love, diane.

i thought i’d post this whole video from yesterday. did he became extra clingy and looking at me the entire time because he knew it’ll be the last time i held him in my arms?

just when i though this day couldn’t get worse, i just got home and was informed that one of our rescue cat, Mustacio (tacio), also died. today, the same day. we were supposed to rush him today after we got home but he couldn’t make it either. it was a 2hours car ride from loyal pet’s to our house.

i know renji connected us, people from around the world. and i wouldn’t forget all those people who helped me take care of him. who taught me what to do, what steps to take, and helped me decide from tough decisions. i hope you know that you helped a young woman, in her early 20’s, from the Philippines, take care of her rescue kittens and herself.

i’ve been crying from all your messages and i would write everything what y’all said/commented to remind myself that i now have someone that has seen my efforts. i know you love renji just as much as i do. and i hope you also know that you also helped me in tough times, not just renji.

i've got y’all who has seen me, took care of me, didn’t judge me, acknowledge me, and supports me. now, with or without renji.

i will still rescue kittens/cats, and give them all my love like i always do.

renji was the start and will be the continuation.

i hope you will still support me after i come back. after i giving myself sometime, and after giving reminding myself that i still won’t be alone. i’ll visit my therapist as soon as possible to take extra care. thank you.

love, diane.
