Hello everyone! It’s hard to believe, but this is the last Thankful Thursday for 2013. We just have to wonder where the time goes, it just seems to fly by sometimes, and other times, not so fast.
In truth, 2013 was not overly kind to us, especially in the sickie department. So we’re sure hoping that 2014 is kinder in that regard. We’ve battled those evil bugs for what seems like the longest time.
All in all though, we’ve got an incredible amount of things to be thankful for in 2013. We are thankful for Sister Gracie and her spunk and fight. She wasn’t supposed to make it when she had pneumonia, but she fought and fought, and we are so thankful for that. We also helped quite a few critters get forever homes this year. While it is never as many as we would like, we are thankful there are some out there enjoying their new forever homes.
When Gracie first got sick, our sweet friend Noodle gave us the Versatile Blogger Award.
Thank you so much Noodle, we sure appreciate you thinking of us and sharing such a nice award. We were dealing with Gracie being sick and we totally missed this one.
Most of all though, we’re thankful for all of you, the most amazing friends ever. You stuck by us in our sickie battles and sent us an army of purrs, woofs and prayers. Your support and devotion got us through some difficult times. May of you had difficult times this year too and we understand your pain and your heartbreak. We love you all so much.
Here’s to 2014, happiness and health for each of you. Remember, adopt cats, we deserve it!!!!! More Forever Homes More Often! Purrrrr! Zip! Later!
We sure hope 2014 year is better ta all of you!
We hope that 2014 is a healthy and happy one for all of your Thankful Thursdays!
We hope you all had a lovely day full of fun and good cheer.
Have a tremendous Thursday.
Best wishes Molly
Brian I have a lot to be thankful for too – all of us do if we just stop our busy lives long enough to think about it…life is good….we hope like CRAZY that your house is full of good health in the new year – we know it’s been rough for you so here’s to a GRAND 2014 with good health, fun, happy tales of kitties finding forever homes, and most of all tons of LOVE.
Hugs, Sammy and his Mom
We sure hope 2014 will be a much better year for all of us!
I wish you all nothing but joy, health and happiness in 2014! I am so glad that while 2013 was difficult for you guys in the end you all proved how tough and strong you are, especially that Gracie. We are so thankful for your friendship.
We are so thankful to have you as friends, and sure hope you do have a nice healthy next year. You have had more than your share of illness. Anyway, have a great day.

Hi Brian, Hi family!

Always something to be thankful for, but yeah the buggies make that worse indeed, hopefully none for any of us in 2014
I hope you all have a great 2014…you certainly deserve it!
Concats on your award and we hope 2014 will be kinder to you all and we hope that many more cats (all animals) will find forever homes.

Hoping the new year is a healthier one for all!
Brian we too are hoping 2014 is a nice fresh new beginning. 2013 has not been a smooth one for us as well. We miss our Abby and all the other non cat things that have gone on which made this year very stressful for our Mom. We are purring that all of your family continues to enjoy good health. WE are so thankful for all you do and just for you in general. Thank you for everything you do to help get so many kitties their forever homes.
2013 was a tough year, but we hope 2014 is better for everyone! Concats on your well deserved award!
We hope very healthy and happy new year for all of you!!
We hope you have a better and healthy New Year
To a better year darling Brian…a much better year for all of you and the rest of us too who had sickies. xxoo
2013 has been hard on a lot of the kitties in the Cat Blogosphere. But you are right, there are a lot of things to be grateful for too. Gracie is really a miracle cat!
OH DO WE AGREE WITH YOU ALL. 2013 NEEDS TO MOVE ON OUT TO MAKE ROOM FOR 2014!
HUGS MADI YOUR BFFF
We sure hope y’all stay well in 2014. We are going to eat some extra Hoppin John just for y’all. Supposedly that will make us and y’all healthy, wealthy and wise.
Congrats on your award. Here’s hoping 2014 is a much better year for you and your furbabies.
I can remember years in the past that were especially bad….one year we lost a dog to cancer, a cat to a tragic accident, my dad was seriously ill and my mom died later that year. There are just some years we want to get behind us. But there are always good things in there too. Here’s hoping that 2014 is better for everyone! We are also grateful for the wonderful supportive friends we have made through the blog.
I hope 2014 brings you all good health. Me and my mum and dad will be glad to see the back of 2013.
Brian, we purr that 2014 brings all of you good health and that all the nasty bugs are left in 2013. Congrats on your award too!
We hope you have a better 2014. TW is happy that she met your Dad this year. Now she either has pneumonia or she’s really allergic to our tree this year. We haven’t have one of these in years and that’s prolly the reason why we haven’t. I’m so glad you’re my blogging furrend.
ConCATulations on your great award, Brian! We sure are wishing for a very blessed 2014 for you and your family!
We will join the blog hop from home Brian…
Amen to your sentiments. 2014 needs to be better for so many.
Some years are just best to forget. Start fresh in 2014, and we are thankful that you kitties are all fighters!
Hope 2014 brings nothing but GOOD THINGS! Oh and we LOVE Noodles! Concatulations!
We hope 2014 brings you many healthy and happy days!!! We love you, dear friends. <3
Purrs and hugs,
Carmine, Milita, and Jewel
2013 has been a rough year for us too. We sure hope 2014 is a better one for us all.
