Ack! Not at all what I expected.. WHAT A STORY!!! That was a real heart grabber! You are a great story teller!

This is a GREAT story - because the ending can mean so many things...

Did Josh kitty go to the Rainbow Bridge and now is guiding Lisa there, having sought her out for her kindness?

Now that I type it, it sounds stupidly obvious...

But what a love story. Imagine our heart babies coming to take us to the Bridge and feed us!

And the bartender's feeding of Lisa reminded me of someone putting extra out for a dear stray who comes out when it's quiet, and is looking a little too thin...

WOW. WOW. WOW!

Columbine, look up creaturesall magazine. It is published here in Alberta, and has quite a circulation. I don't know if they pay for stories or not, but they LOVE them. I would love people to read this!

Thank you! Catty1, creaturesall seems to be "between websites" at the moment, but I did find this page with the publisher's addy, so I sent it!

Love, Columbine

Wow.....the end came as a surprise but after thinking it over it all made sense. That's just so great, I'm sure it would get published, people love stories like that, at least animal people like us. You're really good at that, had to run for kleenex when the meaning sank in.

What a great story!

And . . . did you know, there is a line of young adult religious books in which Joshua is the returned Christ? So that ran through my mind when I read, "Let's go to my Dad's house," . . . my Father's house.
