  • Roeleke this is such a beautiful tribute...my eyes are filled with tears for you and Nettie and also remembering my own precious cat. What a wonderful life you gave Nettie! This video has really touched me...thank you dear Roeleke. (=^_^=)

  • I can tell you are a very giving and really sweet person upon looking at your beautiful tribute. Your music is inspiring and i hope you continue to share your gift.

    I have a 15 year old Calico that I named Nettie. I call her my little black child because when I pick her up and plop her on her back in my arms, she just purrs! 2 years ago we found out she is diabetic. How is it possible to love a cat this much? Love to you too, Chris

  • @ravenswoodranch

    Chris, thank you so much for these great words here. I love my cats, and when one of them is ill, I feel ill! How special your Calico is named Nettie also, that is so nice! I once had a tomcat Daan, who had diabetic also. I gave him 2 injections a day. You know, I had great support at a yahoo group, where they have a diabetes group for cats. A big hug for your Nettie, from me! :-) Roeleke

  • you reach out roeleke to the very depth of what you are thinking..and feeling...i love you nettie...you are always in my thoughts..cannot watch you today..for my heart would break so..but soon.

    love to you in heaven.

    ~misty

  • beyond anything....i am speechless.

    you know the inside of my heart and my life.

  • makes me think about my dog that passed away two years ago...

  • Sorry to hear about your dog! I always miss a cat who passed away, I think you will have that too so now and than.

    Roeleke

  • there are no words..roeleke..i have been crying the whole time..i have never ever met anyone who sees as i do. this is my soul. they take my breath away..i would die a thousands deaths for one cat.

    so many stories in my head, songs, visuals....so many images...i need to let them live...you have done this for me...i must do this.

    my lewi..when he left..it was death, i took him to the chapel and the ocean to say farwell...god she was an angel. they are angels on earth. for cats i live.

  • thanks you my friend. you are awesome:)

  • Wow, dear Teddy, thank you so much... I love my cats very much, and when there is one leaving, it saddens much, I miss them. But this is life! I still have some around, so glad I have. They are so nice! Even here at the computer I sometimes have no place to type, haha...

    Thank you so much! Have a great Sunday!

    Roeleke :-)

  • Such a very beautiful, touching tribute to your good friend! I've actually avoided watching this video for several weeks because I recently lost my very good Siamese friend, and I was too raw. Today, I was tending her grave and thought perhhaps it was time to "meet" Nettie. I was right. Thank you for helping me edge a little closer to healing, Roeleke!

  • I am sorry to hear about Nettie.

    I cried when I watched this because Nettie, and I am telling you the truth, had the exact same markings on her face and upper body as my cat Samson except Samson is grey and white !!!

    Exactly the same !

    I nearly went into shock when I saw that. It is an incredible coincidence. My heart is with you. God Loves You ~~~ Chuck

  • Dear Chuck,

    That is so special. You know, I understand also that Samson is a he, and my Nettie was a she.

    But I can understand that it is so strange to see like you saw it.

    Thank you, my friend!

    Roeleke

  • I don't know you but i did see this vid and it made my cry cause ai know what it is like to lose a pet cause they always seem to be there for you and give you that special love and those sweet kisses they give to wake you in the morning. my thoughts go out to you in your time of loss

  • Very sorry for your loss Roeleke. God Bless.

  • Gosh your country is beautiful.

    Lovely music too.

  • I send you healing love on the loss of your kitty, cats have always been a major part of my life, and I've lost many. No matter where they are, they still love us.

  • Truly song from the heart. How beautiful. I got chills from the spirit of your song. It is obvious that she brought you great love and joy for those 9 years. No doubt the heavens can hear your song, like an angel.

  • so sad for nettie, i love cats very much as well as my angel love cats very much, thans for sharing my dear friend...malen

  • so sad for nettie,  i love cats so much as well as my daughter...thanks for sharing...malen

  • Wow Roeleke, what a beautiful tribute to remember Nettie!!! A beautiful vid and wonderful music too! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings! 5 million glittering stars for Nettie and lots of Love - Sharine

  • Thank you so much, my dear Sharine,... this was just great to do. I feel okay with it, you know... have a little hard time still with my little one, who I had to let go last Tuesday... She was my little baby a little... :-)

    Thank you so much for you kind support. Great to know you!

