My Fur Baby is Sick...She's Gone :(

Oh, and my mom called, and when she got home from work her 16 year old gray tabby had died. What a day.... :guilty:

:grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: to both of you.
 
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your beloved cat. They capture our hearts. May the fond memories you have comfort you and your Mom also.

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

She'll bring her charms to gladden you and, should her stay be brief
You'll always have her memories as solace for your grief.
I cannot promise she will stay, since all from earth return.
But there are lessons taught below that I want her 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 her all your love, nor think the labor vain?
Nor hate me when I come to take my kitten home again?

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

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

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

I'm so sorry. :grouphug:

I saw this posted last week, and thought it might fit here.



Rainbow Bridge




Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers.
Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

So very sorry, ugadog, so sad Meeko is gone. :( And your mom's furbaby too. :hug:'s for you both. As said above, they are both at the bridge now.
 
This is really ugadog. I forgot to log off from my daughter. My girls and I thank you all. This has been a terrible day. We just see Meeko everywhere around the house. We appreciate all your kind words. I know time will heal, but it is really difficult right now. She was so young.
 
so sorry for you loss. It is really hard to lose a fur baby.
 
So sorry about Meeko! We went through something similar last year with our 6 yr. old stray Mr. Bojangles--fast spreading facial cancer. It is so sad. I know what your feeling. It does get easier but it takes awhile!
 
Sorry for your loss. I just put down my Standard Poodle on Thursday. I know the heartbreak involved.
