    We had to put our cat to sleep today

    My poor missy cat. I still remember the night dh brought you home. You were so tiny you fit inside his flannelette shirt pocket.

    You would bite our toes of we weren't patting you and if we stopped patting you before you were done you would bite our fingers. And you most definitely did nt like gentle pats the rougher we patted you the louder you purred. You for some reason could not meow if someone accidentally stepped on your foot (which was often cus you were always under our feet) you would let out a croak.

    You looked like a carpet snake and had the most gorgeous colours

    This morning missy came running up the stairs to be fed as usual so I was surprised to find you A few hurs later looking quite sick and not able to walk properly. We weren't sure what was wrong but you had done this earlier this year but came good after 2 days. Today however things were different. Dh took missy to the vet and we hoped a course of abs would help but no she had had a stroke. Had gone blind and deaf and was unresponsive

    RIP missy. You will be missed. 1997 -2011

    RIP Missy

    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....