    Roeleke

  • Bedankt voor je reactie op mijn video "Bärchen".

    Geweldig hoe jullie met 't verlies van Nettie omgaan, namelijk dat dit uiteindelijk de beste oplossing was voor haar.

    Ik denk aan jullie,

    Geert.

  • Wat een lieve reactie Geert, dank je wel hoor!

    Ja, je moet altijd naar het dier luisteren, denk ik... of het nog verder kan of wil... het is soms moeilijk, soms wil een dier ook voor jezelf blijven, en dan is het soms beter dat een ander vertelt dat het tijd is om te laten gaan.

    Roeleke

  • thanks for sharing this video with us,i really enjoy it 5*****

  • Thank you so much, Dewa!

    Roeleke

  • Dear Roeleke, my Penny and Bonnie are now Netties friends in what I call pets heaven. That is a beautiful drive; it looks so strange seeing you on the right hand side of the road as we drive on the left. I know all do not see eye to eye but together we all could make our own little heaven on earth? God Bless from me and Tammy send a loving wag of her tail.

  • They must be, yes!

    Haha, for me it is also so strange that you drive on the left side, but don't worry this time, I drive slowly and am careful! :-)

    Have a great day today! Roeleke & cats! :-)

  • You have good memories of Nettie and that is beautiful

    Fabulous video onze lieve Roeleke x

    Susana

  • Roeleke.beautiful and haunting tribute... I can tell you really loved Nettie,she was lucky to have that love... And you are very talented lady... Thank you for sending this. Love Christine.

  • Wow Roel!!This really touched me!!Bye sweet Nettie be happy at the rainbowbridge!!,Emily

  • This is beautiful dear. And your voice and arrangements always remind me of flowers blowing in the breeze on a hill in the Netherlands. RIP Nettie. My cat Boogaloo disappeared one Halloween despite our efforts to keep him inside. He never returned. They are together now I think.

  • Pfffffffffffffffffffffff...Je weet wel emotie over te brengen hoor ! Nou heb je mij ook in tranen ! ;-)

    Prachtig gemaakt Roeleke !

  • Dear Roeleke,

    I'm so touched. About the loss of Nettie, about the song and her last trip. I feel the pain and I know, what is going on in your mind. The tie of friendship with an animal is so close.

    I will pray for the lovely Nettie.

    I wish you, Roeleke, fortitude. You have given Netty the best, you could. You have a heart of gold for cats.

    Coby.

  • OH Auntie Queen

    I am so sorry for your loss

    I know how you feel

    Take care My beautiful Auntie Queen

    Auntie you watch my new video

    it will make you feel happy

    I am a naughty dog I tear up hello kitty

  • Hello little naughty dog, your Auntie in the Netherlands not only likes you, but also loves you!!

    Just like I love these two girlies who you take care of, hahaha.

    Have a great week!

    Roeleke

  • I'm glad she's not suffering anymore bless her....she had a good life, and was loved and loving in return...you cant ask for more than that :D Love how you made the dreamy video sis, and your singing is very very lovely :D Thank you xxxx <3

  • I am so sorry about Nettie. :( I have lost a pet before, and it is HARD! I love your video and the music is absolutely beautiful. I hope it is getting easier to deal with the loss. -Tiffany

  • so sorry Roeleke, I know you love your cats! Prayers for Nettie! Love Ya Vickie

  • aww, I'm sorry Roe, she was so sweet & cute, the vid lookt like a respectable ride in the one vehicle we all hate to see.. The last ride mine pup had was not a peaceful one, it was not peaceful for my ride home or many a days thereafter w/ out him, so I know the loss, such wonderful companion he was & animals a more special companion because they dont judge on appearance of body or materialism, but character, a trait so often not found in human hearts. May Nettie rest in peace : hugs :

  • i wanted to come by again, you know i really know how you feel, i love animals so much , it just hurts when you lose one i lost my dog dancer, and it broke my heart, i have a new dog now, but i am always missing my dancer, i love this video it touchs my heart deeply , i cry a lot when i see it , you are a dear

    jade

  • Dear Jade, it is so good to know that this video and song touched you my friend. Let tears go, they bring healing this way! I am sorry for you that Dancer is no longer with you,... but I am sure they always stay with us. Great you have a new dog!

