((((((Cherie)))))),
I'm sorry that you lost your friend. She's a beautiful, distinguished lady, isn't she
It's so hard to let our fur-babies go. Their lives are so much shorter than ours
I thank G-d though, Cherie, that you rescued her from an intolerable situation and gave her many more years of feeling loved and feeling cared about and feeling wanted.
I'll say a quiet prayer for Bessie tonight.
Barb
PS: Bessie was my Grandma's name
