Those colours certainly are great – I can see why you miss her so much. When I was a kid, most of our cats were either black ones or tabbies. Most had the dark brown stripes but a hew had the orangey stripes (marmalade!)
We had a little Cocka-poo Terrier with similar coloring. Beautiful fur, thick and wavy and he hardly shed. Did you know that all cats are striped at the roots of their fur? I read that somewhere and began investigating my cats and sure enough, if you look very closely, you can see the faint shading of the stripes. I love marmalade cats. We had an outdoor cat, a big sweet tom named Cheeto. Loved his coloring.
We ought to refer you to the children’s book, “The Velveteen Rabbit”, about a stuffed toy that was loved into being. Just as the chaRActers have been “loved into being” (see “Sloth Fiction” by fedoralady) they have gained immortality, becoming “so not dead” (SND). Does that make it a little clearer?

A gorgeous image of a gorgeous girl, now SND, long may she reign.
Now contentedly curled up at Sir Guy’s side, purring like the finest V8 Caddy engine.
Both full of ice cream, I’d imagine.
I feel your pain, Angie my dear: she was really beautiful. Glad she’s SND.
Beautiful Angie…
What means SND please ?
So Not Dead….
She was a cutie.
Thanks Laurie.
She was indeed a very beautiful cat.

Yes, thank you.
Awwww, lovely!
I teared up while working on it but I did think she looked so lovely.
Absolutely gorgeous!!!
Puddie is smiling over your compliment.