    Big hug from your friend Roeleke! :-)

  • I,m so Sorry for your loss dearest Roeleke a Great Tribute to your Cat Nettie Roeleke many Hugs to you my friend your friend pam. Take Care Roeleke , pam.

  • Sorry for your loss Roeleke. Pets are so wonderful, it is always hard when we have to say goodbye.

    This is a very beautiful tribute that you have made - both the music and the video.

    FP

  • cat nip .When she does die it wont be so bad with her catnip next to her side! Me being there to unless she dies when I'm asleep. People needs to grow catnip so the earth nature can get well faster!!!!

  • On June 1992 the week of my birthday I received my cat Bambi she is still alive she is 17 years old now ! A few months ago I thought I was going to lose her she could not stand up! I grow catnip for all the animals! Catnip is for everything out there! I brought in cat nip put it all around her! They dont have to eat it ! it needs to be around for them to breath! That morning ! It was like she was never sick! It was wonderful! When she needs it again I will be there for her and bring her

  • Nice. Real nice Roe.

    Loves,

    Mooz

  • Very nice Roeleke 5*****

  • Ohh ja, das ist immer hart...

    ich bin nicht so gut , hierzu was zu sagen.

    Ich weiss es aus Erfahrung.

    Eine wirkliche Requiem Tour durch ihr Viertel mit sehr schönem Gesang von Dir.

    Viele Sterne am Himmel **************

    (für die Lütte)

  • Lieber Onkel, es war ganz schön um diese Musik zu machen, mit improvisieren fühle ich mich "im Element", wie ein Fisch ins Waser, meine ich. Ich höre es auch gerne. Das Du hier bist, ist ja schon so viel, mein Freund... dafür habe ich ja auch keine Worte!!! :-)

  • Roeleke- What a touching tribute to someone so important to you, taking her to her final resting place with such grace......My prayers go out to you as you heal from your loss.......

  • Thank you my dear Friend, I hope you do fine. Are you still very busy nowadays?

    Improvising like this is "my thing" dear Ben.

    Have a wonderful week! Roeleke

  • roeleke,im so sorry about netti. i always thought she was beautiful with her black and white.your video was great. and love the organ with your singing.may your thoughts and fellings calm for you.peace love mary

  • Dear Mary, thank you so much. She had a good life with us, and I am thankful for that. And thankful that we can go to the vet, if necessary, although I prefer also animals to go themselves when it is their time, but when they suffer towards the end, I don't feel doubts to let go, my friend. Than it is only for them being Free!

    Big hug for you! Roeleke

  • this just is such a feeling , i know how it feels, i think this video is perfect thank you so much for sharing with us, i know it is hard when you have to do this, i went through it too, this video is wonderful and meaningful,

    thank you

    for sharing

    i know it is not easy

    love

    jade

  • this is so wonderful i love it so much

    kisses

    jade

  • Thank you so much for your great comments, Jade. It gives me a good feeling that I did it this way, she will always be part of this video and this song, and for sure in my heart!

    Roeleke

  • Always tragic when a dear house-friend leaves us,I got 2 cats home and wouldn't want to miss them for nothing,they're such social animals. well Roeleke you're improvising the day away over here, a great way to say goodbye,greets Vic.

  • Yes, Victor, I have more cats, but they all are different and personalities too. I love them around, and our tante Nettie, I really will miss.

    About the music, Victor, this is what I really love to do, just improvise. That is how it started, improvise at the Korg and sing one voice.

    Roeleke

  • I love the cats!!!

    Thanks!

    Gaby.

  • Gaby, I do too, thank you so much for your nice comment!

    Have a great week!

    Roeleke

  • I am watching this video again because it's just so well made.

  • Thank you so much, my friend. You know, this way of making music is I think... the best way for me. Just improvise and sing. It was so special to make this.

    And the green in these surroundings is just wonderful. Although it is long (11 km) for a cat to be in the car, I can drive slowly there, about 60 km an hour.

    Roeleke

  • Hello again dear friend.

    It surely has been awhile sinc I last watched a vid and chatted with you.

    Truly;

    Lloyd.

  • Wow, just so great to see you back, my friend! Hope you are fine, and just missed us here! haha!!

    I sent you a friendshipinvitation already and subbed to your new channel!

