Still grieving our beautiful Willow

...

It is 2 months now that our beautiful cat, Willow, has been missing. I can hardly bear that my previous cat, Angel, similar in colour and fluffy fur, also disappeared nearly 2 years ago. Both were sterilised, tatooed, inoculations up to date, and Willow micro-chipped. All our searching and asking has unearthed no clues.

Our heats ache with missing Willow's sweet and playful personality. She was a real lady. She had these cute little paws with tufts of fur sticking out between her toes. I keep wondering, does she live on in someone else's home or ...?

Noella - I didn't know that Willow had gone missing. That is so sad. I well remember when you lost Angel and how much Willow eased your heartache then. To think that Willow has also gone missing is incredible.

I guess after two months you don't really hold out much hope for her return. Although a Brisbane family has just had their little dog returned to them from Melbourne. It was missing for nine YEARS!

Noella ...*your name is so beautiful*,

I'm so sorry for your loss of lovely Willow. And you're still within that time-frame of hoping for her return. It's certainly possible ~ I will hope with you.

I followed you over here from Capt. Dave's, where it's always enjoyable to read your thoughtful comments. He's just the best, isn't he?

As a (multiple) cat lover of many years, believe me I know just how heartbreaking this can be...it's always better to know what's happened to them...

Dear Alice, Maura and Cogidubnus, your kind comments are very much appreciated. It is always a comfort when others understand the loss of a much-loved pet.

Maura, yep, Captain Dave is THE BEST!

A lovely little cat lives here with us - LilyKay. She has the same sweet little paws. My first cat was Jax - I thought I would guard my heart from falling in love with another kitty we he was lost - they are too cavalier I thought. LilyKay came as my little girl's kitten. What is it about cats? I admit that I love her as well.
I am so sorry for your loss. ~D
