Our Friend Willa

On the same day that we learned the shocking news about Precious, another wonderful kitty named Willa passed away.

Although Willa lived in another state and we never met her, we feel the most special bond between Willa and our Precious. Willa being much older is perhaps looking after our Precious. When Precious passes away, we somehow hope that Willa will be there for her.

Willa was one year old in the picture below and much loved by Carolyn and Jocelyn.



It is very difficult to lose a member of one's family. We extend our heartfelt sympathies to Carolyn and Jocelyn and know that we are not alone.

If we had a similar pose in a picture of Precious, the tails of Willa and Precious would appear identical. Willa also struggled with an illness successfully for many years. I hope that Precious has the same strength as Willa. If not, my heart is comforted knowing that Precious will never be alone, as she was as a newborn, on that hot summer day in August, 2001, when we found her exposed in our garden.

I know that both Willa and Precious were great companions, much loved, and capable of the most special communication with their human families.