    This makes my day!!! :-)

    Roeleke

  • Hai Roeleke, ik heb inmiddels wat video's toegevoegd van onze poes! Is ook veranderd van een hele schuwe poes, naar een heerlijke tante. Ik hoop dat ze nog lang bij ons mag zijn, ook wij weten niet precies hoe oud ze is.

    Tineke

  • Hoi Tineke, ik kom gauw even "buurten" hier op youtube. Mooi he, dat ze dan zo ten goede kunnen veranderen en gelukkig zijn.

    De Hortus moet nog even wachten,... komt vanzelf, he!

    Roeleke

  • 5***** from me,very good job,I was crying watching your video ,sharing your pain together with you ....:-(

    irmaroza

  • You have a rich and goodly heart, my dear friend, as this beautiful tribute video so amply shows. I'm sorry that you lost Nettie, but I know that she was loved and cared for, and respected. This musical composition and accompaniment to the video of Nettie's final homecoming journey was simply beautiful, Roeleke.

  • What a Beautiful Dedication to Nettie, I am very sorry for your

    loss!! But Nettie will not suffer anymore! It was the right thing

    to do and it is so hard to let go but nettie is in a better place

    Endless stars to the sky!

    Hollie

  • I´m sure Nettie led a wonderful life being in your hands, your tribute is remarkable Roeleke

    Rick

  • Rick, what do you mean with remarkable, haha?

    Yes she was happy here. When I drove back home from the vet, she was in a little box besides me. I have a great vet, she lives about 11 km from our place.

    This way of making music just fits to me, just improvise everything. :-)

    Thanks my friend! Roeleke

  • Sorry to hear about Nettie. They become such a huge part of our lives. It's sad to let them go - but knowing there is no more pain for them - we know its the best thing to do. I had two cats - Bogart and Marvin for 20 years, and David had Oreo for 16. We felt such a loss when they were gone. Now we have Neo - he's 9 and we love him. In fact I just gave him a bath ! He didn't like me for a couple of hours !

    Such a beautiful tribute to Nettie. Sending you a hug.

  • Dear Toni, thank you so much, yes, it is always sad to have to say goodbye to such a little familymember, I see them this way too. Nettie was a special cat for me, having patient with each other, she getting used to live with us here. But there is no pain anymore, so it is. Haha, I have to laugh about what you write about Neo, I think his love is back by now for you!

    Thanks you so much!

    Roeleke

  • What a beautiful neighborhood you live in. I am so very sorry about Nellie. pets are like family and its very difficult. The tribute you paid to her is very nice.

  • Thank you so much, Bill. Yes, that was also the reason I wanted to record the way back home, because it is all green and I don't drive this route that much.

    Yes, you are so right about animals being as a family. Thank you my friend!

    Roeleke

  • back to listen again...this is just so touching

    Sandra X

  • Wow, thank you so much, that is such a wonderful compliment, Sandra.

    Have a great Sunday! Roeleke

  • very sad!sorry for your cat.

    Dr.Chef

  • Hi my friend, thank you. I am always relieved when the suffering is gone, and there is peace!

    Have a great Sunday!

  • Hahaha, that's why I have many: I have a lot to learn!!!

    Thanks dear Michael!

    Have a wonderful weekend!

    Roeleke :-)

  • Gee Roeleke, I'm so sorry about Nettie, but I know she had a wonderful life with you and I'm sure you will miss her. I know how you feel as I too have had to let cats go in the past but when they get so ill and are suffering it is just the right thing to do for them. Your song for her was beautiful and the video was a wonderful tribute to her! Take care my friend... FrAnK (★★★★★)

  • Thank you so much, dear Frank. She was happy here, you know, and that is what counts.

    Have a wonderful Sunday! Roeleke

  • Nettie is in catty-heaven and you made such beautiful music to her last trip on the video,

    Heel bijzonder.Dank je wel Roeleke

  • Yes dear Herman.

    En weet je dat ik George zag bij de dierenarts? Ze is dus in goede handen!

    :-)

    Hou je taai, mien jong! Roeleke

  • I feature in my channel

  • Oh that is great, my friend!

    Roeleke

  • Tear rolling down my face

    You are a real animal lover

    Salute to you my dearest adorable QUEEN

    I enjoyed the video with emotion of love

    I really really touched

    This is very beautiful sweet everlasting love video

  • When you are open for animals, you know that also,... than you know that they give so much, they take us who and how we are... I just have to love them.

