So sorry to hear that you have lost a loving pet, 17 years was a long time and I am certain you will miss him dearly.
It is a sad time but the sadness will ease with time,
thinking of you
hugs

Caroline, I am so sorry for your loss. I will be praying for you.

God looked around his garden,
And found an empty place.
He then looked down upon the earth,
And saw your tired face.
He put his arms around you,
And lifted you to rest;
God's garden must be beautiful.
He always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering,
He knew you were in pain;
He knew you would never get well on earth again.
He saw the road was getting rough
And hills were hard to climb
So he closed your weary eyelids, and whispered,
"Peace be thine."
It broke my heart to lose you,
But you didn't go alone,
For a part of me went with you,
The day God called you home.



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, someone who was left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. Her bright eyes are intent; her eager body begins to quiver. Suddenly, she breaks from the group, flying over the green grass, 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 those trusting eyes, so long gone from your life, but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross the Rainbow Bridge together...


I am so sorry to hear you have lost your beloved pet.

Sorry to hear about this. Sending out prayers your way. Big hugs DeVon

As a pet parent, you did the best you could for all your kitties.
You loved them and took care of them faithfully, whether they were sick or well. You will miss them, but we will all be re-united with our loved ones when we pass on ourselves, even our pets.

So sorry for your loss. I can understand that you feel it is much too quiet.
Hugs to you
