My Rolly

My Rolly

My beloved cat Rolly was with me for 16 years. When he was a kitten, I decided to keep him because he would put his face in the milk bowl and blow milk bubbles with his nose while his brother and sisters looked on.

He was more human than feline. I know everyone says this but in his case it was true! He loved spaghetti, mac and cheese, cotton candy (blue only) and butterscotch pudding.

He loved the movie the Wizard of Oz and would stay in the room the whole movie. He was very affectionate and was loved by everyone who met him. He used to take me on walks (no leash) and he would go visit the neighbor's dogs.

He had asthma and had an attack on the night me and my sister took him to the vet. He suffered a heart attack and yelled MOM. I had him cremated.

It killed me to go pick him up, in a grey bag. I miss him everyday. His birthday and holidays are the worst. I tell myself everyday I will see him again one day.

I agree with the lady that said, "if we ask Jesus to come into are hearts we will see our beloved pets."

 Molly
by: AnonymousTeresa Sopke

I am so sorry to hear about Rolly. Molly my long haired calico will be 15 years old soon. It seems like she just gets smaller and smaller. I am concerned I may lose her. She was an abused cat my sister-in- law and I rescued when she was about one year old. I did find out she had thyroid problem. Next week she goes back for more blood work. They are always in our hearts and memories. I have many cats over years of my life. I miss and makes my heart sad too. I always say they are in kitty heaven. There are even scriptures in Bible in Proverbs about taking good care of our animals. Thanks for sharing Rolly from Jackson. You do a great job. I will share your page.

I'm so sorry to hear about Rolly! I know how you feel! He was a wonderful cat! I think if we ask Jesus to be our savior and follow him, we will see our cats again!

 Bless You

I am so terribly sorry for your loss. I had to put my 7 yr old fluffy boy, Breeze, down in October. It is a heart wrenching experience. Nothing digs deeper in your heart than this pain. But don't you worry, Rolly will be patiently waiting for you when it comes your time to on to the beautiful life. Bless You.

My Lucy is like Rolly in that she too likes mac & cheese & pudding & french fries and she will talk back when spoken to. I worry about her getting older. So sorry you lost your sweet Rolly.

I am so sorry that you lost your baby... I lost mine in May.... I know the horrible pain you feel... the emptiness and the sense of loss is so hard to feel... He is now happy in Heaven and you will see him again. I told my baby "see you later"... it is not goodbye! My prayers are with you! ♥

 My Elmo
by: Nancy Durkee

I just lost my sweet cat Elmo on Nov. 25. Had him for 17 years. Will always miss his face. He was a true love. The only thing that helps is knowing I will see him again sometime. Hang in there!!!

What a wonderful boy he must have been. Glad you had him cremated; did that and got a tattoo with both mine. One was Feb 19, one Mar 6. They were 21 1/2 and 18. Remember the happy times often and the sharing you had. He will be with you; you will feel him often. Love sent.
