HRFL Tiger
HRFL Tiger is gone. I'm going to post this because it's disrespectful
to HRFL Tiger not to do so. I have to say that apart from those kind few who left condolences, I was disgusted, saddened and sickened by what happened to my threads about Tiger and what I was accused of. Thank goodness for Facebook, where my genuine friends offered their support, and those of you ho ignored the crap and answered the original thread. Thank you. When Sir William died in October 2000 and I posted about his death, I had message after message of support on RPCA. When I posted about HRFL Tiger a few days ago, it was like nobody gave a sh*t. They were too busy speculating on what happened, flaming me and discussing differences in language. HRFL Tiger is worth far more than that. RPCA is not a place I want to be at the moment, so as a consequence I will no longer be posting after this. His Royal Feline Lordship Tiger is over at the Rainbow Bridge. It's categorical. He's not coming home. I have strong and fairly categorical evidence, not just circumstansial. I'm not going to go into details, because it's not actually anyone's business what happened and the truth is not nice. Huw (my DH to be) has spent the last week wiping away my tears and giving me hugs when the pain of Tigers loss becomes too unbearable. We have made the decision that after our honeymoon in August we will be going to the shelter and letting an adult cat chose us as his humans to honour Tiger. He would want that. HRFL Tiger was wonderful. He is wonderful. With me, he travelled the world and saw and did things that other cats could only dream of. As a tiny kitten he rode in the pocket of my dressing gown because he was so small at 50g I couldn't risk stepping on him. He turned into a handsome, 9lb cat with a deep, deep rumbling purr that he saved only for me. He was my heart cat. My heart is now shattered. At 9 months old, we decided he needed a friend to keep him company. Robbie the Ginger Ninga was that friend. That started a sequence of events that meant Tiger touched the lives of over 200 cats and kittens that were fostered by Tiger and I and found their forever homes from our house. He played with and trained kittens in the ways of ******* Cat Tricks and gave solace to the frightened and scared. He never made a cat feel unwelcome. He was amazing and unique and special. And I miss him. Every second of every minute of every hour of every day. Sometimes the pain stops just long enough to make me smile. And then I cry again. It's incredible how such a small cat can leave such a huge gaping hole in my life. Helen M |

HRFL Tiger
The discussion got disgusting so fast that I didn't want to react, I don't
understand how someone can have the heart to soil deeply felt mourning for an animal or a human in such a way, especially in the same thread. This being said, I want to wish you lots of strength, losing an animal by murder or an accident is absolutely the most traumatic way, and is very hard to overcome. Nanny "Tiger (a.k.a.

I'm so sorry you lost Tiger. His story--and your beautiful and heartfelt tribute--has touched me deeply, as I am sure it has many others. I look forward to hearing about the one who will not be Tiger's replacement. You can not replace a living being like a piece of jewelry or a Hot Wheels car. Rather, Tiger's legacy, his beneficiary, the successor in a long line of love. ***He looketh down from the very Heavens upon thee and behold, the love within his Heart doth thunder. And he doth see the core of thy Being, yea, even the very Thought of thy Mind, and sayeth, It Is Good.*** Blessed be, Baha |

{{{{{Helen}}}}}
I am so, *SO* sorry for having precipitated this disgusting behavior - believe me, it was strictly from ignorance and not malice or gruesome curiosity (I just wasn't sure what happened and thought, if I knew, I could offer some help for his recovery. I completely understand if you want to have nothing to do with me because of it, but there are, truly good and honorable people here who can help you through your grief, so please don't let those/me insensitive cretins keep you from that comfort. If you'd like me to discontinue replying to your posts, I will honor that request with no hard feelings and send my purrs and prayers in silence. Hugs, Lori "Tiger (a.k.a. HRFL)" wrote in message ...

I was hoping you would have different news about HRFL Tiger, but I am glad you shared those memories with us. This is a wonderful tribute to a wonderful (and much loved) cat. It will also be a special tribute when you go to the shelter and let another cat adopt you. The new kitty will not be a replacement because that is impossible, but it will enable still another cat to find a loving home and permit you to have another special boy or girl to love. I'm also sorry the other thread disintegrated into a flame-throwing discussion of language. We do frequently find that the original topic of a thread gets lost as we start responding to one another, but we should try not to let that happen when we are talking about a tragedy such as what happened to HRFL Tiger. Farewell, Tiger. You leave grieving hoomins behind, but you will find many of our feline friends waiting for you at the Rainbow Bridge. MaryL |
