Miss Tina,
Stewie here.... you know, my hooman doesnโt always smell whatโs right in front of her nose! Youโd think sheโd smell really good โcuz her nose is right close to her face, mines really far away!!ย
So it was close to two months ago that I celebrated my 8 Month Ampuversary and my 8th Barfday right... well of all the audacityโs that could happen, no one in town had any Hedgies ๐ซ๐ฆ๐ซโ๏ธโ๏ธ It was shortly after that my Mum took me into Home Hardware and in the basket was a Angel ๐ Hedgie ๐ฆโผ๏ธ I knew it was from Manni!! ๐ซโจ I knew he was sending me his special Hedgie โcuz he knew I had missed out on my special Barfday/Ampuversary Hedgie! But she wouldnโt listen Tina!! She said that she wasnโt ready for any Angel Hedgies, but I tried telling her it wasnโt ABOUT ME, it was FOR ME! I knew it was from Manni, Tina, I knew it!ย
It took Miss Holly to remind Mum that she had remembered my Mum talking about ย that Angel Hedgie and that she thought maybe it was from Manni...? THANK YOU MIZ HOLLY!!! ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ Finally, you got through to someone Manni!!! ๐ซโจ๐ฆโจ๐ซ ย ๐ย
i always figured Miss Holly was smart, so she sent Mum on a mission to that store with me today and guess what Tina... Manniโs Angel Hedgie was still there!!! He was sitting waiting for me, hiding behind all of the other flaky toys! I got him home Miss Tina, Mannisโs gift ๐ has arrived!ย
Thank you MissTina for asking about Manni signs, I would have been waiting furever! Me and Manni would have had to have caused a right ruckus in that store one of these days and knocked over that basket and just taken the bloomin Hedgie that Manni has been trying to send me for almost two months now!ย
Thank you Miss Holly for remembering that Mum had poopooโd that Angel Hedgie ย
Most importantly, thank you Manni for such a cool flyinโ Angel Hedgie!๐ซโจ๐๐ฆโจ๐ซ
ยMuch Ruv and many hugs coming your way Tina and a million Spirit kisses to your very special Manni

We talked about Angel Manni sending hedgehogs to Stewie but with his off daze and him digging out an angel hedgie it was scary.
Petra left out Stewie was insistent on bringing that angel hedgie home. Stewie dug that Angel out Petra felt we need no angel hedgies and dug in the basket for a different Hedgie she found one with a warm coat. ๐ Since Stewie was losing his undercoat, it was more fitting at the time.
So see we can all miss signs when we are not our selves.
Manni wanted Stewie to have that hedgie, Tina.
Manni will never be forgotten Tina I promise you that! He lives on within every one of us!
I still have my call out to Mr. Manni to show us a sign; I asked Mark to keep an eye out too.
Sending you a big hug & Spirit kisses to Manni!
Fรผr immer in unseren Herzen!
No coicendeces I am keeping track;)ย

I'm with you Sally, I missed this whole topic too! Which isn't as surprising as you missing itย .
Sally and I know the BIGGEST SIGN out there, and we're patiently waiting for it to be revealed!
Paula and Warrior Angel Nitro
P.S. I am a huge believer in signs, and I haven't gotten one from Nitro in quite awhile. The other day though, I was talking to Grizz, John heard me and said "what?" I said, "I'm talking to NITRO....I mean Grizz" - that just came out of my mouth, out of the blue.
Nitro 11 1/2 ย yr old Doberman; right front amp June 2014. Had 6 doses carboplatin, followed by metronomic therapy. Rocked it on 3 legs for over 3 years! My Warrior beat cancer, but couldn't beat old age. He crossed the Bridge peacefully on July 25, 2017, with dignity and on his terms. ย Follow his blog entitled "Doberman's journey"
"Be good, mama loves you".....run free my beautiful Warrior
I'm anxious to see what that sign is ๐ I blundered over here not long ago as well.ย
I have almost renamed Oscar to Gazoo. I lost Gazoo, my 16 year old cat and he sent me Oscar when he was 5 weeks old. I think he sent me Huck too, like an Oscar kitty wasn't enough ๐คฏ๐คฏย Every once in a while Gazoo's name still comes out of my mouth and it's only when I'm referring to Oscar.ย
Every once in a while I still catch my Rosie girl out of the corner of my eye. It doesn't happen as often as it used to but when it does it always surprises me and makes me give a double take.ย
I really think those signs come when you least expect them. When something else has your attention and your mind is a hundred miles away.
I have no doubt that Manni will show himself. It's not a matter of "if", it's just a matter of "when".ย
Regardless of how long it takes, those souls are deeply imbedded into our hearts forever. That is one thing that we all share in common, and I believe it's part of why we're here.ย

Hugs,
Jackie, Bo, Andy, Oscar, Phoebe, and the coolest feral tripawd kitty Huckleberry
Tina, I was listening to a radio show last night, which featured an animal communicator. I totally thought of you whenย a woman called, sad that her dog hadn't given her any signals in the year since he passed. The communicator said something that you may find helpful. She said:ย
Have you asked him to show up?
The woman was kind of surprised, it seemed like the obvious thing to do. She hadn't done it.ย So the communicator suggested for her to go find the most favorite place where her dog used to enjoy himself, where they had good times together. Once there, she suggested to the woman to clear her mind, breathe, meditate, and get every worry and expectation out of her head. Then simply ask her dog "Give me a sign that you're okay, please."
So maybe if you haven't done this, it's worth a try. The sign may not happen then and there, but by asking, you can nudge Manni along.
((((hugs)))
