Goodbye, Sweet Olivia.

My sister Olivia passed this morning from complications of CRF. We are very, very, very sad.

She was my first new sister and posed with me on the Forbidden Table for the very first picture I posted.



I figure my old bro Eddie and old sis Sophie were waiting for her at the Bridge, along with all the kids we've met and who went before.



I hope too that there are Cheez-Its over there because I know how much she loved them.





We love you, Kangaroo Girl. And next to Mom, I will miss you the most.

  14. Oh i'm so sorry for you and your family's loss, William! Olivia was a sweet, good girl indeed! And if she loved cheez-its, she also had excellent, discriminating taste. :)I'm certain there must be treats like that for wonderful kitties over the Rainbow Bridge, and she will think of you when she snacks and when she's playing in the fields in Heaven. (And posing on a forbidden table..

  19. Oh sweet William and family, especially Mom--

    We are sending so much love to you during this sad time. We always thought Kangaroo Girl was so very beautiful even though she was a little shy about being on the blog ;-)!

    I think she had just about the best life any kitty could have had with you and Russell and Caroline and The Pee Queen and your WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL Mommy who takes such great care of all of you. We know there is a hole in all your hearts today, and will be for some time to come.

    I hope you are all cuddling up and comforting one another as you remember your sweet sister. Be extra nice to your Mom, ok? I think this will be hardest for her.

    XOXOXOXOXO Spitty and the Human

  64. Oh William!

    We are so sorry to hear about your sister. We don't comment much, but we've been reading your blog since forever, and always had a giggle about beautiful Olivia's kangaroo, and how she would talk to your Mom in the bathroom every morning.

    We know she has plenty of company and Cheez-Its over the bridge and that you'll see her again.

    Your family are in our thoughts,

    Hedley, Simon, and our girl Dana

    We are so very sorry about Olivia. Our own sister Mischief crossed the bridge just yesterday, also from CRF.
    She was 14 and like you, we are very, very sad. Our mom told us that being surrounded by love is not the worst way to leave this world and we're holding onto that. Much love.
