things, people, experiences are temporary and fragile.  But their memory is strong, resilient and everlasting.


We love you Fin.  
We will always remember you.

  22. We are so sorry to hear about Fin. Pawhugs for everyone. When I hear of a friend going OTRB I think of this poem:
    What we have once enjoyed
    we can never lose.
    All that we love deeply
    becomes a part of us
