(It’s Caturday and mommy seems upset. She’s in and out and on the phone a lot. Finally she settles down and both girls check on her and offer purrs)
What’s goin’ on mommy? Why did you go up to mr. W’s house? Is Buddy okay?
No baby, nothing’s okay.
What happened mommy? Why were there so many peeps outside and all those big trucks with flashin’ lights?
Oh girls, mr. W died sometime last night. All those flashing lights were the ambulance, police, fire trucks and coroner. They came to take mr. W away for the last time.
Our furiend Buddy.
Where’s Buddy? What happened to Buddy mommy?
That’s what I was trying to find out girls.
He must’a been so scared with all that commotion and all those peeps. He’s not very furiendly to begin with. And loud noises really scare him. And he’s mean to peeps he knows, I’s can only ‘magine how he’d be with all those strangers.
Yes, Raena, you’re right about all those things. I’m upset, because they called our local pound to come and catch him and take him away. I know we can’t keep him, and he probably wouldn’t be able to be rehomed. But at least he could have been with someone familiar who cared about him at the end.
Did Buddy go to heaven with sis Lexi?
Yes baby, he did. They declared him feral cuz of the way he was acting and shot him. Sometimes I hate our town and these back water people and their attitudes towards animals. Mr. W’s family didn’t wanna bother with Buddy, and he hadn’t put anything in writing stating his wishes or naming a person to make those decisions. It’s so frustrating when people don’t think about their pets and what will happen to that pet if they die or can no longer take care of them. And of course, this all hit me pretty hard. I do have a plan in place for ya’ll, but the person that was supposed to take care of it, recently died as well. I’m having trouble finding someone to replace them. But don’t you girls worry about that, I’ll get it worked out.
Well then mommy, that just means you can’t leave us.
Me agrees with Raena mommy. You’ll just have to stay right here with us.
I want nothing more girls. We are so blest to have each other.
You got that right mommy. Me might hiss and growl at Raena every now and then, but me is glad she’s here. Pest or not, me does luv her.
Fanky fanks sissy. I’s luvs you too. We are a very blest furmily to have so much luvs.
Yep Raena, we are. And we have so many pawsum furiends. What happened with Buddy is pawful, but it happens every day. Ifin we could urge you to do one thing, it would be to make purrpurrations fur your furry furmily members befur it’s too late. We are all blest to have so much, but none of us are guaranteed a tomorrow. This discussion may not be the most pawpular, or cheeriest discussion you could have, but it’s one of the most luvvin’ conversations you can have. Whether you’ve spent one day or ten plus years with you furry furmily member, purrparin’ fur their future, whatever that might be, is just as luvvin’ and purrtant as puttin’ fresh food and water down every day.
On another note, would like say fank you to those who have donated to mommy’s dental fundraiser. We’re still a long ways from the goal, but we’re purrayin’ and believin’ that mommy can hold out till we can get enuff to at least get rid of the teeth causin’ so much pain and infection. We purray the infection doesn’t spread and get outta control befur that happens. Ifin you would like to help us, you can donate directly to our PayPal usin’ our email address: lexi.dezi@yahoo.com or by clickin’ here to donate thru the fundraiser.
We also wanna say fanky fank you all fur bein’ our furiends. Each day when we purray fur all of you, our hearts swell with joy. Just a few short years ago, we could have never ‘magined bein’ so blest with so many wonderful and caring furiends. We might not have anypawdy local that cares ‘bout us, but we do have all of you. Mommy says any time we don’t post on one of our regular days, there’s been an email or two from one or more of you checkin’ in on us.
That’s right Raena. We do have the bestest furiends in the universe. Each of us are blest. Sometimes ya’ just gotta stop a minute and see ‘em. So we’re remindin’ ya’ to take a minute today and everyday to give thanks fur the blessings in your lives. We’re also joinin’ the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies. And don’t furget to join us tomorrow fur Service Cat Monday. We got some great questions to answer. Me almost furgot; after our last posty, somepawdy asked how high our ceilings are. We looked at the buildin’ plans and then mommy measured as good as she could cuz there was a little confusion ’bout the plans. Anyways, our ceiling’s be ’bout 12-14 feet high. Yep, Raena is a long tall kitty girl.
Till the next time………………………………………Be Blest!!!
Have you (your human) made preparations for your (you/pet) in the event they outlive you?
If so, is it in writing or a verbal agreement?
Do you think it’s important to have it in writing?
Dezi: Vibrant Blue
Raena: Navy Blue
Mommy A: Black
Luv and Hugs and Kitty Kisses

Oh, poor Buddy. He certainly deserved another chance. At least he’s safe from harm now that he’s over the Bridge. We’ll be praying for your mom to get her teeth taken care of. We all love you girls! ❤️❤️

I have leaky eyes and a sad frown, while reading about Angel Buddy. I have no words, other than I am outraged at what was done to him.

There is no justice, they took the easy way out killing Buddy. Evil pieces of total cr** (sorry) There is no justice for animals. God Bless you Buddy and may their God forgive them because I never ever will.

Buddy was a beautiful cat. It was not his fault that he was scared by all the noise and lights. It is not fair that he had to suffer because no one understood how to help him. We are crying tears for him and you girls

It absolutely breaks our hearts and mom’s heart too what happened to Buddy. We can’t believe they shot him and did not humanely euthanize him. That is downright cruel. And what a handsome boy he was. Our mommy and daddy have made arrangements for us in their will with enough money for our care being left to the person they have designated to take care of us. Thank you for hopping with us.
