As I posted the other day, November 13, 2013 was the day I adopted Ruby, which means today was supposed to be our 11th gotcha day anniversary. Here's some pics from her first day with me.
In the car
Checking out her new home
A little rest after all her exploring
Her sweet innocent little face
And here's a pic from last year's gotcha day anniversary. I still can't believe we didn't have more time, but though she may not be physically here with me, but she'll be in my heart forever. Miss you, baby girl.

I'm sending a big hug to you from me R ruby USER]'s---- I can't help but look at Timmy who's nearing 9yrs old and thinking about how he really just got here,I pray many years of good health but it's never long enough anyway- 2 decades with my Cheech was too little time
I'm so sorry,I know what you feel- Ruby was such an angel,a joy every moment and adorable to look at- a very special sweetheart..... so very much to miss
Still she brings us happiness just by looking at her beautiful self in photos
Rest in peace lovely lady Ruby

Thank you
Kwik
for your lovely words. 
Sorry I made you cry, though. I was crying while typing it too. Maybe it's because she was my first cat of my own, but I still miss her, despite having sweet Pretty, who ironically I wouldn't have, if I still had Ruby.
Your Timmy is still young, so hopefully you have many more years with him. But time goes by so fast, and no matter how long we have them, as you know with Cheddar, it really is never enough.

I know with my username, it's not likely Ruby will be forgotten, but it's still nice that people are still reading her thread.

and so was(is)Ruby...... whatever you have in your heart,on your mind and what you share is important to me( all of us )..I felt like I knew Ruby,like family and you know how she reminded me of CheechI wish I could look through my Cheechs photos and pay tribute to him as you do Ruby,they deserve that.....maybe being here with you ,for the Memory of Ruby I might get strong enough
Ditto! (Although I am finding my pics of Feeby are pretty slim.)
So I'm not alone? I just fall apart
I admire
rubysmama
selfless love,having such strength to face her grief and do this for Ruby.......It's a privilege to be here

I will never be able to get over how Ruby had the pinkest little ears, nose, and mouth. Such a pretty little girl.
Speak of anniversaries, 10 days from now (the 23rd) will mark the day Goofy started having problems before his very short battle ended.

Maybe in time you'll be able to look through Cheech's photos and pay tribute to him. I can't promise you won't cry though. But sometimes the tears are healing too.You are loved

My pictures of Ruby are in clumps, with gaps between taking pics. I thought I had a pic of each of her gotcha days, but when looking, realized I'd only taken pics the last few years. Sometimes, despite how easy it is to take pictures now, we just don't think of it.
I knew Carleton's gotcha day was close to Ruby's. Sending hugs to you today.I could never forget Ruby's Gotcha Day because Carleton's was shorty after, it's tomorrow.
I didn't realize you only had 5 1/2 years with Geoffrey. Despite the pain of him getting sick so soon, I'm glad he was with you, who could not have been a better cat mom for him.
A lot of bittersweet anniversaries this month. Hugs to you with the one that's coming up for you.I will never be able to get over how Ruby had the pinkest little ears, nose, and mouth. Such a pretty little girl.
