Oh sweet Laura, I'm so very sorry for your loss of precious Starla ~ these precious creatures become such important parts of our families, don't they? Sending you big ol' hugs and much, much love, Dawn
I am so very sorry. My heart breaks for your loss. My prayers are with you and your family. I can tell from that photograph how much she was loved. What a blessing you were to each other.
Oh, like so many of us, I know just how you feel! And I was just telling my little guy last night that he better be my buddy for at least 10 more years and not a day less! Nothing fills that emptiness you feel but time and the knowing that you gave that little angel such wonderful life!
I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved Starla. I am sure you have many happy memories of her that will help comfort you at this difficult time. It is always hard to say goodbye to a beloved member of the family.
Oh no Laura.. that is too sad.. Love this photo of her with her teddy/kitty.. My childhood kitty lived to 17 or so.. it's a long life for them.. she'll be chasing mices to pieces in kitty heaven.. xxx Julie
Laura, I am so sorry to learn about Starla. The picture you posted is so very sweet. My kitty is almost 13 and slowing down. Starla will be in your hearts forever. It is so very hard to say goodbye to our dear four legged family members. My thoughts are with you, Annette
What a precious little angel that came to visit for a while. My heart aches for you, because I know what it means to love a furry person so much and then lose them...xoxoxox Rest in the fact that you gave her the most-loved 12 years a kitty could ask for.
I'm so sorry for your loss of your sweet girl, Starla. We have them for such a short time but they leave such an empty spot in our hearts when they are gone and are missed SO much. Praying that you are comforted. I know just what you are feeling. They are such a joy and blessing to us.
Oh you broke my heart seeing her with her teddy bear. We started with five kitties, got down to one due to illness and old age (19 year old was the oldest)
Then one day an old tom cat showed up on our doorstep. He was so sick and so timid, it took us taking warm blankets and food outside for 6 months to coax him inside where I then whisked him to the vet. We almost lost him but he's still with us. I named him Moses because he looked like he'd crossed the desert back and forth again. He's a sweet baby who we adore. I hope you find an angel kitty to help you heal your heart. xoxo-cindy
O my dear !!...so sad news.....i will give you a big huge hug darling.......!!love from me...xxx...please come and join my day today.....with tears and a smile......xxx..
Oh dear Laura, so sorry to hear about Starla. I know she was a special part of your family and you must be so sad right now. You must frame this precious photo of her - she is just too adorable in it.
I am so sorry. It is so hard to lose a beloved pet. I don't even like to refer to them as pets because they are truly members of the family. Your Starla looked so much like my one and only cat Waffle. She's been gone for many years, but I still miss her and she lives in my heart.
aww, laura...i did want to know. i am sorry for your loss, and grateful for starla's presence in your life for so long. comfort and peace to you today...xok.
So sorry to hear the loss of your pet. Its very hard to lose a pet. My sister just had to put down their beloved beagle of 14 years. She was their "only child".
we just went thru that x 2. Aughhh it is the most horrible thing. I have tears in my eyes just looking at Starla's photo. I noticed that it looks like she has a Steif kitty toy between her paws..is that true? I know how you all are feeling.♥
I am so very sorry for your loss. I too lost a dearly loved pet recently and it was and still is very hard so I will keep you and your family in my prayers. She was a beautiful kitty. Hugs-Carrie
I'm very sorry for your loss! Having just lost our Border Collie a few months ago I can relate to the pain and emptiness that follows the loss of a beloved pet. Thinking of you and your family!
Hi Laura - I am sorry that you have lost your beloved Starla - I do truly understand your loss. We love our kitties here at our house and we have lost precious pets in the past that were truly part of our family too. Still, today, I could cry at the drop of a hat remembering those loved pets.
Starla was so lucky to have a family that loved her so~~
Blessings to darling Starla...Love the pic of her and her toy...how beautiful. Hope all healing comes you way soon and be grateful to have had such a wonderful friend in your life.
on a cheerier note. I am having a giveaway to promote my ETsy Shop...come on by. Cynthia
Laura, Ebbie and I are so sorry and sad that you lost your beloved Starla. She was so much a member of your family. You will always carry her in your hearts. We are thinking of you and send our love, Many hugs, Evi and Ebbie
My condolences on the loss of your Beloved Fur Baby Starla, she is adorable!
I too lost my Old Cat recently that we'd had almost 20 years and the loss is still so fresh that it seems odd not having her around the house... her essence is still here and evident. May you be comforted during this difficult time with the special memories you all shared of Starla.
Blessings from the Arizona Desert... Dawn... The Bohemian
Oh Laura, I feel so sad for your loss. My family lost our beloved Golden Karma last month to cancer and it is still SO difficult. I'm sure Karma was there to great your lil' Starla : ) HUGE hug to you and your family ~ Deanna
Oh Laura I know what you are going thru. It's hard to let them go. We just lost Bella our newest baby. I keep thinking she'll show back up. I wanted to write a post about her but I start crying everytime I think of it. Starla was very loved by you and your family and now blogland....we will all miss her.
I'm so sorry for your loss of your dear Starla. We have a Miss Bella in our home - her & Starla look alike. {{HUGS}} to you & your family during this time of loss.
I am so sorry to hear about your kitty. I lost my 14 1/2 year old dog about 6 weeks ago, so understand what you are going through. Pets are definitely a much loved family member.
Oh Laura I just read this post and I'm so sorry about your sweet kitty. They really do touch our hearts and become part of the family don't they. Maura
Hello Laura, Oh, I am so sorry for your family’s loss of your beloved Starla. She will be missed and seemed like such a sweet kitty. With My Love, Paula
So sorry to read about Starla. I am a cat lover and have had many cats over the years, I know how painful it feels when they pass away. They are part of the family. She must have had a wonderful life with you. Take care Isabelle x
We, too, lost a dear four-legged member of our family on July 22; so I know exactly what you're going through. I have a special posting for Dudley on my site at http://theredpaintedcottage.blogspot.com Our other dog, Molly, is all alone now and slowing making her own adjustments.

My heart grieves for you. We lost our 17 year old

Losing a pet is so hard - just when you think it seems better, you'll miss her presence on your couch or under your feet. So sorry.
