My Poor Baby

I have sad news today. My poor little cat was knocked down by a car this afternoon and killed instantly. I am totally devastated. She's been with me for fourteen years ... she was my adored baby and I...well...I was her housekeeper. I can't begin to describe just how much this hurts and how real this grief is. What has really touched me though is the amount of neighbours who have knocked my door today to ask if I'm ok and to tell me how sorry they are about my cat. Most of the time it seems that people are too caught up in their own lives to worry much about anyone else, but when people display that level of kindness and caring it sort of restores your faith in human nature.
