Rest in Peace

Rest in Peace, George. We loved you.
Pam left this poem for me in the comments. I think it says it all.
There's something missing in my home,
I feel it day and night,
I know it will take time and strength
before things feel quite right.
But just for now, I need to mourn,
My heart -- it needs to mend.
Though some may say, "It's just a pet,"
I know I've lost a friend.
You've brought such laughter to my home,
and richness to my days.
A constant friend through joy or loss
with gentle, loving ways.
Companion, friend, and confidante,
A friend I won't forget.
You'll live forever in my heart,
My sweet, forever pet.

God's peace dear lady ... God's peace ...
I'm so grateful for the joy and affection God grants us through our pets. I'm praying for you as you adjust to the absence of one of God's tender blessings in your life. What a beautiful cat!
I'm so sorry for the loss of your cat!! That is such a heartbreaking thing to go through!! I'm sorry.....
Oh dear. So sorry about George. How old was he?
Kim, my very first cat was a black and white whom I dearly loved. I grieved when Scout was lost to me. I'm sorry for your loss of a very obvious pet-friend.
Thank you all for your sympathy and kind words.
This has been a tough day. It has helped to know that others care and understand.
There is no such thing as "just a pet" is there?
Kim, I'm so sorry about George. Sending you a warm hug.
I miss George, too. We loved him,too.
What a beautiful picture of him.
Oh, Kim. There is no such thing as 'just a pet.' I am so sorry for you! My heart is heavy. ((hug))
I'm sorry about George, Kim. We've recently acquired a cat, and I'm surprised at how quickly I've gotten attached to her.
I'm so sorry for your loss!
Kim
OH! Dear Kim!
I am so sad that you lost your beautiful catty. He was a gorgeous creature! I am sending hugs to you. Sigh.
