Whiskers & Omarr
As some of you know I lost Whiskers, my almost 2 year old quadriplegic cat, last month. Two days ago I had to put my oldest cat Omarr to sleep. He would have been 18 years old April 10th (an Aries like me!). I had him since he was about 3 mo. old - the longest I have had any pet - and much longer than a lot of relationships I've had! So I am really grieving! He was not handicapped(started having congestive heart failure and had kidney failure which had gotten much worse) - but you all know me through Whiskers and I hadn't posted about Whiskers on the Rainbow Bridge forum, so I thought I would do it now, together with Omarr. I asked Omarr to watch over Whiskers in heaven - that's the one good thing.

Awww....Karen, I know this is hard. I am sure Omar being there helped you with Whiskers' loss. What a wonderful long life he had and you got to share with him. He knew that Whiskers needs him and they are surely together. Please take care of yourself.

Re: Whiskers & Omarr
Omarr lived a very long life. When a pet has been with you that long, it is a big, big loss. You will probably look back on the years when you had Omarr as kind of an epoch in your life. I am sorry for your loss.

I'm so sorry for your loss Karen!! I have a pitbull "Lovely" who is 10yrs old. I love her so much sometimes I think it might be unhealthy!! I have no idea what I will do when her time comes so I know this must be really hard on you!!
Re: Whiskers & Omarr
I am sorry for your losses. Take comfort in the fact that you loved them everyday and that they are together again and happy. You will see them again someday.

Re: Whiskers & Omarr
Thankyou both, Les and ICH2929 - I appreciate your messages! I appreciate every word everyone has written. I haven't been on this website much lately - right now I am struggling with trying to find a new job as my hours have been reduced at my current job and I am getting further and further behind in my bills! But someday when things settle down and I am in a position to handle it (and by that I mean financially) - I would like to adopt another handicapped pet - as it was SUCH a meaningful experience for me!! I kind of ended up with Whiskers unexpectedly and had NO IDEA what to do!? - but the fine people at this website guided me through the two years I had with him - my sweet innocent boy who could not have deserved the problem he was given!? I would never have guessed the love I proceeded to have!! I wish I could have had him much longer... But like I said, someday I will take in another handicapped pet.
