Kazz, you're so right about that! My darling Teddie who I lost 3 years ago at the age of 20 (I'd had her since a kitten) regularly appears in my dreams and it is now strangely comforting. Mizzie (who I lost last November) appears in them too, and whilst I found it upsetting at first, I'm now finding comfort in that too (although there's a momentary minute of sadness when I wake and realise it was JUST a dream )

Janey, I couldn't contemplate getting another cat when I first lost Mizz, but then I still had Des and Bubs to love. However, I am now feeling I would like another kitten (or two) to complete my family.

I know how absolutely awful it feels to lose such a loving friend. Look after yourself, and do what feels right for you.

Hi,
Thanks everyone, i can only get another cat when i move out of my mums, she doesnt want another one. N i dont want to bring another cat into Tiggers home..! I wouldnt mind getting another cat at this moment in time but its a big no no.

Im going baby sittin my cousins 3 cats this friday to sunday, so ill see how that goes. She's had a tabby cat for about a year n half and her friend has just givin her 2 persian cats for free!, cos she is pregnant n cant look after them... So ill just see how i feel when i see n look after them.

Oh Jane I really feel for you and understand your feelings. As every one has said, Tigger will always be with you. Its funny how we become so intune with our animals and they with us.
The pain of loss can be great but you havent really lost as Tigger has taught you soo much and his teaching will be with you forever as will his beautifull memories.
Sending you a big hug xxx

Jane how about possibly offereing some help at the local CPL. Maybe a little kitten socialisation (I know Smudgley asks for that) or similar.

As people say the right cat will come along at the right time.

You will know when the time is right for you to get another kitten/cat, Jane ......I expect the memory of Tigger is still too raw at the moment

Janey, 2 weeks is not long, it must still feel so raw... I know how you feel I lost one of my babies 3 months ago and I promise it will feel better soon, just take one day at a time, the hardest part of having cats is that one day they have to go.
