Title: SAD REASON TO BE ASKED TO BRING IN CATS.
Post by: Ela on May 17, 2008, 08:22:19 AM

Until a couple of weeks ago a gentleman only had one but his sister died and he took on her cat, yesterday was her funeral, when the gentleman got to her house he collapsed and died. The family had to leave him dead on the floor while they went to the sisters funeral. We have no room but I am trying to sort something out. Even my new pen that I was not going to use until after my holiday has been used twice and has two in now.

Ela, such a very sad story but the way you have written it sounds as if you are trying to find space for the body; I know its not funny but you word things so wonderfully. :)

That is so sad and, I am sure, traumatising for everyone concerned. The gentleman must have been very close to his sister.

What a sad, sad story and how upsetting for all the family, traumatising for them I should think, not only grieving for one person at a funeral but two and then they are going to have to go through another funeral as well.  I can't even begin to imagine how they are feeling. :(

Well done Ela, for trying to help them at such an horrific time. :hug:

OMG how awful for everyone.  Fingers crossed these two kitties will take comfort in each as they have both lost their slaves ... poor babies.

this sounds SO terrible for the families involved... it is bad enough having to deal with the loss of 1 family member, but 2 and in such circumstances!   My heart really goes out to the family and I can totally understand why you stepped in to help Ela. 

Well done you for doing so Ela.  How are the poor wee babies, they must be quite disorientated??

:hug:
