Puffin a few months before she died

The only thing that I don’t like about Cats is the fact that their life span is so much shorter than my own. Which means that you and I have, at some point, to face the inevitability of losing our beloved cat companion. I’m writing this post to help anyone with a sick cat or anyone going through the grief of losing a cat friend.

When my first cat Puffin died (she’s in the picture on my shoulder) I felt as though I had lost my other half. Many non Animal people cannot understand the strong feelings that a person has towards their Animal Companion and can be unfeeling out of ignorance, to say the least. So keep away from them when you’re grieving. Surround yourself if you can, with ‘animal people’ who will understand what you are going through.

There are a couple of online resources for anyone with a sick or dying animal or for anyone grieving for an animal companion they are: www.petloss.com    www.aplb.org

I had the good fortune, when Puffin died, to be put in touch with an Animal Psychic.  I was reassured by her, that Puffin had become a magnificent creature in another realm entirely, she had transformed into something more akin to a Lion.  The person the Psychic was concerned about was me!  That was probably the worst time of my life for a whole load of reasons and it was as though Puffin was guiding me through that difficult period and probably still is, from wherever she lives now.

I am in touch at present with an Animal Communicator called Pea Horsley, who can contact your beloved Cat Companion in spirit, if you so desire.  You can contact Pea at her website  Animal Thoughts  

Pea can communicate with living Animals as well, to help you to understand their issues, like general cat care or with things like finding a lost cat, or with your cat’s health and your cat’s behaviour.

Here’s a beautiful and inspiring poem that’s often posted on the Feline Leukemia site: www.felineleukemia.org  This site is well worth visiting, full of care and love, also very infomative on caring for cats with FELV

We who choose to surround ourselves with lives more temporary
than our own,
Live within a fragile circle,easily and often breached.
Unable to accept its awful gaps.
We still would have it no other way    

I’m posting a funny cat video here which might help to cheer you up a bit, there’s nothing like laughter to help with healing, though time is the greatest healer of all.
