My friend, JZathey, lost her beloved kitty, MicMac, on September 24. Yesterday evening, her beloved Shetland Sheepdog, lay down and went to sleep. Cancer claimed both of them.

Sometimes, life isn't fair.
You get attached to a
cat or dog, but just not
any old cat or dog -
they become family.
And it hurts when they go
to their eternal rest:
MicMac, three weeks ago.
Mickey was a chatty
Maine Coon with a lot of
"purr"sonality; he
was a star on You Tube.
Dar, yesterday evening.
Sweet Dar, a deaf Shetland
Sheepdog, the old sage in
a furry body, the
calm when all went awry.
You live in memory
and won't be forgotten.
Your Mommie and all who
loved you, because you loved
us first, will make sure of
that. Wait for us at the
Rainbow Bridge. We'll be there ...
This is a beautiful and touching poem.Its always hard for anyone to loose a pet because a pet gives everything that even a family or a friend can't give which is loyality,support and unconditional love.Take care
Like Amber, I love the idea of that Rainbow Bridge, Karla. Our dearest feathered-and-furry friends sure tug at our heart-strings oft-times during each and every day and we feel their loss dramatically. I grieve for your friend to have to endure this one after the other. I'm sure this heartfelt tribute will give her strength and comfort, framed alongside her loved-ones' portraits somewhere. You have probably hit the nail on the head when you say the reasons why we love so deeply is because "you loved us first". A great lesson for humanity to learn! Bless you, xx
You have to be american to say'Mommie' and you have to be a good writer to lace the poem/article down the page with that feather-lite-light.hand like you do. nice one.
Its so sad when we loose someone we love, I am sorry that this has happened twice, in the span of less than a month, your friend is in my prayers
In Christs Love

Karla, right on (as usual). We lost Kitty a few years ago
and I still miss her terribly, despite the fact that she
"greets" me at my computer frequently. -gene.
This is very beautiful Karla, It is hard to lose a pet, I have known this loss two times so far in my life. I think of their beautiful spirits often. Lovely poem.
Blessings to you and your friend...I love the Rainbow Bridge line.

Karla, this is written with such sweet honesty and caring.
Cheers and peace,
Dan

This is so beautiful and moving. I have two dogs myself (miniature dachshunds) named Sammy (a rescue) and Claudius (Roman Emperor--acts like it too!). When they go, I will be a mess. I dread that day like you can't believe. Nicely done.
MicMac and Dar will never be forgotten, not if I can help it! So sad: two pets in three weeks; I cannot imagine the pain JZathey must be going through! Heartfelt tribute to a beloved dog; he will live on in this poem (as will MicMac)! Well done; brava!
