Had a home check last night for the adoption of my kitty. Wish me luck everyone because I really hope I pass and need all the luck I can get! :)

Good luck Kerry! I just had a home check for a kitty on Saturday and got her on Sunday!! She's adorable, 8 year old semi longhaired tortoiseshell. So affectionate. I'm happy again after recently losing my dear old cat. Have you seen a kitty you want?

Good luck,Kerry!
Good luck,Kerry!
Yeah she's a 4 year old Ragdoll called Gracie and it was love at first sight for her. I am so nervous! Thank you for the luck everyone! I'll keep you all informed :)
And congratulations on your new furbaby, DianeAlice! Sounds like a gorgeous kitty :)
Mod
Hopefully your new best friend
Aw sounds lovely Kerry, fingers crossed.
Hope you get her Kerry, and congrats DianeAlice on your new Kitty!
Thanks Sue! She's settled in really well : )

DA, that's great! Kerry, your news is exciting too! Hope it turns out purrfectly for everyone!
Heaven received a new angel yesterday afternoon. Our Topsy was finally taken by the bladder cancer. We believe it went to her lungs as she started having difficulty breathing Monday night. Our vet came to the house and helped her over the Rainbow Bridge. The loss of this kitty is devastating, and I believe a part of me died with her. I will miss laying on the floor with her staring into my face with those most beautiful green eyes. "The look". All animal owners know "the look". She managed one more "look" for me yesterday AM, before the sparkle left for good. She will be in my heart always until I see her again.
Oh I'm so sorry Chris, that's very sad news. It's heartbreaking to lose a furry friend. I know how you feel, she'll always be in your heart.My new kitty is called Buffy. It's really strange because many years ago we had a tortoiseshell which we named Buffy. And now we have Buffy #2. as that was already her name! I put a couple of photos of her on my profile page : )

Christine, there are no words that can describe the pain and suffering you must be going through. Any animal lover will totally understand and have compassion for the situation you are dealing with. Enrique and I both send our love and hugs. May Topsy rest in peace with no pain in Heaven.She will always be remembered...and be in your heart and memories forever.
Love Sue OXOX
So sorry for your loss Chris.
Sending lots of hugs xx
We'll all be thinking of you xx

We love our animals with all our heart, they are our children.
Our thoughts and hugs with you x
RIP Topsy
Christine, having always had animals as part of the family, I feel your pain. Even if you're prepared, you're never prepared. So sorry for your loss.
Big tears...Topsy was a special girl.
Mod
And
I am in talks with an agent and publicist of a major author at the moment.
And a favourite character...
Thank you, guys. It really helps to talk to other animal people, and you all understand that. Yes, she was our child.

She had a grand life with you, was superbly loved, and she'll always be with you. You must have an amazing vet, and I'm glad Topsy was in her home. You have my deepest sympathy.
Xoxo, Brenda
Christine,I am so sorry for your loss. Unless you are an animal person,you cannot understand the loss that is felt. Sending you good energy.
Christine I am so deeply deeply sorry. Topsy will be waiting for you in rainbow bridge. You are all in my thoughts. Topsy and my Taz can play together while they wait for us <3 if you need to talk then I'm here
Though I'd best just nip on and say a quick hi. I've been really busy for the past few days doing some house renovations, so please excuse my absence. So sorry to hear about the loss of your cat, Chris. I know she meant a lot to you.

Ah, thanks, Kerry, so sorry for your loss of Taz (love that name). Topsy was 13. How old was Taz? When do you find out about your adoption application. Getting a new kitty is better than getting a new car in my opinion.
Mod
A group without members is no group so say your piece, please - thanks.

Where's your note, David?

Thanks, David. A big loss indeed.
I love this group, wouldn't change a thing.
Love all the different threads, something to appeal to everyone.

I also think we shouldn't be opening threads just for any topic. I am guilty of that too. What happens is that new threads have an initial burst then they die down.
The chatter thread should be a catchall thread for any and every topic except those that have serious legs.
I myself have reduced my time on here drastically.

Chris sorry to hear about your loss.
Christine wrote: "Heaven received a new angel yesterday afternoon...."So sorry to hear about your loss Christine. Our animals are such an integral part of our lives, each and every one will always have a piece of our hearts.
Janet wrote: "I'd just found out tonight that another regular member has left the group. Someone who I thought was enjoying it here. The reasoning being that there are just too many threads to get around. I have had no problems with the group. Belonging to two groups, one thing I did was to stop email notifications. That was just to much email for me. So I just check notifications on the Goodreads site.
There are a lot of threads, but I don't find it a problem. I visit the ones I like most and occasionally look in on others. I've been busy for the past few days (sorry Chris, I'll forge a note later), so my absence has nothing to do with the dynamics of this group. I have been in other goodreads groups with very few threads, to my mind they are the ones that go stale, and consequently the ones I end up not visiting.
Christine so sorry for your loss I can understand your devastation :( I still miss every one of mine and although I love the pets I have now they will never replace the ones I lost in my heart I just make space for the new ones.Sorry I know someone else was rejoicing getting a new kitty too - I also have a tortoiseshell buffy cat she is the first cat we have had that climbed the curtains and terrorised the dogs lol wish her well in her new forever home
with regard to the number of threads I don't mind them. I go into the ones i want to and don't go into the ones i don't want to. on some occasions i will venture in to new threads that i previously haven't visited cos im bored or i cant reach my book or am just being nosey that day
