Oh Helen your tribute to a fantastic, amazing girl was soo lovely. It was upsetting to read but soo wonderful as well, tiggs is wonderful and always will be. A love that will be treasured forever by both of you.

Play well on the bridge sweetheart.

Helen, what a wonderful and loving tribute to Tiggy. I've shed tears for you both.

Its beautiful Helen

Gillian Harvey · « **Reply #100 on:** March 01, 2007, 19:17:09 PM »

That is a lovely tribute Helen, I must admit I was hardly able to read to the last part

- must be something in my eye! It was lovely to hear her story - and I laughed at the little 'cone-head' trotting down the street, and had a hilarious vision of her diving out the window and then clinging on to the roof tiles like some cartoon cat

What lovely memories you have, and I hope it has helped to write about them - I think its a good way to get through the grief somehow. There will come a time when you can remember her without it hurting so much.

You did the right thing.

Helen - sweetheart. Have just caught this thread. Am so so sorry. My heart goes out to you.

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #93 on:** February 27, 2007, 14:50:41 PM »

Thank you to those lovely people who sent me the beautiful flowers, it was a lovely and unexpected surprise. They are on my windowsill and each time I look at them I will try to remember the good times I had with Tiggy without feeling sad

clarenmax · « **Reply #92 on:** February 27, 2007, 13:46:52 PM »

I agree with everyone else Helen, Tiggy knew it was time to go, and you put your feelings aside to do what was best for her.

Tiggy knows that this was your final act of love and kindness for her, and I know she'll be watching down from Rainbow Bridge and be upset that her mummy is so upset about what she had to do. She'll be with you forever and I'm sure she'll let you know that shortly, whether it be a rainbow, or some other little sign that only she could do

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #91 on:** February 27, 2007, 13:29:49 PM »

I agree with the others, you made a terribly hard decision because you loved her so much.

The next few days, weeks and even months will be hard but although it is painful, cherish the memeories, let Tiggy stay with you in your heart forever.

Christine (Blip) · « **Reply #90 on:** February 27, 2007, 13:24:40 PM »

Desley is right Helen, you did the best for Tiggy as you always have throughout her long and happy life.

Thinking of you at this time...

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #89 on:** February 27, 2007, 13:06:10 PM »

Helen, you truly have nothing to be sorry about, you fought so many battles with her and when it came to the one you knew she couldn't beat, you listened to her. That is something to be proud of, you loved her enough to put your feelings aside and do what was best for her, and this truly was. You would only have had reason to be sorry if you had let her linger on and suffer, and you didn't. She knows how much you loved her and that you did this for her.

Beccles · « **Reply #88 on:** February 27, 2007, 13:05:45 PM »

Thirded. Tiggy has had so much unconditional love and care throughout her long, wonderful life... she will never have any doubt of your love and care and intentions. She's safe and sound now and will be forever so. It's you we've got to look after now, Helen.

Well said JackSpratt

JackSpratt · « **Reply #86 on:** February 27, 2007, 12:54:08 PM »

Helen, there is absolutely NO way Tiggy would've thought you would do anything other than what's best for her. I've said it before and I meant it, your love for her came through in every post you made about her.

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #85 on:** February 27, 2007, 12:29:33 PM »

Just wanted to thank everyone for all the support, I'm finding it quite hard at the moment and am walking round like a loony with her collar in my hand. When her brother Benji died I was angry and kept saying it wasn't fair that he had been taken, this time all I can say is I'm sorry as it was me who chose to let her go, I hope she understands that I did it because I love her so much and din't want her to suffer...

She's probably with the Proot now, running classes on "Pillow Trampling Technique" for all the younger cats. xx

This made me smile, quite an achievment!

Beccles · « **Reply #84 on:** February 27, 2007, 11:28:21 AM »

I'm so unbelievably sorry, Helen - I've just arrived on this thread, got home from hospital yesterday.

I'm crying for you and for Tiggy. She had the most wonderful life with you, you were a fantastic mum to her.

I really hope that you're OK, I'm sure you know that there are dozens and dozens of us out here thinking of you and wishing you well - the next few weeks are going to be hard ones.

Many, many hugs.

Rosella moggy · « **Reply #83 on:** February 26, 2007, 22:52:19 PM »

Hi Helen

I had my lovely Dingle for almost 21 years from a young kitten. When she passed away 20 Oct 1997, I felt her tangible presence around the house. For about 6 months, I just glimpsed her out of the corner of my eye. I learned not to turn my head to look and found great comfort in that for the first few months which was of course the most painful time. Hope you find a similar way of getting through this.

Reynard · « **Reply #82 on:** February 26, 2007, 22:08:40 PM »

Helen, I've only just seen this thread - I'm so sorry to hear about Tiggy, It's got me reaching for the tissues. You gave your girl a wonderful life and although the decision to let her go must have been hard, it was the best thing you could have done for the little sweetheart.

Hugs and purrs,

Witty, Toby & Pearl

So sorry to hear your news Helen. Such a sad sad time. RIP dear Tiggy.

Helen, I'm so sorry to hear about beautiful Tiggy, mine and my husband's thoughts were with you today.

I know it's hard to find comfort, but you were a fantastic Mum.

She's probably with the Proot now, running classes on "Pillow Trampling Technique" for all the younger cats.

Helen, I am absolutely devastated to hear about beautiful Tiggy - my heart goes out to you.

She was the most loved girl I have ever known and like many others I felt like I knew her and she was part of our extended family. Take care of yourself Helen. I am here for you. xxx

Helen, you will see that rainbow and you will feel her there.

It rained on the day my Renie passed so everytime it rains now I think she is with me.

Im so sorry it had to be this way, I just wanna give you a big hug.

Thinking of you, as is everyone else. cc

Honey, I can't imagine the pain you are going through. I so wish I could make the pain go away. We're all here for you, and if you want to chat just give me a all ok? Will PM you my number if you just want a good cry and know we all love and care for you both. xx

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #73 on:** February 26, 2007, 18:52:05 PM »

Just wanted to thank everyone for all the messages... I've had my little girl since I was 10 years old and I'm 30 next year, it just won't be the same without my baby, the house feels so empty without her

She is being individually cremated so she will be coming home next week, I kept looking out for a rainbow today but haven't seen one yet, I asked her to let me know she got there safely.

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #72 on:** February 26, 2007, 16:52:31 PM »

Helen,

First chance I've had to check on this today ..... I am so sorry. I can't begin to imaine how you must be feeling. I'm sure there are no words that will be able to comfort you at the moment but we are all for you when you want us.

Sending you lots of love and my sincere condolences for the loss of a very special furbabe.

RIP Tiggy

Oh Helen, I've only just logged on and was dreading hearing this news - I can only echo what others have said, that Tiggy touched our hearts and that we felt we knew her personally. She is at peace, but now you have to come to terms with it, which, knowing how much you loved her, is going to be hard, but were are all here to support you if you need us.

gailjackson · « **Reply #70 on:** February 26, 2007, 16:41:16 PM »

Helen, I'm so sorry...we all understand and most us of have been through this....you take care of yourself,
