As I write this I have at my feet two small dogs that I love dearly and they feel the same towards me. It seems so unfair that they live such short lives but they bring so much love and pleasure that somehow it is worth it. I am with you in your sorrow and hope that you will find peace and healing in knowing she loves you too.jzrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05938966640494785871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15897842.post-62944714603488260032008-05-30T17:35:00.000-04:002008-05-30T17:35:00.000-04:00Oh my Dear Cate,I, as well, have tears rolling dow...Oh my Dear Cate,<BR/>I, as well, have tears rolling down and that tight knot in the pit of the stomach.

You're never sure if they know what's happening and you feel like such a b*stard, whatever you decide to do. Our we cat Puff died of old age last December. He was 20, and fortunately had never known a sick day in his long life - he was just getting old. Over the last few days, he just slowed down, eating less and sleeping more. We were all around him when he passed to Rainbow Bridge, knowing we will see him there again. His earthly remains now grow a cheery tree.<BR/>Be strong, for if we can make the passing of our friend easier, it is the greatest gift we can give and often not one we can afford to give to our more human friends. <BR/>Love to you and Cassie and wishes for a long Summer,<BR/><BR/>Jeanne xxx /|\<BR/><BR/>PS - we now share our lives with our own Roxie - a young Border Colie Cross rescue dog, who brings us joy we thought we'd never feel again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
