Goodbye Butters

Our beloved yellow tabby, Butters, died yesterday, we are heartbroken. I had a few dreams about him last night and he appeared very happy & healthy. I like to think his spirit came to visit and let me know he's ok. I miss him so much.

I know they come to see you.  When I got Zelda last year, I was laying in bed and I saw Ashes, a cat I had that died years ago. I think she came to meet Zelda.

I am so sorry to hear of Butter's passing.  I know the heartache and i also know now the comfort of memories.  I lost my beloved Snickers a couple years ago and there isnt a day that goes by where i dont think of him and smile, sometimes i still cry but it is all good.  I just sent a note to Jade and told her of my sightings.  I swear i have seen him peeking at me around the fridge like he used to do.  I can sometimes hear him running across the kitchen floor when i am in the basement.  Not long ago i swear he was on the computer desk.  When we least expect it they present themselves.  Hugs to you Bob~

Oh, bless you Bob as you recover from this loss. Hope you can take peace in the fact that you cared so well for him. It is not easy to lose a best friend. I also had a dream, about my cat Sophie, who passed after 18 great years. It was a lovely image of her in her peak years, which I recall each time I think of her. An interesting thing happened after grieving for her for about three weeks. I was relaxing not far from her  "memorial" when I suddenly sensed something moving there...Then I felt something touch my heart with both sadness and joy. At the same time, I heard a quiet little child-like voice (inaudible) say "Good-bye..."  I was so surprised, and wondered if it was my guardian angel speaking on behalf of my cat, or if my cat could now talk in this other dimension(!). I do not know. It did help me move forward, and for that I am grateful. Will say a prayer for you and your "Butters" as you adjust to living in different dimensions. :) May he continue to live on in your heart through the love you gave to each other.

Thank you for your kind words, your faith must be a great comfort when these things happen-my dreams were very comforting. I've always thought I had a guardian angel, maybe it's my Fylgia. Butters was a great cat and I held him in my arms as he took his final gentle breath, I feel I did all I could for him; he's much loved.

Fare Well Butters, may the happy memories of you bring some lessening of sadness for your people.

Bob, they do visit us, I believe and let us know they still watch over us.

In my faith we believe in the existence of family guardian spirits called the Fylgia.  In the sightings I've had, all the kitties Anita and I have cared for over the years have joined our Fylgia.  I catch glimpses out of the corner of my eye of cats who we are no longer feeding.

I do believe is his spirit telling you he's fine, as you said.
Glad he could do it soo soon,must be because cats are pure souls ...
