I didn’t know where to put my upsetting news and I’m not trying to steal your thread. Today we lost the last of three cats found at my parents. These cats would travel back and forth for years to the cottage( now my parents house). They lived the life!


Ps I’m Troy

I‘m so sorry for your losses. It’s the absolute worst feeling in the world. At almost 57, I‘ve lost my share over the years. My best friend, Birdie, going on 12 in June.

@HVPGH My condolences. I too know the pain. Take the time to grieve my friend and cherish the memories.

When you are ready…

ROOM IN YOUR HEART

Sorrow fills a barren space;
you close your eyes and see my face
and think of times I made you laugh,
the love we shared, the bond we had,
the special way I needed you -
the friendship shared by just we two.

The day’s too quiet, the world seems older,
the wind blows now a little colder.
You gaze into the empty air
and look for me, but I’m not there -
I’m in heaven and I watch you,
and I see the world around you too.

I see little souls wearing fur,
souls who bark and souls who purr
born unwanted and unloved -
I see all this and more above -
I watch them suffer, I see them cry,
I see them lost, I watch them die.
I see unwanted thousands born -
and when they die, nobody mourns.

These little souls wearing fur
(Some who bark and some who purr)
are castaways who - unlike me -
will never know love or security.
A few short months they starve and roam,
Or caged in shelters - nobody takes home.
They’re special too (furballs of pleasure),
filled with love and each one, a treasure.

My pain and suffering came to an end,
so don’t cry for me, my person, my friend.
But think of the living -
those souls with fur
(some who bark and some who purr) -
And though our bond can’t be broken apart,
make room for another in your home and
your heart.

Sorry for your loss @HVPGH and to the others here who shared. I feel your pain.
Lost my Yorkie 2 days ago and grieving. He lived a long life and was completely spoiled. I’m thankful for all the yrs of joy he brought.
