Bounce has gone to the Bridge

I have just heard the news. I am all alone now, no sweet Bounce to hold my paw.

We met as 15-year olds, and then became Sweet 16s very close together. I was already completely blind when we met, but that was all right with my gentle and sweet Bounce. He led me for walks around the garden and brought me roses, nip valentines, and tea.


I will miss him... and I know how much his family loved him.


I don't care that I can't see... I am going to go to his family and comfort them. Won't you go with me dear friends?


We'll walk together and leave our purrs and prayers. His sisters Lucy and Trixie will need us. And his human family will be honored to receive us.


Thank you ML, for this beautiful graphic.

Oh my darling Auntie Stinkie! I am so sad that your beloved has left you alone and gone to the rainbow bridge....it was his time. These things can not be changed. Please take my old paw and lets go see Bounce's family together. I will be the one to guide you around now if you will have me as your companion on outings. We can stop over here at my cozy cottage for tea before I bring you home tonight. I have a picture of your Bounce you might like to see.
All my love your Miss Peach

Aw Auntie Stinkie, we're so sad with you. We'll go with you fore sure. His family won't care that you can't see, only that you loved Bounce.
Purrrrrrs,
da Mini and the rest of the Hotties

Dr. Tweety, yes, there's more of the liberated ham. Do you want some? Maybe we could take some foods to Bounces family. Oh did I say that? Don't tell anyone I'm a mushy sentimental cat after all. Now I must have a snax.