    Big hug for you! Roeleke

  • OHHHH Roeleke.......

    I am so very sorry for your loss of your kitty/baby Nettie.

    I do know what a very hard thing that is to do..you poor thing. YOU are in my heart.

    They do us such unconditional and beautiful love..so innocent and pure!!

    Love you Beautiful one.......

    Lovely tribute to Nettie....... xoxoxoxo

  • My dear wonderful Suze, so good to see you here, my friend.

    Thank you for your kind words. Yes, they really are, and they are so themselves, you know, all different. I love them, but feel relieved that Nettie has not pain or suffering anymore!

    Have a great week! Roeleke

  • i've been watching this last night but i have to find words to express what i thought!hmm a lot of us havin some losses i guessed!"SOMEONE" just say goodbye a while back!i'm deeply sad!hope you doin well my dearset friend Roeleke!

    sighs!

    muah and ilyvm!

    j :-(

    Big hug for my great friend! :-)

  • I am sure you touched everybody's heart with your outstanding video!. sorry for your loss my dear friend.

  • Hi dear Najib, thank you so much for your words. I felt very inspired in the improvisation, you know.

    Have a great week! Will come later and watch your video!

    Roeleke

  • sigh ! sorry !

  • Thanks Giuliano, for being here.

    Say hello to your cats!!!

    Wishing you a wonderful week!

    Roeleke

  • A great tribute Roeleke, it made me cry. R.I.P. Nettie. Those are beautiful trees along the way. Letting go of a pet is the worst thing imaginable, they are like family. Barb.

  • You are so right Barb, they belong to the family. I was very busy with her, trying to let her eat still. She was eating with one of my cats, called Rakker. He didn't eat properly either. After Nettie is gone, he starts to eat so very much, haha. Strange, isn't it? I feel very okay about that, haha!

    Have a great week!

    Roeleke

  • RIP Nettie. I am so sorry for your loss. I used to have a kitten bitten by a street dog. I had tried to euthanize her but no vain. There was no doctor in Burma willing to do it for us. She suffered for a few weeks before she died. It was so upsetting for me to watch her suffer, and her death was a release for me. Wow, you drove by the most beautiful place on earth. I love the green trees!!!! And your singing and music were terrific!!!!

  • Dear Gersing, that is really the worst, not being able to do something for such a little one. Let her go is much better to deal with than. Omg, that must be so hard for you, my friend.

    Yes, it is such a nice road to see you know, all woods and green. I love to show the surroundings here around my place.

    Yes, this way of singing and making music is actually "my style", I simply love to do it this way!

    Have a great weekend, my friend! Roeleke

  • Thanks Roeleke, have a great weekend too!!!

  • Roeleke what a beautiful video and your singing was unforgettable. It is sad when one loses a dear pet. She sure was pretty. Thank you my dear friend for sharing this with me..(5*)

    Big warm hugs, Sherry

  • Thank you so much, dear Sherry, for being here , and listening and watching. She was a very nice cat, and so happy here. I will always remember that!

    Big hug for you too, my dear friend!

    Roeleke

  • Our pets are like family to us. I'm glad you did the right thing to end Nettie's suffering. Now her spirit can move freely and without pain. Your singing here is ethereal and the video is green and peaceful. Peace to Nettie and to you also.

  • Yes, Thomas, you are right.

    I am only relieved, knowing she is without pain.

    Thank you so much for the words about the singing,... in the space of timelessness I wanted this music you know! You noticed!! Thank you my friend!

    Roeleke

  • Hi Roeleke.... I'm down to 5 cats... they are very special members of the family (including a wife and 2 kids)... thanks for taking the time to express your love for a beautiful creature... George

  • Yes, they really are, George... actually after my George died, we are family together, me and the cats, haha, they still allow me to be in their group, haha!

    Thank you so much for your great support!

    Roeleke

  • Great Tribute ROELEKE, the people only do to the right thing when it is done what the heart orders.

    Therefore you made the right, I'm sad, but life is like this.

    A great hug, we will feel the absence of Nettie

    My English is bad, I hope understands me.

    Rosa

  • Dear Rosa, your words are clear and in great English, my friend. Yes, that is the right thing to do,... when listening to the heart, you won't regret. I am so relieved that her struggle is over.

