I just sent my kitten to the Bridge

[Pea-n-Me]

I'm glad you were there for her. Wish she could have pulled through.

Oh that is so sad, I am so sorry to hear of your loss.

hey

 

[Virgo10]

I will lend to you for awhile a kitten, God said.
For you to love while he lives, and mourn when he's dead.
Maybe for twelve or fourteen years, or maybe two or three.
But will you, 'till I call him back, take care of him for me?

He'll bring his charms to gladden you and, should his stay be brief
You'll always have his memories as solace for your grief.
I cannot promise he will stay, since all from earth return.
But there are lessons taught below that I want him to learn.

I've looked the whole world over in search of teachers true.
And from the folk that crowds life's land I have chosen you.
Now will you give him all your love, nor think the labor vain?
Nor hate me when I come to take my kitten home again?

I fancied then that I replied 'Dear Lord Thy Will Be Done'
For all the joys this kitten brings the risk of grief we'll run.
We'll shelter him with tenderness, we'll love him while we may.
And for the happiness we've known, forever grateful stay.

But should you call him back much sooner than we planned,
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes, and try to understand.
If, by our love we've managed your wishes to achieve,
Then in memory of him we loved, please help us while we grieve.

When our cherished kitten departs this world of strife,
Please send yet another one to love for all his life.

Nice that she had you at the end

So sad. Poor little thing. But, you did what you could for her. Yours might have been the only love she experienced in her short life.

14 years ago my co-worker found 2 kittens. I took them both home but one died that same night. I still have the other one though. Her name is Bethany and she is old and deaf and losing her fur but she'll always be my baby.

How kind you are to have taken care of the kitten. She had some love and caring when she needed it. I wish she had been healthier but you did the right thing for her. Take care.

Virgo10 - thanks for the poem....brought tears to my eyes - so beautiful.

KatelynnsAuntie - I'm so glad that one kitty survived for you. I'm sure Bethany brings you great joy.

To all - thanks so much for your caring words. They really do mean a lot to me.
