Yesterday one of my beloved little ratties Pip sadly passed away. She leaves a huge hole in my heart for such a little creature, she brought so much joy to me (as do all my lovely pet companions). I hope she is playing at Rainbow Bridge with Archie and Maisie (previously departed ratties).
Much missed by her sister Vee, and sons Rupert and Teddy-Ed.
One day, I know, we shall all be together again.
Lucy was our little Shih Tzu doggie. She came to us only a year ago, aged 14, from my grandparents who both passed away quickly after one another. Lucy was a very old lady and she had many illnesses when we took her in. She had the softest, most loving nature I had ever known a dog to have; she wouldnt have hurt a fly. She made us laugh many times and melted us with her big brown eyes.
She finally took her last breath in my arms at 06:45 this morning. She had tried to hang on longer than she needed, which was just like the brave little Lucy we came to love so dearly, I held her closely and asked her to let go and go back to her Mum and Dad, my grandparents who where waiting over on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge. She relaxed and drifted away.
I would like to thank Lucy for the year we were privileged enough to spend with her, she brought great love into our household. We will never forget you sweetie.
Love you Lucy, safe journey back home.

Forever in my heart.
Midnights in winter
The glowing fire
Lights up your face in orange and gold
I see your sweet features
Shine through the darkness
Etched in my heart
I will never forget you
Mornings in my memory
Sharing our secrets
We walked until the day had gone
We were bonded by our hearts
Playing for hours
The joy you gave
Lives on and on
I will never forget you
I expected to see you at the door
Waiting for me to come home
On this cold winter morning
But you had already left for Rainbow Bridge
I think again of your sweet face
And your big brown eyes
You will stay with me forever
Beside me every day
I will never forget you, because you live in my heart

My heart goes out to you SomersetAngel, for losing one beloved pet is bad enough to take! but three in such a short space of time, your heart probably feels so heavy right now. I sympathise and send my deepest condolences to you. The love you have for them will carry on and they will know and feel it the other side of Rainbow bridge.
