Mama/JudiBug News

Dear Furrriends ... we are so sorry to have to post this but our Dearest Judi/MamaBug has passed on.  She left us around 5pm CST this evening. 

We don't have any funeral details yet and will update the blog when we have that information. 

The one thing we are certain of, and Auntie Deb and ML can attest to this, MamaBug was very clear that in lieu of flowers she wanted donations to go to the cat fund (to help with vet costs, feeding and litter costs.)

We appreciate all the support, love and prayers everyone has poured out and over our MamaBug during all of this!

We will be back in touch with more updates.

XOXOXO,
Sir Andy, Shell & Sierra
TraciBug, LaurynBug & KorinnaBug

Cat said...

No! We are oh so terribly sad to read this. Our hearts go out to you and our prayers as well. Indeed, there is a new star in the night sky and another angel to watch over us. But JudiBug was an angel on earth already and will be sorely missed. We are so sorry. We always have such sadness when we lose a fur friend, but we fur kids have much shorter lifespans...it is awful when we lose a human friend because we just expect them to be around FOREVER. May JudiBug rest in peace and without pain...watching over us all and smiling. We will think of her each time we see a ladybug (and we do see them often!), because to us she was Lady JudyBug!
