| Hello Friends, Mr Buttons here. Dad was going to do my last post but I felt a little better and wanted to do it myself. I was so glad I got to enjoy my 7th GotCha Day and it seems like only yesterday Dad said I could officially join the family. Me and Miss Fitz had been in foster care for a long time and I had actually been adopted and returned due to my FIV. I was introduced furst as I was more outgoing and I fit right in with Tim, Toby, Buddy and Rumpy. We bumped noses and I was in like Flint. Miss Fitz came up the next week and, MOL, she is still a bit standoffish. Thats my gal. Dad has a nice Vet coming to the house today to help me on my trip to the Rainbow Bridge. He is really sad. Me too. There have been a lot of goodbyes and tears here. I wish I could stay but I am needed at the Bridge to help spread Kitty Angel Dust. |
 |
I told Dad that I HATED my fluids and medications. He listened and only gave me one last drop of fluids on Monday. I admit I did feel better and spent that Tuesday on Dads lap at work.
Me and Buddy had a nice chat. He stays with Dad all day.
|
 |
| Check me out. What a handsome fellow. |
 |
| Being the Black Cat Crew me and Toby have always had a good bond. On Wednesday night he said he has a special something for me. Hmmm. |
 |
| Then Timmy came up and said hello as he always does. He is a great cat. |
 |
| Miss Fitz was next to come by, say hello, and sit in her spot |
 |
| Then something Amazing happened. Buddy came up, said hello and laid next to me. Then Einstein, then Rumpy. Wow we were All on the bed, Together! My Family together for me. So nice. Dad was just amazed. We never do that. But they did for me, Mr. B! |
 |
| Yesterday me and Toby spent the afternoon just cat chatting and relaxing. He has been such a friend. |
So friends don't think of this as goodbye but,
until we meet again.
Love You!
Mr Buttons
Dad and Family

We will see you again one day dear Mr. Buttons. Hugs to your Dad and the others from me and my Mom too.

Thank you so much, Mr Buttons, for coming and saying goodbye to us. It is so sad that you must leave us, but time is telling you it is right. Your dad is one special guy, and he has one very special friend and companion in you, Mr Buttons, he must be so very proud of you and all your brothers and sisters, your family for being with you and supporting you. God speed my friend, and we will meet one day, who knows when, but I shall look you out and enjoy your company once more, and not from afar.

Mr. Buttons, we haven't been to the Bridge yet so we really don't know what to tell you. All we know is for a lot of kitties who feel poorly and their time here is up, it's the darndest, happiest place anybody could go to. Godspeed, my furriend to that special place knowing you were loved every minute you were here. - Tom xxx
We know it is hard to say goodbye. Godspeed to you, Mr Buttons, and hugs to your family.
Mr. Buttons, there will be a lot of friends waiting for you at The Bridge. Say hello to everyone from all of us down here on earth. We know it is hard to go and we are very sorry that it is your time. It is so hard to take meds and fluids. Many purrs, hugs and you will feel so much better when you have crossed over. You will be running free and feeling so healthy with those who have crossed before.
Dear Mr Buttons,
I am o sad that you have to go...as I know your family is too. I am sure you will be met by all the "Before Pets" and they will have a big party where you will be able to dance and run and jump like you did during your prime. I know this because Angel Nellie told me and she also told me that everyone is ready. You will be welcomed!
Purrs and Love (and some tears and strength for your Dad)

I am so sorry for your loss. May it merely be temporary and not be too awfully long before you-all can spend all of eternity together with our Heavenly Father in His Kingdom of Heaven. Now, I cannot say, “Thus saith the Lord,” about this like I can other things, but I cannot imagine Heaven being nearly as joyful without our beloved pets being there with us.
Oh shoot...still not right. It should be:

I'm so very sorry I missed this. I haven't had the time to read the blogs as I used to, and this is what happens. I am shocked that you had to go, Mr Buttons. It's terrible, terrible. But I am happy that you had seven years with the best family you could have found. Your dad is a marvel, and my thoughts are with him. It was astonishing that your family came to lie down with you. They must've known. What a wonderful compliment. You will surely be missed, Mr B. Godspeed to you.
We hads to stop being furry sads before coming by... Mr. Buttons, you had the bestest family and so furry glad that you didn't have to go to vets that you gotted to stay with your family as you leapt over the bridge. Fly Free now, sweetheart. We will see you again. Psalm 36:6 - Oh Lord You save both people and animals, how great is your loving kindness.
Mr. Buttons, I am weepy over you crossing the Bridge, but at least you had a Dad who understood about earthly pains and how life on the other side brings us freedom to be young kittens again. Still, my mom is weepy. She loves you black kitties so much. We are sending your family tight hugs and heart felt condolences. Purrrs! Herman and Dori and Mom Kim
I'm so sorry for you and your family, Mr. Buttons. It's always very hard to see a furry family member leaving. I hope you'll have a great time on the other side.
Sending hugs to your family,
Julia
We are so sorry you had to leave Mr Buttons but you will live on in their hearts. Hugs to your family.
Thanks so much for your support. We really miss our little buddy and having friends helps a lot.
Purrs
Timmy, Dad and Family
What sweet gestures your fursibs shared with you on your last day with them. And what a beautiful gift you have given your family, Mr. Buttons. And that gift was you. Rest assured that they will always luv you, will always remember & will always keep you in their hearts. (Mom & I are shedding tears as we paw this) XOXO -Valentine (& Mom) of Noir Kitty Mews
Thanks Robin. It means a lot

We are so very sad to hear of your passing Mr Buttons. We hope you meet our Angel Inka at the Bridge and become good friends. We are sending our gentlest purrs to your Dad Pete and to all the Tomcat family and are holding you all in our thoughts.
Oh Mr. Buttons your passing is so sad. I know your humans are so sorry to see you leave for the Rainbow bridge. I hope you are happy and pain free now. We recently lost our sweet Callie-Jo last October so if you get a chance look her up and say hi for us.
I'm sorry for y our loss and Having a pet euthanasia to our fur baby is hard to accept and even a sweet goodbye was still a challenge and very devastating to me. Again, I'm sorry for the loss of Mr. Buttons.
