It is her permanent shrine which we created after 30 days of mourning at her altar:
and it now stands under the window, by the tiger named Lilly, who she was never afraid of:
Here you can see it at it's permanent place, and you already saw it in one of the pictures from our Secret Paw post:
This is a close up of it, it has a star on top because Anastasia now is a star. And the sun. And we all know she is cat enough to do both jobs!!! There are windows for six pictures and the whole box turns around on it's base.
And there are many many things inside! Some of her favorite toys. Some dried shrimp. The poem I wrote. Monte's picture. More pictures of herself. One of the booklets she wrote with me. Gifts from other cats.
Anastasia we miss you sooo much.
We will ALWAYS love you!

That's a beautiful box and tribute to Ana. Pity I never ahd a chance to know her!
This is soooo beautiful!!
We were too late into the cat blogosphere to know Anastasia as good as others do, but we know the feeling of missing a family member so well. Anastasia's spirit, as well as your memories will always be there and alive. You'll meet again...
Love,
Ruis, our other kitties & the staff
I did not know Anastasia but I do know she was loved by so many and was such a beautiful cat. This was a beautiful, touching, sweet tribute to her. I know she would be so proud.
That is such a touching post. We all love her and miss her. Love, Alexi
That's just beautiful. And fitting. We miss Anastasia and think of her in our dreams while the sun warms our furs.
oh my cat that box is beeeeyootiful!! Just like Anastasia - she is sorely missed by everyone. Such a character, and how fitting to have a shrine to her - she can watch over everyone forever. I think she probably likes it when you mourn at the shrine. I know I would. xx
That is a beautiful Box of Live and the contents are to be treasured. Reading about it made our mum get leaky eyes again.
Anastasia, we miss you muchly too. We hope you and our big sis angel kitty Missy are having a fun time on the Bridge!
AND MERRY CHRISTMAS!

That is a lovely remembrance box for Anastasia.
How wonderful a tribute this is. This must be a very hard time for your beans. We miss her very much. We are very glad to see you keep her memory very much alive here. She would like that.
She was very brave, I would have been afraid of that tiger!

I am touched by your box of life Ana! SO many beautiful things like you are dear. Do you know how loved you are....of course you do. We will always remember you and keep you close in our hearts. Once there, never forgotten!
Love Miss Peach
I stopped by because I wanted to get to know Anastasia better. I can tell that she was such a loved kitty. She would be so happy that you have kept these things of hers and that you have a shrine to her. I know you all miss her. I wish that I knew her when she was here.
We never knew Anastasia either, but we know she was well loved and her family still misses her very much. Her 'Box of Life' is a wonderful tribute to her.

I know this is an older post but I am sorry for your loss and I know Anastasia is waiting for you at Rainbow Bridge.
