found a sign on ebay tonight that summed it all up for me....
Its a placard that you hang on the outside of a show cats cage to remind people to keep their hands off! Its reads:
Please do not touch me!
Hugs and squeezes spread diseases!
I just had one of those Ah Ha! Moments.. I was at petco this weekend buying a few items and they had the adoption weekend and they had the usual line up of puppies and kittens, and the kittens were really sneezy and runny nosed... Upper Respiratory, they were adoption out kittens with upper respiratory... my heart just sank... it can develop into what killed my girls... and all I would have needed do was "hug and squeeze" those cute little sick babies with their buggery noses, and take it to a breeders home or my home, or your home... and I could wipe out someone else's baby... I broke out in tears right there in petco... I have been a total case since the girls died, so silly I know.. It just really makes you take a closer look at the little things.
But on the good news front...
I have a fabulous art major doing a memorial of the girls for me. I am not sure what medium yet, she is the artist, not me... But the girls will be memorialized and remembered. They will not be forgotten. Their short but very meaning full lives will be forever present in my home thanks to this wonderful friend.
The twins....
Yep, I decided to adopt the twins! They come home next week.. I didn't expect things to happen so fast, but then life has a way of happening without ya doesn't it??
I will post pics as soon as I take some, and names will be posted as soon as I figure some out! They do not have names and I and coming up blank! LOL So I'll have to get back to ya all on that! LOL
The twins are 6 months old and are cream and blue mink. (I have no clue what the heck that means) If you look at them they pretty much look pink... with some faint blue undertones... and they have BIG BLUE EYES!
