I was so sad to see this entry, yet touched by your obvious love for Isabella. It is nice to know that others have experienced such love for their cats, and that Isabella had someone like you to care for her. You will see each other again someday.<BR/>::::hug::::Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8232050524450433684.post-57541275579561991732009-01-21T11:55:00.000-08:002009-01-21T11:55:00.000-08:00Your blog made me cry at the end...