    Have a great week! Roeleke

  • A touching tribute to little Nettie Roeleke! I am sorry to hear you had to let her go, but am glad she is no longer suffering. Our Greyson is nearly 14 yrs old, but thankfully, still in pretty good health. -Derek

  • Dear Derek, she was as light as a feather, and was still eating the day before, but she was so weak. I had to do this for her. And you know, I am so thankful that we are able to let them go, if necessary. Nettie had a great time here.

    I am relieved that she doesn't suffer anymore.

    Big hug to you and Greyson! :-)

  • Incredibly sensitive and beautiful video. Thanks so much for sharing!

  • Thank you so much for your wonderful comment! Roeleke

  • Sad to hear but I bet kitty heave has endless balls of yarn!!

    TTFN

    Peace be with you!!

    Bruce

  • Hehe, my friend... I had some myself... how many ? Endless, haha... spinning wheels, knittingmachines etc etc... :-)

    Thank you for your great comment!

    Roeleke

  • This was sad and sweet all at once. Roeleke, your car trips have a calming quality. :) 5*

  • Thank you so much, MamaLouisa, so great to hear that. That was the goal, to feel the calm and green!

    Roeleke

  • Roeleke,I feel your pain...only but a month since my Bill crossed the bridge.I too have him here and know it was the right thing to keep him from more pain and suffering. They will be waiting for us...and one day we too will cross over and see them again. :o)

  • Sorry to hear about Bill, dear Tom.

    I am sure of that, my friend... they never leave. I guess now with my George? :-)

    Have a wonderful Sunday!

    Roeleke

    It`s part of it

  • Yes, Ferd, you are right. And I accept that totally.

    Thank you! Roeleke

  • Amazing video and music!

  • Thank you so much for your nice comment!

    Roeleke

  • Dear Roeleke I send my deepest sympathy to you. I've seen your vid anf felt the deep emotion you putted into your music.

    Love and peace to you. Uli

  • I love my animals dear Uli. But the suffering and pain bothers me for them. When she had to go, I really felt relieved for her. Ofcourse she will be missed. Every pet is different and special!

    Thanks my friend!

    Have a great weekend! Roeleke

  • so sorry

  • Thanks Inky!

  • bravo Roeleke for your improvisation & inspiration ; so sorry for your cat....this video and song for remembering ; compliments for the video too, friendly & kisses, patrick

  • Oh Patrick, thank you for your great comment! So glad you like the music also, I just let it grow, at first with voice and keyboard, and later with more voices.The route is about 11 km and really so beautiful green.

    Have a great weekend! Roeleke

  • Roeleke, my dearest friend, many tears for this

    Your musical improvisation is beautiful and your video, even being made in a sad occasion, is very,very good.You live in a wonderful region.

    I'm so sorry for your 4 legged friend missing.

    Antonio

  • My dear Antonio, so good to see you. You know, about Nettie, I can deal with the death of my little 4legged friend, for me it is the worst when they are ill and suffering. I am really in peace with her passing! Yes, I wanted to show you all the beautiful surroundings here. And you know, this way of making music is what I really prefer, so Nettie gave me a lot of inspiration!

    So great you like the music also my friend!

    Big hug from your friend Roeleke

  • we are so sorry for you

    you are in our heart's

    love and respect

    scotty and libby:0(

  • Thank you so much, my lovely friends!

    Roeleke

  • Roeleke, I am so sorry about the passing of your cat! This is such a beautiful dedication to her!

  • Dear Karen, thank you so much. Always sad to let go, but I can deal with it, because it was the best for her to do and the only thing that was left to do, was to let go this way.

    About the music, it was just growing, the improvisation. That is just "my thing".

    Have a wonderful Sunday, Karen. Thank you so much for your friendship!

    Roeleke

  • nice video, sorry for your lost :=(

    Roeleke

  • R.I.P.

  • THis is so sad video

    Did you cry

    Nice great video to your cat

  • Ofcourse I did, but not for long, because I know this was the best I could do for her. I have more cats, but that doesn't change, that they all are special, and always will be missed.

  • I'm really sorry. The loss of a pet is enormous. peace2u. eric

  • Eric, thank you my friend. Yes, you are so right. I feel rich, having my animals around me. Am thankful for having my experience with little Nettie. It is so great to see how such a little one can change in being a happy cat! That is just such a joy!

