Mycah, 7/4/1995 – 11/7/2011
Posted By Russ Emerson on November 7, 2011 at 11:21 am
My special girl is gone. She passed quietly in her sleep.
Update: Many thanks for all the kind comments.
It hurts to lose her. But y’know, other than family, Mycah was the longest close “relationship” of any kind that I’ve ever had. So maybe the sense of loss isn’t so surprising.
I’m very sorry, Russ.
We do what we can, and we try to forgive ourselves for what we can’t do.
Their tenth lives are the memories we have of them during their nine, and, I hope, their remembering us.

Russ, so sorry to hear about Mycah. But she went peacefully on her own, so that is of some comfort. She has my three with her now over the Rainbow Bridge to keep her company until you see her again. Purrs, chuffs and headbutts to you in your time of sorrow.
I am so sorry to hear of Mycah’s passing. My thoughts are with you at this sad time.

sorry to hear this will keep you in our thoughts.
Oh no, Russ. Were you able to get her to the vet, or did she pass on her own at home? I’m so very sorry. Praying for you.
Our friend Laurence Simon told us of your great loss, this morning, and we have come to express our sympathy, and to share something that Nikita has written, that we hope will provide you with some words of comfort at this very difficult time.
Written, over a year ago, at a time of great loss in The Cat Blogosphere Community:
HOW KIND YOU ARE
Amazing Daddy, how kind you are,
That loves a Cat like me….
I once was lost but now am found,
Was alone, but now, have Thee.
T’was You that taught…
my heart such joy.
And You, my fears relieved.
How precious are from you my toys…
that I’ve received.
Through many dangers, toils and cares…
we have already come.
T’was You, and the Vet that brought me safe thus far…
and give me a healthy home.
The Ceiling Cat has promised good to me…
He brought me You to live secure.
You my shield and protector be…
as long as life endures.
Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
and mortal life shall end,
I shall possess within the veil,
a life of joy thanks to you my friend.
When we’ve gone thru all my 9 lives…
each day so much fun.
I will meow my praise…
as much as when we first begun.
Amazing Daddy, how kind you are,
That loves a Cat like me….
I once was lost but now am found,
Was alone, but now, have Thee
She went on her own. I thought she would on Saturday or yesterday, but her holding out until today gave me a glimmer of hope.
I stayed up all night and into the morning with her next to me on the desk. I talked to her, gave her water, petted her, even sang to her. She was very peaceful and relaxed.
I already miss her so much.
We are so sorry that your sweet girl has left you. Gentle purrs from the kitties. Sending you thoughts of comfort and wishing you many wonderful memories of her.
Run free at the Bridge, beautiful Mycah …
So sorry.
We are sending purrs.
Love,

My heart is aching for you right now. Im so,so sorry for your loss.
Somewhere over the Rainbow Bridge there are fields and streams where you can let your soul run free. Run Free Mycah….Run Free….
I will be thinking about you for days now. Sending lots of purrs and prayers your way. I know this is really hard for you.

Russ,
So very sorry to hear about Mycah.
May God comfort you.
My sympathies, Russ, to you and your other kittens.

I just heard, my heart goes out to you. I too know the pain of loss. Purrs and headbumps from my remaining two cats Meowza and Ritzi. I imagine Mycah is playing with the others that have gone over the bridge.
What Mom said.
Late saying it, but you have my sympathies. Just because they’re small and furry does not mean we love them and miss them less.

Oh, Russ, I’m so sorry to hear about Mycah’s passing.
I read your loving posts about her for years. I’m so sorry she’s gone.
I hope that you will one day take comfort in knowing that you gave her a good life full of love and care. You did the best for her that anyone could do, and I’m sure that wherever she is, she knows and appreciates it.
