    Lisa: I just came across this thread. I'm so sorry to hear you have lost Lydia. The stories you tell are wonderful -- and she sure was beautiful to look at, too. Thanks for sharing her with us, and for rescuing her so long ago. Looks like it was a wonderful kitty life.
    HUGS.

    Just came across this, Lisa, and am so sorry to learn that Lydia is no more. She had a good, happy life.

    ((((((((Lisa)))))))))

    Sorry to hear the news about Lydia. May she find peace at the Rainbow Bridge with the other TE kitties. I still miss my little gray tabby Erin, who had a shorter than normal life. They do work their way into our hearts, fur balls that they are.

    Thank you all- such thoughtful support.

    Today is our first day without Lydia. So sad and still many tears, but we told stories of how good she was to friends in our favorite cafe this morning, and then we dedicated our bike ride to Lydia. I sense that Lydia's special 'goodness effect' is reaching beyond her death like ripples on a pond, and in fact is already working to transform our sadness into happy positive memories of her. She would want us to be happy when we think of her, so we are working hard to make that happen.

    Wow, Lisa - I finally got to check this thread for an update and I'm sad to read your news. It sounds like her passing was as all cats should have it; at home, in bed and surrounded by the humans they loved the most.

    Lydia sounds like she was one amazing cat. If it weren't for the age separation, I would wonder if she wasn't a sister to our cat. The looks, so many similiar traits... maybe our Kitty is one of Lydia's descendents? If so, take comfort that many of her good traits (and her good looks) live on in those kittens she had.
