Oh, Laurence, I am so sorry for you and Gina. We just finished a special prayer vigil over on the Pet Prayer and Praise blog, just for Frisky and family.
I can't say much right now (for once!), just know that you, Gina and Nardo are in my heart and thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.
And that maybe right now, Frisky is meeting my beloved Bear.

Laurence, I remember well your kindness in your support and condolences to me when my beloved Ariel passed in July '06.
So broken of heart and devoid of spirit was I, that I never properly replied to the many who gave solace. I wish now to rectify that, and to offer to you the same comfort and support which you so graciously gave to me.
I'm at work right now, but when I'm home tonight, I shall scoop up Ariel's 13 year-old brother Harley, and give him the extra snuggles and kisses in memory of your sweet Frisky.
Cats become a part of our souls.
Again, Laurence.... thank you, and may the Good Lord soon ease the pain for you and yours.
