Today, December 02, 2014 'marks' ONE year since our 11 year old Cream went missing.

NAES..

I can't believe that an entire year has gone by since you last saw your beloved Cream and I share in your heartache.

Just as I had prayed for a miracle back then as well as in the ensuing months,I still want to believe that a miracle can happen.

I've read so many stories...and have also seen them on the news...about pets that were missing for months, and in some cases years, who suddenly showed up at their homes again.

Sending you tons of very special Comfort Hugs

((((((((((((((((NAES & HER BELOVED KITTY,CREAM))))))))))))

All of my children have paws =^..^=

NAES, tears came to my eyes as I read your plaintive tribute to and story of Cream, especially the part at the end where you called out to him.

Your heartache has no bottom to it and is a pain we cannot know. Yet I hold out hope like Beastielove that your beloved boy will make his way back to you. Perhaps you should leave one bed assembled to symbolize that hope borne of love.

We'll forever pray -- never giving up -- for Cream and you to be reunited, for him to hear you call "maMa-maMa is here."

I'm so sorry, NAES.....I don't know how I could go on, with not knowing or having any closure. I wish I could make your pain go away. {{{hugs}}} But don't forget, you will see Cream again, someday, at the Bridge.

Your post brought tears to my eyes. Not knowing is painful. Chances are that someone took him in. When I was a young girl, one of our cats went missing. One year later, while playing outside in the dark with my friends, I found him lying in the gutter, still alive, but barely. I was hysterical, and My Mother and I brought him inside. Before long, he passed, and we always felt that he came home to die.

Time goes by so quickly and so slowly at the same time. I clearly remember when Cream went missing. My prayer is that someone has him and is loving him as much as you do. Sending Hugs to you. A few weeks after Cream went missing I had to let my Ethan go to the Bridge. I know he is safe. It is such an empty longing..the not knowing. Prayers for comfort and some closure for you dear NAES.

Soooo sorry ...... I take it he didn't have a computer chip for tracking?

Beastielove, dear, do you remember Dorothy TOO with her MsScoots?

She always told me to_

"keep hope alive", and still to this day, I maintain those everlasting three words~

I know...it does not seem as though one year has come and gone. Also, I lovinly DO remember more than forty different stories from the most sincere posters who told the same experiences, that you have mentioned. Several ladies actually had been through the situation with their pets after having gone missing, only to find 'them' two years later at the front door. I want to go out on the top of my game with the element of timelessness~

Miracles are always seen as courage waiting, and of course I have my heart open for that special moment. I will never give up hope.

The disappearance is just a lull of my perspective, not limited.

I have a great 'FAITH' with life's twists and turns, those are building blocks for us to gain strength through the journey. Life is and shall always remain a mystery.

~~Hopefully, you have read most of my thank yous for your original comforting spirit, not to be razzed.

~~I was nourished spoonful by spoonful each time you offered a positive outlook.

I want you to always remember `that`, if you remember nothing else from me~ Always my dear friend,

ALWAYS,

_Naes

Sweet hugs to you, lovely lady, Sammycat1.

You captured my personal voice, to Cream, as only he would know.

I still have his favorite thick cozy bedding, with layers of my cuddly personal cotton clothing, the last time I made... his last fresh snuggy own private area. Cream's body weight is still seen as I look down and I can run my hand over his outline of his body.

I have one of his beds on the top floor, that will be re-freshed.
...having his personal things, i.e., Temptations and canned foods from Pet Co, those are sealed but I have fed to the little one who lives next door...

In the beginning six months, I became physically ill. `That has mellowed somewhat.

I do not believe that would be an understatement.

What was the worse was after my husband came home (from the hospital/stroke) there was no Cream. That was the most difficult. I have mentioned to a few posters that I am thinking of adopting (maybe) one to two rescues for my husband during the holiday season.

I have not completely come to that decision, as of this week. Thank you so very much for your forever pray. AND, I have not removed that special bed that I spoke about earlier.

I am not ready. Yes, there is love in that part of the corner~plenty of love~ In closing, I would like to send my loving prayers to your husband for his health to be greatly improved.

I remember when your precious kitty was kept alive for all of those years, from a rescue. When he died, I sent your husband a note, as such a special man who loved so much, thus keeping your little furbaby absolutely alive with unconditional caregiving, along with your continuous patience.

SENDING OUR BEST TO YOUR FAMILY,

_Naes AND HUSBAND...A VERY SPECIAL ONE, at `that`.
