Sad times..
url=https://servimg.com/view/13081100/11][/url]
It seems we have to say goodbye to our beloved Dootie cat on Wednesday after 16 loyal years, 11 house moves (including an overseas one), the loss of her nose through cancer 8 years ago, a resuce mission from a 30ft cabbage tree thanks to the local fire brigade, and many other wonderful memories. Not the best of timing especially when having to break it to our 10 year old son. A lump has developed under dootie's chin that has now got so big she is unable to eat. RIP Dootie

Re: Sad times..
So sorry for you Peke. To lose them is hard enough, but with a 10 year old, AND the day before Christmas... Our thought are with you in these sad times. Your good memories if Dootie will keep him alive in your hearts

Sad Times
Oh peke- lover, I'm so sorry, it is hard to lose them, but take comfort in knowing Dootie has had a wonderful life and how lucky to have had the time on this earth with you.
I saw this poem after losing my beautiful rotti I hope you find some comfort in it and the link to rainbow bridge may help with your son. You, Dootie and Family are in my thoughts
A Special Gift
You're giving me a special gift, so sorrowfully endowed,
And through these last few cherised days, your courage makes me proud,
For really love is knowing, when your best friend is in pain,
And understanding earthly acts will only be in vain.
So looking deep into your eyes, beyond, into your soul,
I see in you the magic, that will once more make me whole.
The courage that you posses is why I look to you today,
To do this thing that must be done, for it's the only way.
That strength is why I've followed you, and chose you as my best friend
And why I loved you all these years my patner till the end.
Please understrand just what this gift you're giving means to me,
It gives me back the strength I've lost and all my dignity.
You take a stand on my behalf, for that is what best friends do,
And know that what you do is right for I believe it to.
So one last time, I breatrhe your sent,and through your hands I feel,
The courage that's within you to grant me this appeal.
Cut the ties that hold me here, dear friend, and let me run,
Once more strong and steady, my pain and struuggle done.
And don't despair my passing, for I won't be far away,
Forever here within your heart, and memory I will stay.
I'll be there watching you, you ever faithful friend,
And in your memories I will become youthful once again.

Hi pekelover,
Hope you and the family had a good christmas.
Just following up on how you all are after your recent loss. It does take time.
Thinking of you all. Hope you and family are doing well.

Re: Sad times..
Thanks Tails a Waggin, that's very thoughtful of you.
Things are Ok, works keeping my mind off it. You forget how hard it hits you when you lose on of your fur babies I think. It's the only downside I can think of to owning pets really.
May it be a reminder to all of us to give our special ones a extra hug today.
Thanks again for your thoughts
