I am supposed to pick up Praline's ashes today. I know this afternoon is going to be tough, so all of your purrs and prayers are appreciated.

Memory Lane - Baby Praline
Mom Paula: No walk down memory lane would be complete without pictures of Baby Praline (or Pralinette as Khyra would say). I am so glad that I had a good camera 15 years ago and took pictures of Praline that have lasted that I could digitize. Unfortunately, I don't have any videos of her as a kitten, but these pictures tell a lot of stories. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

THat is a tough thing to do. I cried just as hard the day I picked up Wizards up! I think it was worse than picking up my in-laws ashes!
We are sending purrs to comfort you in this task.
Hugs & prayers! If you want to talk with Mommy, feel free to send her a message through Facebook.
Love,
the PDX pride and Mommy Karen T.
Thanks for sharing so many memories of Praline this week! You are definitely in my thoughts and purrs as you go to pick up her ashes. That is always a difficult time.
It is difficult, but once I got my "baby" back home, something just felt right again. I knew they were safely back with me.
Yes, there was a whole new round of tears to shed, yet there was this calm feeling inside that they were now safe at home with me.
We are still here for you, sending love and hugs. And we are all just a phone call away.
Love,
ML
Hang tough as my boys would say Paula. It will slowly get better. Takes time, and you are doing good with the memories. Being able to talk about the lost one publicly is a good start. Take it one day at a time and treasure the memories.
Any time you want to talk you know where we are.
Lisa, Roy, and the Mouskateers.
Beautiful pictures of a beautiful baby. #1 still looks at pictures of the OWCB, Ikkyu, who was also with her for 15 years.
It is sad when they return, but happy too because they are home and you know they will always be there with you.
Purrs,
The Chans

She was a diva-in-training at that point. :) We know today will be tough for you. You will be in our thoughts.
Such wonderful baby photos! We love the one where Praline is bunny kicking the bunny! And of course the one where's she's hanging over the couch. All the photos are terrific and we're so glad you have them to remember her by.

We'll be thinking of you, this afternoon in particular.
What a fun walk down "new kitty lane". What a cutie. Love the photo of SP on top of the files.
Looking at all of your photos of Praline has been a joy. I hope you will continue to share more with us. You are in my prayers, Paula.
Hugs,

Sweet Praline was just a bundle of sweet, joy and beauty at all ages. Sending up lots of prayers for you today and leaving you warm hugs.
Sending you as much comfort as we can. We know picking up cremains is hard, but they will be a comfort to you in time to come.
((Hugs)) from Mom and ~ The Bunch
Such a beautiful kitten! Even as a wee-one she showed her diva-spunk!
Our thoughts and purrs of comfort go with you today, Mom Paula.
Miss Praline was a very lucky kitty to have such a loving mom.
We will be thinking of you Mom Paula. We so love that little photo of Praline with the shoe lace--that is one of our favorites! Purrs
Hugs and purrs, we're thinking of you. Oh I loved the memory lane pictures.
She really was such a very cute kitten. We will be thinking of you later.
we totally LOVED the collage of darlin' Praline. We miss her bunches and are so happy that you are keeping up for blog.
we all send our love to you (((((((((((PAULA)))))))))
We're skeptical that there's a kitten under all that floof! What a doll...we're thrilled you have such good photos.
We'll be thinking of you this afternoon.
Oh, Praline's mom...we are soo behind in visiting but could not let another day pass without giving you a long distance hug. There is nothing sweeter than baby photos, and if you are like our Teri, you will find comfort in just touching the little box or the urn that Sweet Praline's ashes are in...somehow you can still communicate with her that way...
Precious baby Praline.
We will hold you up knowing you will be there to bring her home.
