I am sure you will be able to adjust just fine. Having Puppy there will make it so much easier. He will definitely become closer to you. Seventeen years is quite a life for a cat and I am sure she had a great life with you.  No regrets. We do what we can, but we are not God. Having that time together is a gift in itself.  I wish you the best with Project Red Book!

Again U thank my CCF family for their kindness. We knew were relocating to near my daughter's house. I know it may sound creepy, but until we just got a chance to go out there this weekend, we had Brookie, of course in her box/casket the vet gave us, in a freezer downstairs. We did not want to leave her here. So now she is finally at rest where "home" will be. She was a joy, and we have very good memories of the most selfless cat I have ever known/seen.

Not creepy at all. She needs to rest where you will be. It's completely understandable.

Not creepy, but for what it is worth all of my past pets (two dogs, three cats) were cremated. All five are together in their ornate wood boxes on a shelf. I have their tags and collars on each box, with other items of theirs placed around. Yeah, it is a shrine. I will admit it.

@jbuck - something I wish I would have thought of. Other pets I have lost, except Brookie and a Lab (Amiga or Ami - named after the computer system of course), I have actually been glad to see go. These were two dogs who refused to be house trained. But my kids loved them both, so it was sad to see the pets go for the kids' sake. Oh, and Brookie was actually "Brookfield," and named after my favorite glass insulator making company. My daughter's doing years ago. Yes, Brookie wore it all day until my daughter took it off of her - that was her kind nature:

Great pic!  If we put a shirt or sweater on our cat, he will first just freeze and act like he can't move, then he'll start very awkwardly walking backwards. It's obvious his movement isn't restricted, but he sure plays it up!

@spruett LOL! Must be interesting to see.
My other cat, puppy, is my comedy relief. I have a deer head mounted on the wall. Its been there since before we got Puppy. One day 5 years or so ago I put a pair of sunglasses on it. This seemed to be the first Puppy noticed the deer. Since that day he slinks by it, staring all the time, whenever he goes by it in either direction. The sunglasses are long gone. But he still is worried that deer is going to get him!

That's funny. We had (not sure what happened to it) a stuffed bobcat and our aforementioned cat, Willie, was always wary of it and gave it special attention when it was atop the entertainment center. When we moved it into an extra room, the first time he went in there he freaked. I don't blame him, really.
