The Last Tommy Snuggle Pics


#1 here. Quite a few people have asked me how the kitties have reacted to Tommy's not being there anymore. My response to them is that I think they knew what was happening, and took great pains to say goodbye to him. This particularly applies to Tama-Chan and Da Beebs, as Genji never quite that kind of relationship with him.

As Tommy sat on his bed on the landing, gradually getting weaker, and waiting for us to go to the vet, never to return, both Tama and Da Beebs came over to share some mega-snuggles with him. It was their way of saying goodbye to their beloved woofie.

  1. Binga and Boodie both said their good-byes to Sparkle the day before she died. We kitties do know. Lots of purrs to you all.

  3. Animals understand so much more than we often give them credit for. I can see from the looks on Tama's and Da Beebs face that they do know what is happening. These photos are so loving but very sad.

  9. They know, somehow they communicate by smell, sounds or whatever. I sort of knew when mum took Derby away that day I wasn't going to see him again.

    Glad they had a few final days to be together.

  10. Thank you for taking and sharing those precious moments. We are aware of our fellow kitties (we have no woofie) and sensitive to our people too! We all need to pull together through these tough times, and like Tommy, be thankful for what we have.

  11. These are precious and loving pictures and I am grieved for myself, as I loved Tommy, and for the rest of the family and certainly for you. They knew they were saying goodbye and seeing that brings tears.

  12. Those are certainly some very sweet and bittersweet photos. We do believe that we can tell when one of our family is sick. We are still finding it hard to grasp that Tommy is really gone:(
