An Ocean of Love❤️

December 26, 2011

The beginning of our journey
THANK YOU
THANK YOU
THANK YOU
for all for your kind sentiments!

We've received so many tributes, love, and tears, traveling to us from all over the world.

An ocean of love for Paddy O'Malley!

We miss his goofiness, his adorable squeak (I still hear it, about once a day), and the feeling of his sleeping body in my lap.

We'll never know where he came from, but Paddy found love, food, shelter, and discovered his talents as my hair-stylist and acupuncturist, when he choose to make his home in our yard.

The immense joy of having him inside the house, too quickly followed by his sudden and out-of-the-blue leaving, was a shock that still feels surreal.

If you don't mind, I'll continue PO'Mondays for some little while; there are many images of him to share.

  2. It was a shock to all of us. We were so happy when he came inside. I guess he needed you more than you knew. Big healing hugs. I know how much you loved him.

    Have a blessed Thankful Thursday. ♥

  11. We are so glad you had time to be with such an amazing fellow. Paddy O'Malley really was something special and we were really impacted by his passing. You could see it in his eyes and it carried across the web he had that much calm cat poise and grace. He decided to come to you and allowed you to be a part of his life which was such a gift to us all. We are honored that you posted our badge. Our Purrs and Prayers for you all!

  15. Oh my word, the things we miss when we're not here often enough. We only just now learned about your sweet PO'M, and we are so, so sorry he's now an Angel. My gosh, that seemed so sudden. And yes, please continue to share him with us all. Be well, take care, and it doesn't even need to be said that so many of us know exactly how you're feeling.

  16. I have just read your previous post. I am so, so sorry. It is always so devastating when a furry family member leaves us. Sending love and hugs your way.

  17. Vicky it is an excellent idea to continue P O'M Mondays. Such an honor to him to continue to make an appearance. Madi pops in and out too. Without her I would never have met so many wonderful furries and their staff.
    Hugs Cecilia

  21. We loved Pom and still do and miss him. But maybe he came in the house to tell you something and really needed your kindness to do what he had to do.

  23. looking forward to still seeing photos of Paddy--again just so sorry for your loss- so lucky you had each other!

  24. I was stunned to read about POM. So quickly after his move indoors. I only wish there was something I could say or do to lessen the pain. I know those we love don’t go away. They walk beside us everyday. Unseen, unheard, but always near. Still loved, still missed and very dear. I still see Queen Penelope out of the corner of my eye. I can't wait to see your photos of Paddy. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I send you virtual hugs, love, and strength. Barb

  27. Of course you must continue PO'Mondays! It was such an awful shock to everyone, especially as he had just become an indoor cat. He was and continues to be loved by so many.
    Thank you for the birthday wishes.
