      Sorry to hear that Mark. We did this for a pet bird a few years ago- my daughter still has the ashes.

      I'm very sorry Mark. A kindred loss is never easy. Blessings and condolences to you and your family.

      Sorry to hear about the loss of your cat. Having had and lost 8 cats over the 40 years, I'd like to say it gets easier but it doesn't. I'm sure there is a kitten at your SPCA just waiting for you to bring it home. Hang in there!
