Ellie had a good life. She will rest in peace, especially knowing that you will give a good home to a new cat soon.
RIP.

Yes like everyone else, Ellie had a wonderful home for 20 years. I am sorry for you loss in such short period of time. We are so helpless when the time comes yet we have no choice but to accept it. Accepting with grace and love is the best thing we can do for our little babies and to remember them. Thank you for sharing the wonderful picture of Ellie.
She had a queens bed so plush. When its my time, I wish I could go like that.
Sincerely,

So sorry to hear about Ellie. You've been through a lot this month.
But what is it about pets named Ellie? My first dog as an adult was named Ellie, a randomly bred dog who was going to be drowned in a river if I didn't take her, and she lived to be 17, robust till the end. Maybe every pet should be named Ellie.
A new shelter kittie when you're ready will be thrilled to live in your home.

Sorry for your loss.
I just went through this very thing with my dear Tasha girl in April. It's hard, I know.

Lisa - I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. What a long, love-filled like Ellie had on earth with you and your family. I hope you find comfort in your memories of the sweet fluff-girl.

You have a healthy attitude, though.

You poured so much love into her final days and her 20 years. It isn't easy even if you know they are ready to leave. Rejoice in what made her special and how much love you gave her and got back.Amanda

Aw Lisa - sorry to hear of Ellie's passing. Even when we know it's coming it's still very difficult to lose a family member. Thanks for sharing the wonderful stories and pix of your felines. You guys are wonderful parents and we can't wait to see pix of the new kitty and Pearl in the next chapter of your lives.
((hugs))Dar

I'm so sorry for your loss
I'm all choked up now, looking at my little Ruthie curled up sleeping next to me. I think it's wonderful you've already made the decision to open your home to a cat in need. I wish you much strength these next few days.

Lisa,
Sorry to hear about Ellie's passing. She'll joing the other TE fur kids at the Rainbow Bridge, and will soon be chasing butterfiles and savoring sunbeams. Remember the good days. But know she will always have a warm spot on your heart.
