Theirs was a real love story. In all my years of living with cats I had never witnessed a bond like theirs. It was hard to imagine such a love between two cats. We lost Ed to kidney-failure last December. He is missed every day by his family and dear little Lily. Life is very different for her now. We do our best to keep her content with extra attention and love, as we truly do understand her loss, but there is a sadness about her that only time will heal. Our Annie has become her closest companion. I knew I could count on her.
I wish you all a beautiful Valentine's Day.
hugs, Deb
What a sweet Valentine picture. So sorry you lost Ed. Have a wonderful Valentines day!
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet picture.
ReplyDeleteThey're proof that cats have feelings.
Annie's actions are proof that cats are capable of empathy.
Now that has got my Valentine's Day off to a really good start.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that Annie is helping Lily, and in doing so is helping you to cope with losing that dear old Mr Ed. x
Such a beautiful and meaningful picture. Such love...

When I read the title of this post, I just knew it must have been about Ed and Lily. Through all of your pictures, you could see and feel the bond these two had. Incredible and so loving.....I love this Deb. Oh, what a blessing in life Ed was and Lily still is. Happy Valentine's!
ReplyDeletethat is one special and moving shot. lovely to visit you again, Helen, Darcy and Bingley xxx
ReplyDeleteThis photo will always make me smile! What love they shared. Wishing you and all the cats a very Happy Valentine's Day. Hugs from Linda and Charlie
ReplyDeleteThe shape of the pair of them in their bed does look almost heart shaped! Glad Lily is being looked after by Annie. I agree I do think animals grieve.

Beautiful photo! Perfect for Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful picture, and what lovely memories.
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day! Headbutts all around.
I love their love story. What a pair they were, what a cat Mr Ed was.
ReplyDeleteThis really is the perfect Valentine's Day photo. It is hard on us when we lose an animal friend, but it is also hard on the other animals as well. You have learned this with Lily and I have seen it also with my Emma when we lost Sylvester last year. It just takes time, no matter if you are human or animal.
ReplyDeleteAwww, poor Lily to lose her love. That is a picture to treasure!
ReplyDeleteSo happy that they had each other. I truly understand the pain of his loss to your felines and other family members. This is a picture I know you will always cherish.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet photo. Happy Valentine's Day.
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable picture. Sad that the sweethearts are now seperated :(
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's day!
Precious picture! So sad for Lily now but good that Annie is comforting her.
ReplyDeleteLosing Ed was compounded for you. His passing broke two hearts - yours and Lily's. I think that makes it harder to bear. Thank goodness Annie is there to help fill the void. The picture is a beautiful memento of their loving relationship.
ReplyDeleteTheir's was a very special relationship for cats or humans. What a wonderful love they shared.
ReplyDeleteAlthough Ed will never be replaced,
we find comfort in knowing Peach is helping Lily through her grief. There
is something very special aboutPeach. You can see it in her
eyes.
Ed has permanent place in all of our
hearts. We all loved that little man
like crazy.
We hope all of your kitties have a happy Valentine's Day and know all
of our love is with them today and
always.
Kisses and hugs
It's so sad they had to be parted. That photo says it all. :(
