I do not post often, regular reader since 2001..................
My 19 year old cat has passed, I'm a mess, I've cried so much I'm getting a headache to go with my heartache. I couldn't bring myself to click on LOL Cat's Day.
Goodbye my sweet, sweet, sweet baby. I'll be seeing you...............
Love You, til we meet again
When i can muster it up i may go to photobucket and post picture.....
Large Main Coon, Orange and White, gentle giant, good with other animals, territorial, smart as a whip, foodie til the end, touched us with his paws to get his way, oh dear...

I lost my NoName 4 or 5 years ago and I actually WEPT for the first time
in my life... and I COULD not stop for three days.
.
The pain doesn't pass, but it does get eased by the happy memories of
the times you had together.

You are quite lucky to have had such a good companion. Feel lucky that you did.
Mourn as you need to - we understand.

(34,057 posts)i lost my little dog twelve weeks ago--and the sadness and grief has been tremendous. i wrote about it in the bereavement group (http://www.democraticunderground.com/1234673)
i found a few sympathy poems (or excerpts) that may help in your hours of grief. again--i'm really sorry. it definately takes time to recover from our partings with those we love.
"And if I go while youre still here
know that I live on, vibrating to a different measure -behind a veil you cannot see through. You will not see me, so you must have faith. I wait for the time when we can soar together again -both aware of each other. Until then, live your life to its fullest. And when you need me, just whisper my name in your heart,
I will be there."
--poem entitled Ascension by Colleen Hitchcock
Warm Summer sun
Shine Kindly Here,
Warm Southern Wind,
Blow Softly Here.
Green Sod Above,
Lie Light, Lie Light--
Good Night, Dear Heart,
Good Night, Good Night.
--excerpt from a poem written by Robert Richardson, titled Annette
"I could sail the waters of all the world, bitter and wild and blue and never find a friend to love like the friend Ive found in you. I could walk down all the roads of the world and knock on the doors forever and never Id find a friend like you, Never, Never, Never."
--attributed to a poem entitled A Poem by My Brother Robert and is an excerpt from The Book of Sunshine, published in Doolin County Claire, Ireland in 1977 by PRF Brown
"Do Believe Ill Never Leave you, Always Ill Be In Your Heart. Dont Forget My Soul Is Near You And So Well Never Be Apart"
--poem Do Believe Ill Never Leave You by Nicholas Gordon.
"Some People Come Into Our Lives And Quickly Go. Some People Move Our Souls To Dance. They Awaken Us To New Understanding With The Passing Whisper Of Their Wisdom. Some People Make The Sky More Beautiful To Gaze Upon. They Stay In Our Lives For Awhile, Leave Footprints On Our Hearts And We Are Never, Ever The Same. "
--modified quotation of the poem Some People by author Flavia Weedn from her book To Take Away The Hurt.
