I just received a cat sympathy card from my dear friend and her husband [View all]

I am so touched at their kindness. More tears.

It helps to know that others care. At the vet's office on Monday, everybody who came into that exam room, to a person, was kind, sympathetic, compassionate and caring. They let me talk even when I babbled on; they let me cry even when I blubbered; they didn't rush me, so they could use the room. They really seemed to care about both Holly and me.

I never expected this happening to Holly, let alone so quickly. She was my healthy cat. And now she's gone.
