March 12, 2010 this beautiful little guy left us for the other side of the Rainbow Bridge. Mister was one of my good friend and neighbor's furry children. If you remember a few weeks ago I had a doggie sleep over. Well, Mister is one of my kitty wards that I visited and gave fluids to each day while my friend was out of town.
Mister was well-traveled having come here from Chile, lived in California and Florida(the places that I know of) and a wonderful lap mate. He loved to climb up in your lap and sleep, purring contentedly. A beautiful loving animal with one grey eye, and one blue eye as you can see here in his picture. He was 16 years old. I will sorely miss this little guy.
Not long ago, Jacira, my friend, lost another wonderful little kitty, named Starfish, to cancer. Starfish with Mister pictured on right.
I don't know about you but a loss of a pet hurts as much or more than people. Some may be offended by that statement but pets give such unconditional love and never turn their backs on you. My opinion and as most of you know, I LOVE ANIMALS!
Thank you for letting me share two very special animals with you that I have grown attached to over the years.
Just this side of heaven lies the Rainbow Bridge.
When a beloved pet dies, it goes to the Rainbow Bridge.
It makes friends with other animals and frolics over rolling hills and peaceful lush meadows of green. They are as healthy and playful as we remember them in days gone by.
Together, the animals chase and play, but the day comes when a pet will suddenly stop and look into the distance... bright eyes intent, eager body quivering. Suddenly recognizing you, your pet bounds quickly across the green fields and into your embrace. You celebrate in joyous reunion. You will never again separate.
Happy tears and kisses are warm and plentiful, your hands caress the face you missed. You look into the loving eyes of your pet and know that you never really parted. You realize that though out of sight, you love had been remembered.
You cross the Rainbow Bridge together.
