WAFFLES: Hello, earth to Boss! Are you there, Boss? Come in, Boss.
WAFFLES: It's been two whole years since we had to say goodbye. I know Glogirly still really misses you, Boss. She says there will never be another cat like you.
I want you to know that the present you sent her has helped make her heart happy again. Ellie even looks a little bit like you, Boss. I told her she can't tell me what to do though because YOU'LL always be the Boss. But I've been teaching her stuff like how to watch the birds and bunnies, how to chase bugs. I even taught her how to play fetch and sit on Gloman's lap.
Sometimes I try to steal her breakfast, you know, like I used to do with you. And she even lets me, just like you did.
WAFFLES: I know you're not coming back, Boss. But this will always be your home and we'll always be your family.
PS - I'm still taking good care of your frog toy and the purple fuzzy heart.
In Glogirly's words...
Three years ago we said goodbye to our sweet Katie girl. I think about her everyday as the wind softly blows through the pine trees and her wind chime sings its beautiful song.
I'm so grateful to have been able to share Katie with our friends and readers. When I'm missing her, I just come here and find so many wonderful memories though the pages of our blog and the kind comments left by so many of you.
It's hard to believe it will soon be three years that sweet Ellie joined our family. Thank you for welcoming her into your hearts and inboxes. She's pure joy and a such gift to our family. I think Katie is smiling.
Forever loved.
Forever missed.

ReplyDeleteWe never stop missing those we have loved so dearly. Hugs sent on this sad anniversary.
ReplyDelete😿
ReplyDeleteLove and hugs to you all.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to lose a heart cat. We miss Katie, still. And we can only imagine how much harder it is for all of you--though we love Ellie for Waffles! He needed a cat to love on him!
ReplyDeleteSome cats touch us more deeply than others and it makes their passing that much harder.
ReplyDeleteI do hope the memories make it easier to accept.
I also hope the other cats help you heal a bit too.
Purrs, Julie
Hugs and purrs on this remembrance day.
ReplyDeleteI have one pic of Angel Katie, since she hid in the closet when I visited your mountain aerie, now a number of years ago.
Time goes by in a blink of an eye. I know that all too well myself. I sure do miss dear Katie and always will.
ReplyDeleteHugs
ReplyDeleteKatie was such a beautiful girl. Glogirly's best anniversary present. She had patience with Waffles and showed him the ropes and her rules of the household but she also showed how she did love him. And Waffles loves her so much. His Boss. His big sister smiling down on him and new girl Ellie❤️
ReplyDeleteSending you hugs as you remember your sweet girl. XO
ReplyDeleteKatie was one of a kind and very special. We miss her too!
ReplyDeleteKatie was one of a kind, for sure. <3 With all of Waffles' patient tutoring, Ellie will grow up to be a wise kitty indeed!
