I got a kitten - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Janice · 11-23-2005, 12:53 PM

Yesterday, we went and bought a kitten. She's not the big lion type like Foxy -- she's an affectionate dainty little charmer. She's a lilac point Persian....beige with darker tips on the ears, nose, paws, tail...beautiful markings. We named her Lily.

I can see that she's going to be a wonderful pet. She's full of life, and so very loving. Maybe it was too soon to get another pet. I don't know. I just know that I couldn't take it without an animal in the house.

I'm dealing with mixed emotions. My grief for Foxy is overwhelming. It hasn't subsided, and I didn't expect that. I feel guilty about getting Lily, but I know Foxy would want us to be happy. I still can't believe he's gone. I have to bond with Lily, and I will. I'm confident that it will all work out.

I don't have a picture of Lily, but I found one of her breed on the web. It looks very much like Lily except that she doesn't have the very dark nose.

sounds like she' adorable. Dont' worry... sooner or later you'll be able to move past the pain of loosing Foxy and feel the love of having Lily. You'll never forget Foxy, but thinking about her won't be so hard one day.

You know what's a great name for a cat?

Tom!

Awww! I can't wait to see her, she sounds adorable ( and expensive..lol) I know she'll have a long and happy life with you. Congratulations Janice!

I'm sure Foxy would love her too.

Yeah, talk about inflation, lol. I paid $500 for Foxy almost 17 years ago. Lily cost $850. I told my husband it's our Christmas gift for each other.

Kitties are pretty!

I got one about a month ago and his name is Snowflake...because he's all white and so small

He loves me!!!!

WOW! And I was complaining about the price of Rob's Christmas present

Well, at least she'll pay you back with love.....but then again, love don't pay the bills

Janice, I didn't know how I would handle it when one of my pets died, but I knew Twinkie's time was close. It's cliche but time does heal all wounds(well, almost). I still miss her alot even a year later, but it does get better.

I'm glad to see you have a new kitty and I know you will come to love her as much as you loved Foxy.

awwwww!! It must be sooo cute!

I love cats & kittens!!!

ABlairican Pie · 11-23-2005, 04:07 PM

WOOO-HOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MORE KITTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cactus Jack · 11-23-2005, 04:13 PM

Awesome, she's cute

spunkygirl · 11-23-2005, 05:00 PM

Awww that's great that you got another cat Janice

For the longest time I would get this sick feeling in my stomach at the thought of getting another pet after our dog passed, I guess it's because I couldn't bear the thought of getting another pet and then losing that one too. Now I'm past that, and have my cat whom is very spoiled

*Pleasant Tomorrow* · 11-23-2005, 05:03 PM

That's great, though. Some people just need pets around and you still have Foxy in your thoughts and that's fine.

Actually there's this young kitty that's been coming to our house and not wanting to leave. We're pretty sure it has an owner...but last night it stayed out in the garage all night. (I didn't know until this morning being that it was there at night and still there when I got up in the morning) Usually it goes home. Right now it's curled up in a ball on our kitchen chair.

Awww thats great! My grief for Molly is overwhelming, too. At work Im fine, but now Im home in room and Im bawling. I just feel so lonely now. I have 4 other dogs and a cat that I love to pieces, but Molly was 'mine' and she was just a baby. The past day or 2 Ive been going back and forth about getting myself another small dog but I dont know. I want to fill that void that Im missing, but I want basically a carbon copy, and then part of me feels guilty for even thinking of the thought.
