How I miss him




It's been nine months to the day that we lost him.
He was quite the character, our Ed was.
He could be naughty but always got away with it.

I just have to think of him and it brings a smile to my face.
I always thought of him as a 'kind' cat.
He never lashed out at anyone or any cat.
He instantly wanted to be friends.
He made you feel like you were the most important person in the world.
He was a 'buddy' to everyone.

He used to do the silliest things; like sleep with a wooden cat in his image.

I still can hear his Siamese cry for dinner & I'll always remember his baby blue eyes.

Oh, he was a treasure and I think of him often.

"I hope you are at peace, Ed. I miss you; we all miss you. Your darling Lily missed you so much when you left us.''

'' Rest well, 'ol fella. You were a magnificent cat."
hugs, Deb

  1. He was a beauty. It is so hard to lose a pet. My GSD died in May of 2013 and I miss that dog every day.

  7. I am so very grateful you are remembering Ed this day and knowing you must indeed be very sad. I remember your posts with his photos -- so handsome. I mourn Gypsy every day, although like you, I have other dear ones to love. But some are their own special and irreplaceable friend. Ed was clearly that to you. Sending you cyber hugs today.

  10. I knew when I saw your post title, it must be about your beloved Ed. Who did not fall in love with such a noble kitty? I thought of Ed the other day and knew how much you must miss him. When our 19 yr old Boone lost a battle to cancer just months after we moved to Maine, it was with such sadness and heartbreak to say goodbye! The photos of Ed and Lily are the sweetest pictures ever! Hugs to you sweet Deb!

  14. We love Ed and miss him too, Deb.
    There was something so special about him; you fell in love with him instantly. I often think how wonderful it would have been to meet him and actually touch him!
    Follow the sun, little man. All of our love is with you.

    1. Aw, thank you Kari. I know you loved Ed. He would have loved to have met you, too. He would have sat on your lap and taken it all in. He was as soft as velvet and his ears even softer. Thank you for such a nice comment. Hugs

  15. Oh Deb, I'm so very sorry for you loss. I haven't been by in a long time, so this came as a shock. Big HUGS for you. We know how hard it is to lose a precious furbaby.

  16. Your Ed reminds me (not in appearance, but in *heart*) so much of our Jack who we also lost this year. All our cats are wonderful, but some have so much more *heart* that they leave a lasting hole in the house-hold. Peace to you, Ed... and to our Jack.

  20. Can't see through the tears to type. I am keeping watch over my sweet Violet these last weeks. She is 19 and nearing her end. Heartbreaking.
