Gain's time with you may have been short but you gave him a wonderful life. The story of the laundry detergent names is too cute. Dusty Bottom's story was so hard to read. I cannot fathom how anyone could hurt an innocent animal. You are a good soul to have opened your home and hearts to both of them. I am glad to hear that DB seems to be doing ok. Hugs to both of you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bye-sweet-gain/page/2#post-1261980 Tue, 27 May 2014 12:58:38 +0000 Elizabeth P 1261980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I missed this yesterday Shannon, I'm so sorry to hear it.&nbsp; Loosing&nbsp; a pet is hard.&nbsp; You realize how unique thier little (big) personalities are, and how their funny little habbits become part of your lives.&nbsp; I hope Dusty Bottom does ok.&nbsp; And thanks for sharing their stories. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bye-sweet-gain/page/2#post-1261921 Tue, 27 May 2014 11:43:34 +0000 Jaime 1261921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is so sad when pets die.

The photo of Gain and Dusty Bottom together is soooo sweet. What an incredible rescue story! I am glad to hear DB is doing alright so far. We used to have another cat, Ninnin,&nbsp;who passed several years ago and&nbsp;we were concerned with Kitty who&nbsp;also continued to look for her for a long time; they didn't even get along all that well, I can't imagine how he'd have dealt with it if they were close. I hope DB continues to do well, and that he can find his own confidence.

It definitely helps.</p> <p>There is indeed a story behind the names of my fur babies. They both came from a no kill rescue shelter. Gain arrived first. He and his two biological brothers were dropped at the doorstep in a laundry basket and so the rescue named all three kittens after laundry detergent - Tide, Cheer and Gain. Gain was the last of the three to be adopted.</p> <p>Dusty Bottom got his name due to horrendous circumstances. He was found in a wooden crate in a ditch and when the rescue organization opened the crate, they found an 8 week old kitten covered in over 20 cigarette burns and lacerations. He was soaked in blood and when they lifted him out, all the dust that had been in the crate stuck to his bloody body - the rescue worker said "oh my, look at your dusty bottom" and the name stuck.</p> <p>The two kitties were room mates at the rescue and such close buddies. We couldn't adopt Gain and not bring Dusty Bottom too. It took Dusty more than 4 months to let us near him and probably close to year before we could touch him. But he would watch Gain and follow him everywhere. They were very sweet together. Here's a pic of the boys.</p> <p>We were worried about how Dusty would do today but he seems to be doing ok. He ate and used his litter box, which are good signs. He keeps going to Gain's bed and smelling it. So sad. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bye-sweet-gain/page/2#post-1261682 Tue, 27 May 2014 00:03:43 +0000 pil 1261682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, how sad, Shannon. And it came on so quickly. Your little man had a good life with you and was quite the ambassador for Dusty Bottom. I'm curious about both names. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bye-sweet-gain/page/2#post-1261678 Mon, 26 May 2014 23:55:23 +0000 lyn* 1261678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am torn.
