Goodbye furry friend
May your spirit live in my heart
You were a friend that gave your love
To all of those you knew


You loved me without fail
And you gave me your love always
Now you're in peace at the bridge
And your purr lives on in my heart


(refrain)
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a friend of endless grace
Never wavering in your support
When I had bad times
And your love lives on in my heart
And lasting memories
Your purr stopped too soon, oh, but
My memories never will


Loving you with ease
Those many days spent by my side
Memories I'll always have
of my furry beloved friend


Even though I try
Your loss hurts me so much
All my words cannot express
The joy you brought me through the years


(refrain)
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a friend of endless grace
Never wavering in your support
When I had bad times
And your love lives on in my heart
And lasting memories
Your purr stopped too soon, oh, but
My memories never will



Pretty stupid huh? Grown man crying over a stupid cat.

Not at all. I remember when I was in my early 20's and my d*g died. I
bawled for days. Hell, I even got misty-eyed when my family's oldest
cat, a cat that had been with us since I was a teenager, died last year
or the year before, and I'm in my 30's now.

Please no lectures about letting him out.

Live and learn... That's part of what life's for, IMHO... to live and
learn.

I am so sorry for your loss (and apologize for being so late in saying
so).

Welcome to the community. Usually my Mietze acts as spokeskitty, and
she'd tell you about our Jellicle Ball. During the first full moon in
October, we gather to pay tribute to our friends who have gone on
ahead. Their names are respectfully called, and a family member or
close friend can take the opportunity to post about them.

There is a webpage which records each year's Calling of Names:
http://www.geocities.com/bccclub/walk.html

If you would like, Mietze would include your Kitty in this year's
Calling; please either post or write back privately with Kitty's
"House of" name.

David,

I am sorry to be so late in sending you condolences. It is never "stupid"
to cry for a loved ones loss no matter their species. You loved Kitty and
Kitty loved you, it is as simple as that. May the Kitty sized hole in your
heart start to heal and may the hole be filled with wonderful memories of
the time you had together.

Kitty died. Had him for 12 years. He was my best friend. A large
spotted tabby. A girl that was walking her dog found him across the
street. She came to the door about 10 this morning and said that she
read his collar with my name and address. I had just made him a new
one Monday night because he did not have his old one on. I was
wondering why he did not come home last night. In the back of my mind
I knew something was wrong. But not this. I just buried him in the
yard facing home with some of his favorite food and toys. The next
thing it did was put away any reminders of him. I was just carrying
him in my shoulder the other night like a bird. And he was laying on
my chest on the bed getting a rub down. He loved to be petted. I keep
seeing him looking at me.
