My heart is broken into a million pieces. Opus went to the bridge today. I held him in my arms- stroking his paws, kissing his head. It was very peaceful. Though I will forever miss him, I know that he is running wild with Roscoe, free of pain, free of worry, young again.
I love you, Opus. Ci vedremo di nuovo....

So we are new to the cat blogsphere, compared to you. I guess we started too late to catch your heyday, so we missed Roscoe and Opus' blog somehow.
This weekend I cuddle with TK and Squashies, and read your blog. The whole blog.
What a wonderful adventure it was! We cheered at the parties, and laughed at the boys' antics. The screenplays, the van trips. The Africa trip (quicksand bit had me in stitches,) the bull/chicken fights, the Pisa tower, (especially the ribbon repair job.)
You are so very talented. You gave your boys an other-worldly life. And it was easy to suspend disbelief.
We cried when Roscoe passed, for you and for Opus. And we cried for Opus too.
I just wanted you to know, that we loved the writing and amazing pictures, and through it fell in love with your boys.
I know, with every fiber of my being, that they are together, wreaking mischief on the other-side. And I am certain that you will all be together again some day.
THANK YOU, for an awesome weekend!
You are in our thoughts and prayers. We found out about Opus from Jan's Blog. Having lost our collie Deacon this May, we know how very much these comments help the grieving process. If Opus happens to come across a very cat friendly collie across the bridge it will be Deacon. He really enjoyed being around cats.

I am so sorry for your loss. I know Opus will be in your heart forever.

I am so sorry. Dear Asta told me your sad, sad news. I am so sad for you. I know how hard it is wen a purrbaby goes to the bridge. Our Miss Fluffy went nearly a year ago today. Maybe Opus will meet her! She is very playful. Gentle and inkwizitiv. Yes, she may hav walkt over to see hoo the new handsum puss on the blok is by now.
Big big Bear hugs for a healing heart and gentle purry dreams.

Never fear, Opus will be there waiting for you when it's time for you to join together and continue. I hate to hear of another precious one leaving our presence, but it IS the way, and we all know that it will happen to all of us in the end.
Our condolences to you and yours, and I do wish to say that I know it's hard, but you can handle it. Keep those precious memories close to your heart and you will be made stronger by it. Opus is watching, and I'm sure, looking over and protecting you. Believe. I know I do believe my little ones are guiding me.
Be safe, stay warm and dry, and hang on. Life is still good.
December 23rd ...
We popped over to say Happy Christmas dear friends to you and your beloved Bridge angels ~ and a joyful and healthy new year to you all. xx
Milo and Alfie beat us to it. We came by to leave hope for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. You and Ollie have each other, extended family, and happy memories of Opus and Roscoe to help you through. Hugs!
