My Kitty is now in heaven

[mudnuri]

Boots, the cat I got 18 years ago passed away last night. DBF found her this morning and after waking me promptly buried her in the back yard.

Boots was a cat that I got when I was in junior high...she was solid black, with white paws- hence the 'boots'. When I moved out of moms house- boots stayed with her. Then last year when I moved again- Boots came with me.

She recently suffered from a thyroid condition and was unable to take the pills. The vet said- it wouldnt be too long, and that she was not in any pain or suffering.

Last weekend mom was here, and we made the decision to have her put down this coming Monday. Now, I get to call my mom and tell her we wont need the appointment.

Dustball- is walking around looking a tad bit lost. Walking to boots favorite laying places and just standing there....

Ugh gotta call the DD's at their dads and tell them.....shesh I hate when animals pass.

Sorry to hear that about Boots, Brandy. Take comfort knowing she is there at the bridge...........

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....​
