Some of you know that I've had troubles with my tail lately. Mom was afraid to take me in for surgery, because I'm not young anymore! Well, it got so bad that she had to risk it this week. The good news is that I'M BACK! I feel so much better! My tail's a little shorter now, though, and they wrapped this gigantic piece of cloth around it!August 1, 2008
Well, things didn't get better, so they actually had to take the rest of my tail off. Now all the birds in the area call me "stubby"! I just had the surgery a couple of weeks ago, so I'm still kind of lethargic. (Didn't know us cats had such good vocabularies, did you?) I'm going to be seventeen next month.August 15, 2008
That wound on my tail was cancer. The cancer got me. That's why they kept shortening it. Unfortunately, they couldn't get all of it, and it metastasized throughout my body. I'm going to miss sneaking into planes and hanging out with my pilot friends. But remember, I've gone to a better place.For all of you....
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow
Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially
close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow
Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our
special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or aimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your
special friend finally meet, you cling together in
joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The
happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands
again caress the beloved head, and you look once
more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long
gone from your life but never absent from your
heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....
