In loving memory...Ross

[Toa and Ross]

Ross is no longer with us.
Together with his brother Toa, Ross was my first sphynx love. He showed me how deep the love for a naked cat goes.
He was always full of energy, yelling at the door to play in the garden. He loved to crawl in my vest and snuggle there.
When human #2 came into our lives 4 years ago he wrapped the human (not a cat lover) around his paw in seconds. From that day he was a daddy's boy with the beard of daddy as his favorite thing.

Today he left us after being not well for 1.5 week. I had an appointment at the vet to let him go this noon. But this morning he decided to go on his own time.
I think he knew that, when he would fly away from home, he could be burried in his favorite garden.

So now he has his forever place in the garden. I wrapped him in my favorite vest, the vest he snuggled in the most. His place is under the bird feeder tree, next to the hedge hog house and the butterfly nectar.

If Ross could have talked, his favorite line would have been "a day without playing in the garden, is a day not lived". So in a way he now lives forever.

Thank you for all your love my lovely boy. I'll miss all your headbutts!

Natasja, Aref

I have been so sad hearing the news. The candle I lit this morning will shine bright in honor of your special boy today. He will forever be in your heart and so many of ours. Rest easy Ross and fly high over that beautiful garden.

So sorry to hear about Ross . I posted missing signs everywhere for my dog long time ago. She was the love of my life. After many false calls and hopes shattered one day I got a call that there was a dead dog at the side of the freeway. I drove there with my boyfriend and I see a white lump on the side of the freeway coming home and I burst into tears. I couldn't bear it and stayed in the car crying. He wrapped her and we drove to the nearest shelter to get her cremated. When I finally saw her body I was crying looking over her dead body. I saw her body move and breathe and I told the guy at the shelter she's not dead, and he looked at me sadly and said she was. I then took another look and saw where the car hit her. I realized she was taking her last breath waiting for me to say goodbye. I believe there is another life out there for pets and I hope you find peace knowing Ross is in a happy place looking over you with love.

 

[Toa and Ross]

@babymeow thank you. What a horrible way to lose your dog. So heartbreaking. I hope they are both in a happy place now!

I am heartbroken for you, Ross was a special boy. Sending comforting hugs and prayers .Fly high little man, play forever in the stars

 

[wesleydeman]

I am so sorry for your loss, but what a beautiful way to lay him to rest actually made me tear up.

 

[Toa and Ross]

Thank you @nudebea and @wesleydeman yes I'm so happy I could give him a place in the garden. He feels so close by this way

 

[kauna]

My heart breaks for you Natasja. He was a very special boy and will be greatly missed. I’m glad that he is forever playing in the garden. I hope that it brings you comfort in that he is at peace.

 

[Toa and Ross]

Thank you @kauna it truly helps to be able to say hello to Ross every morning and to say sleep well when I close the curtains and overlook the garden. It makes me cry, but still it helps

 

[nudebea]

Glad you are finding some comfort , thinking of you x

 

[Silke]

Oh man, how did I miss this.
I am so, so sorry. Words fail me.
You found a lovely spot for him.
Giant hugs from me and all the critters.

Thank you so much. Still miss Ross everyday and it was hard to see Toa so depressed. So very happy to with Felfely entering our home (and hearts) Toa is less sad and more active again!

 

[Bailey21]

I have to catch up, I noticed a new little face cuddling you on your selfie saturday post too!

We are all doing well, thank you for asking! Life is always super busy these days with an almost 3 year old now. Finn just had two major bowel surgeries (obstruction) back to back, but thankfully he's on the mend now and he gets his staples out tomorrow!

Wow is your little one already almost 3?! Time sure does fly. Your video about you surprising your boyfriend with Yoda feels like yesterday.
Sorry to hear Finn had two surgeries. Glad to hear he's on the mend now!
