I just googled ...Thank you for the post on Griffey. I just googled Griffey the cat and found it. My Griffey was a black cat that walked up my sidewalk 19 years and 6 months ago and stayed. This guy has 9 lives! For the last year I've made a conscious effort to embrace his every grumpy annoying demands, lol. I would consciously memorize moments, eye contact, the feel of his fur and withering body and his little paw on my arm asking for attention 1000 times a day when I was working on the pc. I loved him. I had to let him go last week and I miss the little bugger. <br /><br />He was with me longer than either of my kids or Ed. I really believe animals go to heaven. Just can't imagine they wouldnt, especially since God knows how much we love them and he loves us, so there. <br /><br />I'm pretty private and reserved so haven't shared my loss so thank you for this opportunity to share it with someone who knows and understands. My neighbor gave him the name Griffey cuz he was the new little black kid on the block, lol.Valerie https://www.blogger.com/profile/15061189137188724556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434913941698768322.post-45295370598911966762012-01-29T13:45:07.464-08:002012-01-29T13:45:07.464-08:00Dan,
Wow. That's quite a coincidence. For what...Dan,<br />Wow. That's quite a coincidence. For whatever reason, I was never made aware of your comment. I just pulled up my Griffey post to show it to a friend of mine.<br /><br />Anyways, I just tried to respond to you, but I wasn't able to. I clicked your name icon and, from there, I didn't see any e-mail or return message option.<br /><br />If you're able to get this message, please feel free to e-mail me if you'd like to talk more. I always enjoy telling people about Griffey.<br /><br />Take care,<br /><br />-Jeff<br />(jeffbarthel@yahoo.com)JRB Sports Scribehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18418425798395093103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434913941698768322.post-51072450124860615002011-07-26T23:33:20.287-07:002011-07-26T23:33:20.287-07:00Sorry, I lost My cat also named Griffey yesterday ...Sorry, I lost My cat also named Griffey yesterday she was 16 & was the best cat in the world, she just rapidly declined in the last three weeks & went blind too, sadly she wasn't the cat I knew for 16 years & I knew what had to be done yet it was still very hard & I write this with a heavy heart & tears in my eyes, I lost my best friend & roommate of 16 years.Dan1648https://www.blogger.com/profile/01507909658971413018noreply@blogger.com
