Ramius
We had to put Ramius to sleep this week. He was ready to let go, even if we weren't. I'm going to take some time away from the blog for a bit. I'll be back when I'm ready to talk again. Thanks for understanding.

This is such a tough thing to do - even after six years, I still mourn my beloved Cinnamon. Quiet time spent knitting and remembering him will help.
My family has been through this difficult time in the past. My thoughts are with you.

I had to do the same thing two years ago with one of my cats 15 yrs old and then 6 months later my cat that was 2 yrs old - my thoughts are with you and your family!
I am so sorry to hear about your loss.
I am so, so sorry. I know how difficult that decision is to make. Know it was an act of love for Ramius. He was beautiful and I know you all will miss him. Someday you will again be able to smile when you think of him. Believe me, but it does take time. Take care.
I am so sorry for your loss. We had to put down our dog several years ago and it still hurts. Thoughts and hugs your way.
So very sorry to hear about Ramius. I will alway remember him though, he's laying on one of the shawl patterns I bought from you years ago. Hugs to you all.

I'm so sorry. He was a handsome boy and I know you loved him so much.
My Rocky and Sasha wish him well. They will look for him when it's their turn. I know how you hurt.

So sorry to hear this sad news. We all love our fur babies so much. Hugs to you and your family.
I am so very sorry. I know how difficult it is to make the decision to let our furred family members go. Peace to you and your family.
I am so sorry, I know how much it hurts. Even when it is the right time for him. I wish I had the right words to help ease the pain, but I don't. You were both lucky to have each other, he was such a beautiful cat with his own personality. He was a part of your family and a part of your life and he is loved and missed.
Oh that's so sad. I'm so sorry. x
I am so sorry. I'll give my schnauzer, Morgen, an extra-big hug tonight in Ramius' honor.
Ramius was such a beautiful cat. I'm truly sorry.
Oh, how sad. My thoughts are with you. May your memories of this wonderful cat fill your heart and heal the pain.
One of the hardest things we do is let go of those trusting pals that give so much to us.
For very sorry for your loss. He was a beautiful feline.
Hugs and scritches to Finn too.
I'm very sorry to hear this. :(
I am so very sorry. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
I'm so very sorry to hear of Ramius' passing; he was a very important part of your family and a very regal representative for the blog. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers during this most difficult of times.
So very sorry - I've admired him and enjoyed his contributions to the blog, including his patient modeling of various creations. :-)
Hang on to the fun and happy memories - they'll never go away.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Our pets become family members, and their loss is very deeply mourned. I'm typing through my tears for you.

I am a lurker here, but had to comment. I had to put my Munchkins down Oct 19 and it hurts like all get out. He had been hit by a car. I had had him since birth and still have his Mama and one brother. I feel your pain.
