Saying goodbye is always heartbreaking, especially when the one to whom you are saying goodbye is so utterly trusting. But I think the Grey Lady was worn out and had a sense that it was time. She did not put up any fight and went peacefully.
I am sure this little kitty is more handsome than this photograph... the day that Agatha left us, a friend in El Salvador adopted her first kitteh and asked if she could name him in honour of Agatha. Knowing that agata in Spanish is 'agate' or 'marble,' I said certainly. This little six month-old Siamese's name is AGATHO. When I get a better photo, I will post it.
It has only been six days.
My heart still aches.

Oh my friend, my heart aches with yours. I have been thinking of you with such great love and praying for consolation for you.
What a beautiful kitty. I am so glad that I got to meet her - twice!

Enjoy your Golden Tail, Pretty Kitty...
Sweet Agatha, sweet Lee...goodness often comes in pairs (and purrs in the company of one anothers). Onward we all go, with much love given and received.
Love to you,
Leonardo
Mad Priest wrote this and I accidently deleted the email in which it appeared, so here are his very kind words to match all yours, too.
Hearts are aching in sympathy all over the world, including here in England. Your face in the "last" photo says it all. Such love.
Saying goodbye to any close companion (no matter how many legs he or she has) is beyond sadness.
You have my deepest sympathies.
How sad to read of Agatha's passing. These special creatures take hold of our hearts in a way that no other can. Agatha was indeed a very special kitty.
I, too, am happy that I was able to meet her and photograph her.
Peace and love to you at this very difficult time.
sad, and yet something wonderful about your love and hers.
I am so sorry to hear of Agatha's passing. I remember her coming... and saying goodbye to a good friend, whether two- or four-footed, is always difficult. Prayers for your peace.