    Have a great Sunday! Roeleke

  • Beautiful Tribute for a great Friend. Such a wonderful story of Your Relationship...Great drive too. Thanks for sharing YourHeart..

  • Our cat Meegosh died about a month ago... I'm sorry for your cat, and I TOTALLY understand you... :'(

  • I am so sorry for you about Meegosh. It is always sad to let them go, but I hope you remember the good times, they must be many!

    Thank you so much! Roeleke

  • Sorry to hear about your friend Roeleke, may Nettie rest in peace. We lost three of our pets (two dogs and a cat) all within a year from old age. The cat we had for 27 years, the whole time we've been married and the dogs were both about 15 years old. We lost them last year. I had to put one asleep and the others just died on their own. We've now rescued a cute little miniature pincher named Spike and another beautiful cat named Fluffy. Animals help give meaning to our life's. Mark

  • Dear Mark, that is so sad to loose them, especially in such a short time. And wow, 27 years old, that is just a long time, in your lifes too. Yes, they do, my friend. And they just helped also so much. When I think of the years after George his death, they gave most comfort, and accepted!

    Great you have Fluffy now! Thank you for your words my friend!

    Roeleke

  • Dear Roeleke,

    So sorry for your very sweet cat Nettie and you!!!!!

    Thanks for sharing this wonderful picture from Nettie with us, we know how difficult it us to say goodbye to a very loyal friend!

    Our dog Rakker is 12 years old, I don't want to think about it to loose him!!

    Just great to hear you have given Nettie a wonderful time and she don't need to suffer anymore!!! You are a very sweet woman Roeleke, because you are so worried about animals, and so on!

    My compliments, 5*

    Bye chris.

  • Dear Chris, For me it is normal to take care of animals if possible.

    But you know, animals give us so much, they just accept us the way we are. I think they are great examples for us, to be real.

    I think now of the many times animals gave me comfort. So I thank them!

    Roeleke

  • Thanks so much for sharing Nettie's story of adoption and a happy life with a peaceful ending. Could hear the angels singing. Isn't it helpful to make these remembrances of them and pause like here to reflect on their passing? Our vet said that doing a memory project like a photo book or something like you've done here can help with the passing. I mourn with you Roelke. Thank you. Frank from Minnesota in America

  • Dear Frank, it is so good to see you, my friend. Yes, I agree with that what your vet said. P.e. with the tributes to my George, that helped me so very much!

    Thanks my friend! Hope you do well!!

    Big hug from Roeleke

    Have a great weekend!

  • In order to comment on this video I had to fill in the comment codeword, he word was leavecat

    i thought I should tell you that,I thought too how strange that such a code word was needed to comment on a dearly loved cat of Roeleke,I am sorry to hear about the demise of Nettie. I have been there several times with my pets too. Gee how it hurts,but they are never gone, just seperated.Many are the times when I have caught a glimpse in the corner of my eye of more that one of my departed friends.

  • Dear David, you are so right, you know I just wrote at Jolanda her comment, that our friend Tom wrote, our beloved are in a world besides ours, and I think animals too. Yes, I had my experiences too with letting them go. 3 months after George passed away, my bengal Makepiece had her deathstruggle in the night, and that was the worst time for me ever. I though can accept when the struggle is over. I went with her to the vet to let her go more easily. (thinking of your big loss too my friend!)

  • About the last part of your comment: I recognize that very well, not only with our pets.

  • The music is really beautifull and in catheaven Nettie will love it too I bet;-) Yeshe

  • Thank you so much, Yeshe, for your words. I hope she does! :-)

    Roeleke

  • bless and may nettie rip. I am sorry for your loss and send you love and healing. peace and love always and only my dear sweet friend. xo

  • Thank you so much, you are such a kind soul!

    Have a great weekend!

    Roeleke

  • Hi Roeleke What a beautiful tribute to little Nettie.

    Nettie had a rough start in life but sounds like with you she found true happiness.

    Beautiful music improvisation.

    Peace

    Blake and Angel

  • Hello my dear ones, so good that you are here! Nettie was in a box in the cage besides me when I drove back home. And you know, it felt okay, and peaceful. I drove home in easy speed. You see the Bluefx effect, thanks to you?? :-)

    Have a great weekend! Roeleke
