Default Sqweex, Rainbow Bridge, January 13

Mishi,
Thank you for the beautiful poem.
It is very comforting to us.
Love and blessings,
Kyla

It is with great sorrow that I have to tell
you that our 12 year old beautiful
long haired tortoiseshell cat
Sqweex went to Rainbow Bridge,
this morning or last night.
She slept beside me for awhile last night, & purred me to sleep.
This morning about 7 am PST
I found her in the room where she had her last meal.
She didn't seem sick at all. .
The other 3 cats came running into the bedroom yowling, and when I went
into
the laundry room
Sqweex was laying on the floor. lifeless.
I am in tears as I write this.
Sqweex had the loudest purr and was such a sweet kitty.
So soft, so loving.
I called her my pretty girl and my beautiful girl.
On Facebook that's her picture, where mine is.
She was such a sweetheart. Her 10 year old daughter Pipps
is wandering around looking for her Momcat.
They were inseparable.
Dutch will take Sqweex to be cremated today.
Our hearts are broken,
Love,
Kyla

THE CAT BED IN THE SKY

I thought that you might like to know I got here safe and sound
Though you must feel rather strange not having me around;
Of course, I am not really gone, I've just moved out of sight,
And I don't need that old body, things had stopped working right.
Sometimes I'm sorely tempted, to pop back down and see,
Just how you are managing, without any help from me,
But I'm sure that you will understand I can't come back to stay,
Though I have it on good authority that we'll meet again some day.

The chow up here's delicious - Ambrosia brand, it's named,
Once you've tasted this stuff, Friskies won't taste the same,
And where do they get this nectar, which thick and creamy comes,
It's not like other dairy products 'cause it don't give me the runs.
I haven't found the litter tray, and THIS perplexes me,
That however much I wolf down, I never have to pee.
But there are other plus points, which cannot be ignored,
My claws have all come back again and there are drapes here to be clawed.

Oh yes - I've got a comfy bed, just like mine down there at home,
So things here are quite adequate, I cannot gripe or groan;
But while I'm up here waiting, in my cat bed in the sky,
I'll regularly look in on you, and keep a watchful eye.
