Mama had some sad news from our grandma and grandpa. Our Auntie Sunshine went to the Rainbow Bridge. She was only six years old. The V-E-T said she had diabetes real bad and that her body was turning off. He said there wasn't anything to be done for her. Mama hopes that was the right decision. The V-E-T said it is hard to regulate feline diabetes, especially a case like Sunshine's that was so bad.

Sunshine is my Auntie cuz she was my grandma and grandpa's baby girl, but she was really my cousin. Our fur-mama's were sisters who lived under grandma and grandpa's house when we were born. Sunshine was a year older than me.

Sunshine had a very rough beginning to her life. She was very sick. Grandma always said, "no more cats! No more cats!" Until she saw poor sick little Sunshine struggling for life in the back yard. Grandma starting feeding her and taking care of her but soon Sunshines winning ways had her living indoors. Grandma though Sunshine was just a baby but found out she was nearly a year old already! She was just to tiny from being sick and neglected.

I miss my Auntie Sunshine but I know she isn't suffering anymore. Mama is really sad. It makes her think of losing us.

Oh what a sad story. But how wonderful that Sunshine had a good family to love her, even if only for a short time.

We're sorry. Poor little girl. :-( But think of the good life she did have with your grandma and grandpa even though it was so short.

we are soo sorry about Sunshine. But at least she was very well loved while she was here. Now she's happy at Rainbow Bridge and will see your Gramma and Grampa again some day.

We agree with everyone - Sunshine had a wonderful life with people who loved her. So many kitties don't have that (says Mom, though we can hardly believe that - how could people not love kitties?). We are sorry your Mom is sad. Remember those extra purrs she needs now.

Sorry to hear about Sunshine. At least she is happy and at the Bridge now. Make sure you give your grandma and grandpa lots of furry loving.

I'm sorry about your Auntie Sunshine. But it's good that she is free from the pain and sickness of her physical body. I send you wet Husky kisses.

My mom gets very sad when she thinks about losing me too. That's why she spends lots of time with me, makes sure I have a very healthy diet and lots of excersize so that I will have a long, healthy, happy life. I tell her not to think about it, it just makes her sad during our time together.
