As I sit here and read your story may eyes well up and tears flow freely. I know only too well the heartache that comes with making that hard decision. In Dec 2005 I gave up my 18-yr old Speckles to the Rainbow Bridge where she is now happy and healthy and waiting to meet up with me again. The vet came to my home and she took her last breath in my arms as I sat on the couch. Specks was wrapped in her favourite blanket and yes, I spoke to her too.

I have no doubt that Lion is not alone, in fact I believe that he's made lots of the friends at the Rainbow Bridge and is part of the welcoming committee. I also believe that while you are sleeping, he comes to you and softly purrs in your ear just to let you know that he is alright.

Lion has not left you. His spirit surrounds you as you try to get past this difficult time. We will also help you. We've been there. We've also felt so alone. We've cried buckets.......and we all feel your pain.

RIP sweet Fitzgerald and watch over your Meowmie.
