Never say goodbye

If you ever had kittens born in your house you know how special an experience it is.  To see these little ones start out the size of hamsters blind and completely dependent on their mother.  Then a few weeks later they open their eyes and soon they are walking around and discovering life.  Their personalities start to come out and they are pure joy and innocence.   I was lucky enough to have 2 sets of kittens born in my house from my little feral rescue named Tippy.  The first 4 kittens are thriving and doing well and I cannot imagine life without them

I lost the second set of kittens to a parasite called coccidia.  Losing those two innocent little souls was the worst experience of my life.   I still have trouble accepting that it really happened.  When both kittens were sick I would let them sleep next to me at night so I could watch them.  Both their deaths were unexpected.   The song “Never say goodbye” reflects my refusal to let go!  My refusal to accept what happened to them.  The song is a tribute to them and they still live in my memory sleeping peacefully in my lap.  Their names are Tina and Ricky and I will miss them everyday until I see them again…Until then I will never say goodbye
