Today marks one year since I had to say goodbye to my dear, sweet, beautiful Rosie. I never knew a better friend than my Rosie. She was my loyal companion and my confidant, and she still is to this day. She was my inspiration, my muse, a role she will always play. Rosie was my angel, even while on this earth, and she will always be my angel.
I love you, Rosie, always and forever.

Our Tip of the Day:
In honor of my Rosie, today's tip will be a reminder to always remember the good times. I don't think I have to tell any of you how hard losing a furbaby is. Despite the pain of loss, though, even after they are gone, please always try to be grateful for the time and love you did get to share with your furbaby. Your are your furbaby's life, and their world revolves around you. And so, after they cross the Rainbow Bridge, I don't think your furbaby would want you to feel pain and suffering at the thought of them. So, although grief is perfectly normal and understandable, please strive to keep alive all of the wonderful, fond memories your angel furbabies gifted you during your time together.

I know what you mean. And that may or may not be what you want to hear. But what I mean is that I know about a special cat that fills your heart even after it is gone. And its not really gone. It stays in your mind and heart forever, there and not there. In the corner of your vision almost but not quite, like it is there but you can't quite see it. And you want to, but you can't.
And every time you read about a loved cat that has gone over The Bridge, you understand because you think about THAT cat and tears drip down your face and you can't type the words you want to say to that other person who lost their loved one because your eyes are all blurry and you can barely see the keyboard.
Like that, yah...
I love your drawing of Rosie. She was very special and so beautiful. I am sure she is watching over you. Sending you hugs and love.
So beautifully done, Lorianne. Your Rosie was a beauty. She also is what I refer to as a heart cat. I have had a couple in my life time. Astrid is currently that heart cat. Sending lots of love on your day of remembrance. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
Thinking of you today. We miss them every day, but the anniversary days seem harder to me. I didn't know your Rosie, but she sounds like and looks like --from your art--a beautiful kitty. I believe she is watching over you. (((hugs)))
Your love for Rosie is clear and your pain still lingers, but I agree that remembering her and the wonderful times you shared with her makes life go on.
This is a lovely post ...

That is a lovely post for Rosie. Yes, it is so darn hard to lose our fur friends. Love the picture too.
Beautiful. I understand how you feel. I still remember my sweet tuxedo cat Suzy. I lost her almost 18 years ago but I know she's still close to me. They never truly leave us.
This is such a lovely remembrance of your dear, sweet Rosie. Your tip of the day is just perfect.
This is such a beautiful post, Lorianne. We wonder if Rosie and our Moosey are friends at the Rainbow Bridge. Wouldn't that be nice? :)
What a lovely tribute to Rosie. We send you tender thoughts for this special day. Purrs
What a beautiful way to remember Rosie today. Purrs.....
Beautiful words and art. Nicky has been gone almost a dozen years and TW still cries every time she types his name. I hope he's not minding. She can't even type Angel in front of his name.
Thinking of you today and sending comforting purrs and hugs.
Anniversaries are so, so hard. Your Angel Rosie tribute is just beautiful.
Sending you gentle (((hugs)))), I so understand how hard it is. I felt the same about my Angel Bobo. Love your Rosie artwork.......she is purring with delight and is forever watching over you xoxo catchatwithcarenandcody
