Saying "goodbye"

[Khiori]

I wasn't sure where to put this. Either here or Rainbow Bridge. But my kitty has not returned and knowing the area we live in most likely she has since perished. We got her about three weeks after we got married. We found her at church during a revival. She was just a tiny baby wandering from her litter. We named her Keokeo because she was white at the time.

Keokeo never forgave us for the dogs. She hated them. However, patience paid off for Leo and he made a dear friend of her. We used to joke that she only liked Leo. Even more than us.

She was my little shadow and I miss her. But I don't think I will ever see her again this side of 'The Bridge'.

She was 11 years old.

Rachel,

How hard this must be for you. I think that "not knowing" is actually worse than death. I'm sending you prayers, and also am sending prayers that Keokeo is safe.

Hugs,

Annie

Oh Rachel, I agree with Annie....it's the not knowing that's the worst. I'm so sorry she hasn't returned. She looks like a beautiful kitty. Sending big {{{{HUGS}}}} for you.

I'm so sorry about KeoKeo kitty.

The not knowing IS the worst. I'll pray that wherever she is that she's safe.

Oh, Rachel!!! I know you have GOT to be heartbroken!!! I know you'll not ever give up on her comin' home, either! I sure couldn't!

Prayers and hugs for her and you! {{{{HUGS}}}}

Thank you all for the well wishes. Sean (hubby) is holding to the idea that maybe KeoKeo found a new family to live with and is happy. I could see that happening here too. I have such a problem with deep depression that I have to free her in my mind so I don't get drawn back into that dark despair. I have turned her over in my mind to God's providential care - whichever direction that might be (life or death).

I know where you are coming from...Our NutzyCat disapeared April 2003. I never found out what happened to him. He adopted us, however, when he was an older kitten, maybe about 6 months or so. He just started showing up and at some point we just decided to keep him. We only had him a few years but he was such a loving cat and great with the kids. I try to think that maybe he found another family to adopt...other thoughts are far too disturbing. So I feel for you. Not knowing is hard. I guess you just have to think of the positive things that could have happened instead of the negative like you said.
