NECPA in NEBRASKA Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 We had to put our 20 year old wonderful cat to sleep on 6/6. It was a terrible loss and we still cry every day because he was an amazing companion and my client's love him. Yesterday we decided that we needed another cat and went home from the Humane Society with three kittens. They are so cute, naughty and loving. One is trying to learn to type right now. They cry when I lock them out of my office, but I am obviously going to have to harden up until they get a little older. I am so glad that we got them, because they do ease the pain just a little for all of us. My son just turned 20, so it has been very hard on him to lose the pet that he grew up with as we got him when Andrew was only 2 months old. I will have to train the new guys to be good little greeters, just like the great old-timer before them. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jklcpa Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 I'm sorry for your loss. It's never easy saying goodbye, and no matter how long their life, it's never long enough. I bet the three little kittens are wonderfully entertaining. Nice that you rescued them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gail in Virginia Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 I too am sorry for your loss. It is amazing what a bond develops between us and our pets. But I am glad three little kittens got a good home! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion EA Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 I'm sorry for your loss. Our pets are part of our families. Your new chapter with kittens will entertain you and your clients. Enjoy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margaret CPA in OH Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 I, too, am sorry for the loss of your loved pet. It's so easy to love them and so hard to lose them.As for the 3 little ones, check my avatar. They can eventually be trained to be excellent paperweights, nerve soothers, watchcats, and even use the calculator! It does take time and very large desk, however, should you wish to actually accomplish work, too. Just make a tiny space and be efficient! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kcjenkins Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 You never forget the ones who are gone, but the new ones do help you to accept it. Be sure and look at the cat pix posted today. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joanmcq Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 I lost my 21 year old last year. I feel your pain at the loss of a Constant Companion. I already had three others though, one of whom sits on my clients laps and demands attention, and two twin lumps o cat that make great foot warmers in the winter (collectively known as 'the fat cats'). Your kittens will provide MUCH distraction from your loss & work! And cheers to you for adopting! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
