Re: [Felvtalk] Husband has passed away..... :(
Dear Terrie, I will light a candle for your husband tonight. May your memories & the love you shared help sustain you through your loss. Kat (Mew Jersey) A Bridge Called Love It takes us back to brighter years, to happier sunlit days and to precious moments that will be with us always. And these fond recollections are treasured in the heart to bring us always close to those from whom we had to part. There is a bridge of memories from earth to Heaven above... It keeps our dear ones near us It's the bridge that we call love. ~ Author Unknown ~ God's Garden God looked around His garden and found an empty place He then looked down upon the earth and saw your tired face He put His arms around you, and lifted you to rest God's Garden must be beautiful, He always takes the best He knew you were suffering, He knew you were in pain He knew that you would never get well on earth again He saw the road was getting rough, And the hills were hard to climb, So He closed your weary eyelids, and whispered "Peace be thine" It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn't go alone, For part of us went with you, the day God called you Home. ~ Author Unknown ~ I Only Wanted You They say memories are golden well maybe that is true. I never wanted memories, I only wanted you. A million times I needed you, a million times I cried. If love alone could have saved you you never would have died. In life I loved you dearly, In death I love you still. In my heart you hold a place no one could ever fill. If tears could build a stairway and heartache make a lane, I'd walk the path to heaven and bring you back again. Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same. But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again. ~ Author unknown ~ -Original Message- From: ter...@tazzys.org To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Sat, Apr 2, 2011 11:27 am Subject: [Felvtalk] Husband has passed away. :( Thank you all for your kind words and love in this difficult time for me. It is hard on me since we have been together for many years. He had a genuine love for animals and supported me in everything I did in rescue. My husband passed away 4:30 in the morning on Thursday. He died peacefully in his sleep. I know he is longer in pain and sick is healthy again. He will be greeted by others that have went to the Rainbow Bridge especially by my Taz as he loved him too.

Dear Terrie, I am keeping you & your husband in my thoughts & prayers. Young or old, it is never easy saying 'Good-bye" to someone you love.

Re: [Felvtalk] Rescue work
Kelly does rescue work and had a shelter-environment set up with a number of kitties. A few years ago someone thought she was not taking good enough care of them, accused her of being a hoarder, & got the authorities involved. Best Friends - although they knew of her & her rescue work - did not come to her defense. It did not turn out well for her.

Re: [Felvtalk] Rescue work
If you are a non-profit org, you might want to consider having a succession plan in place to make the transition to someone else smoother.

Re: [Felvtalk] fyi: pet food buyout
But it's not just *any* buyout - It's P&G, the biggest Co. to continue unnecessary animal testing. And look at how the quality of IAMS/Eukanuba nosedived since P&G bought them in 1999...

Just because Natura is bought-out doesn't necessarily mean the products will change. This may be more about finances and stocks than actual product. Or it could be about P&G gaining a foothold into the higher quality petfood market, again finances. Even in companies where no buy-out occurs, a once great product can change. So, as always, it's wise to check the contents periodically to be sure quality is maintained.
