Howdy from Stella



Howdy Mates.  We are overwhelmed and want to thank each and every one of our furriends who left messages of sympathy and support for our family.  It has been a horrible week.  Our home seems so empty without our Rory.  He used to follow mum around everywhere and she was always having to squeeze past him or tell him to back up (which he could do, but in a very very slow way).  

Mum and the family have cried many tears and sometimes it helps a little but sometimes it doesn't.  It just sucks.  

I have been fine.  Mum was worried about me but I was worried about her so I have been really good and giving her lots of cuddles and love.  Dad moved Rory's bed out of the lounge room for two days, then we moved it back.  That big space was just too sad to look at.  As you can see, I have taken over Rory's bed.  I think he would be ok with that.  Mum bought me a new cover for it so it would be clean but she misses the smell of Rory.  




Me and Penny have been hanging out together.  We even played chasey yesterday and Dad thought we had both gone nuts.  We probably have.  

So mates, we are hanging in there.  Thanks again for supporting us.  Blogville is the most caring place in the world.

No worries, and love, Stella xxxx

    G'day darlin'... thank you for taking time to let us know how things are rolling your way. Yes, Blogville cares and loves in a most distinct way and we, your furiends, are aching with you - but in no way can it be as painful as it must be for you who knew and loved Rory the best. I am glad you get to be on his bed - of course he doesn't mind! Penny will be missing him too, in the way only cats can and it is a small joy to think of the pair of you seeking to 'fill the space'... continuing to send that capital 'ell' Love your way, hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx

  2. Lovely to hear from you Stella and you're doing a good job looking after your Mum and Dad. I think Rory would be happy for you to claim his bed, I understand Mum's feeling of not wanting to see an empty space. You and Penny must try hard to make Mum smile until such time as her pain eases. Take care x

  4. We know that Rory would be smiling that you are using his bed. We kept Bridge's bed out for over 2 years. Whatever helps and feels right is the best thing to do.
    It must seem so empty without him, literally and figuratively.
    Big hugs

  14. It is so hard to lose your best friend, Stella. I'm glad you got to keep his bed to remind you of dear Rory. I'm keeping you all in my heart, just as Winnie the Pooh tells us.

  22. To start, thank-you for stopping by my blog and letting me know about Rory. I've been not able to keep up with the blogs, and was grateful to hear from you. To tell you that I'm sorry about your precious Rory doesn't seem like enough to say. He was truly a rare gem whose courage and spark touched all of us as we laughed and smiled at the good times, and cheered him on through the not so good. I feel like I've lost one of my own dogs because I felt like I knew Rory. He will be missed by so many like me, who will not forget him. I hope you find comfort from those of you who are sharing his loss with you, and peace in your memories that can never be taken away and in knowing you will see him again one day. Thank-you for sharing Rory with us and giving us the chance to love him (and everyone at your house) from our corners of the world.
