About Sheba
Sheba became part of our family after i removed her as a pup from someone who had been neglecting
her, she was just a few weeks old. At the time my youngest son was only 5mths old and they soon
became best buddies and to this day my son misses her and often talks about our Sheebs.
You were the perfect dog Sheebs and we treated you like a baby, you'd refuse to eat biscuits unless
they were broken up and hand fed to you. You loved laying on my lap, lifting my hand so i would
smooth your coat, you also loved coming up to bed and sleeping at my feet, sometimes getting under
the duvet. The only bad point about you was the fact you would run off if the front door was left
open and on occasions stay out for days, even in the pouring rain. You hated the fireworks didn't
you, you would cower and shake as soon as they started and the last bonfire night you were with us,
you managed to get out and ran for miles. You turned up at a farm and thankfully the landowner
contacted us and brought you home the next day.
You had a huge tumour on your leg but the vet said due to your age, it wouldn't be advisable to
operate. You became very slow, sleeping for most of the time and the vet had said... Take her home,
her heart is starting to fail! We kept you with us for as long as we could but we couldn't watch you
fight for breath any longer and decided to send you to Rainbow Bridge with your beloved Snuggles on
18th March 2006. It broke all our hearts to say goodbye to you Sheebs but you had suffered enough.
Sleep tight Sheebs and Snuggles, now you're together forever. xxxxxxx
About Snuggles
I chose you from a litter of 6wk old kittens from a lady who was looking for good homes. You were a
happy bundle of joy our Snugs and gave us 16yrs of companionship. You loved to sunbathe in the
garden and it was this habit that was to take your life. Your ears started crusting up and bleeding,
we took you to the vet who said you needed to have your ears amputated to save your life but the
operation would cost £500 and sadly we couldn't afford that. I telephoned many places to try and
get you the operation but no one was interested, not even the P.D.S.A even though i begged them to
help you. I bathed your ears four times a day for several weeks but they were getting worse, they
were now bleeding constantly and i couldn't put you through that any longer. I decided it was time
to send you to Rainbow bridge! On the day i cradled you in my arms and cried into your fur, you just
lay there looking up at me. I carried you into the vets and several people admired you, you were
beautiful. Your name was called and i began to sob, you made no fuss as i stood you on the table,
you seemed to understand what was happening, you didn't even cry out when the vet injected you, you
just looked up at me and fell asleep. I craddled you in my arms for the last time Snugs and gave you
a goodbye kiss.
I'm still calling your name Snugs, instead of Felix, Bumble, or Cuddles because i miss you so very
much.
Rest peacefully with our Sheebs now sweetheart... Together forever! xxxxx

WISHES
Copyright (2006) Kristin Sharer
We wish we could have told you,
in words you understand,
We wanted you to stay with us.
This wasn't what we planned.
We wish somehow to tell you,
how empty we now feel.
A part of us went with you,
a part that time can't heal.
We wish we had you back again,
to fill this empty space.
But one day we'll be together,
in a far, far better place.

♥Now you sit at Heaven's Gate
♥Waggin' your tail, you patiently wait
♥Until the time we meet again
♥When I have reached my journey's end.
♥Now I cried when you left that day
♥You weren't here to lick my tears away
♥Time will heal, my heart will mend
♥Tho’ you are missed...my beloved friend.
♥I have peace in knowing what lays in store
♥When I find myself at Heaven's door
♥My tears of joy shall fall that day
♥And you will lick my tears away.

~ Cat Heaven (by Cynthia Rylant) ~
The way to Cat Heaven is a field of sweet grass
where crickets and butterflies play.
A cat may be late getting to Heaven...
there is so much fun on the way!
But an angel will wait at the yellow front door
wait till a kitty comes home.
And when she arrives he'll give her a kiss and
some milk in a bowl of her own.
There are trees in Cat Heaven trees made just for cats,
trees growing so green and so high.
But no one gets stuck in a tree anymore--
if a cat wants down she will fly!
And oh all the toys kitty toys everywhere,
thousands and thousands go by.
There are buttons and baubles and
small catnip afloat in the sky!
There are angels of course with soft angel laps,
where kitties can purr loud and strong.
The angels will rub kitty’s noses and ears,
and sing them a Cat Heaven song.
And when cats are hungry there is God's kitchen counter
all covered with white kitty dishes,
full of tuna and salmon and mounds of sardines
and wonderful little pink fishes.
The cats in Cat Heaven are so loved and spoiled
God lets them all lie on his bed...
He walks in his garden with a good black book
and a kitty asleep on his head.
Then when a cat needs to she may simply ponder
and watch the blue world deep and wide....
she will watch the old house where she once lived and wandered,
and the people who loved her inside.
All cats love Heaven they know the way there
they know where the angel cats fly.
They will turn past the stars and the moon and the sun.....
to curl up with God in the sky.

♥ Unconditional Love ♥
(by Allison Chambers Coxsey)
A treasure to be cherished,
a gift from God above;
is the beauty of a friendship,
touched by unconditional love.
A love that asks no questions,
believes in all the best;
never doubting, ever trusting,
withstanding any test.
A love that weathers any storm,
and yet that love still stands;
through the very darkest hour,
it still reaches out a hand.
There in that hand the sweetest gift,
that you can give a friend;
a heart that cares, a love that shares,
that will be there till the end.
A treasure to be cherished,
a gift from God above;
is what I share with you my friend,
an unconditional love.

❁ OUR PATH NEVER ENDED ❁
(Author Unknown)
I walk in golden fields now,
my wondrous new place called home.
With flowers blooming everywhere,
on the path of our love I roam.
**********************************
Upon the doorstep of my life,
my journey reached its end.
My new home has an endless glow,
where heavenly rivers flow.
**********************************
With love I gather a sweet bouquet,
of flowers from the fields.
With love to you mommy,
whose joyfulness now yields.
**********************************
I am in a very special place,
where love will just increase.
A home that awaits you mom,
where we all find great peace.
**********************************
Right beyond sweet heaven's gate,
is a home beyond all dreams.
We walk in gardens filled with life
blessed with gentle crystal streams.
**********************************
Keep smiling like you always did,
when I walked into the room.
Joy fills this place where I wait,
Till your life with me resumes.
**********************************
Remembrances of our love you see,
like flowers scent a room.
Within our hearts, in memory,
our precious love shall bloom.

♥ ANOTHER LIT CANDLE ♥
(Author Unknown)
Our prayers are offered, our eyes wet with tears,
so sad when we hear this happening,
seems all of a sudden too many are passing.
We do what we can, but we aren’t the Great Maker.
He lends them to us, and they give us their love,
Its what they do best, it’s their gift from above.
Tonight, when you're grieving and missing her so,
just know you have friends,
some you don’t even know.
Our candles are burning,
to give her some light,
on her final last journey
as she goes home tonight.
Another lit candle to brighten her way,
another lit candle at the end of the day.
Our babies are family and try as we might,
seems nothing we say or do makes it feel alright.
Great Maker in Heaven, all angels and saints,
receive my dear baby, give her gladness and light.
Another lit candle to brighten her way,
another lit candle at the end of the day.
Our candles are burning
to give her some light,
on her final last journey,
as she goes home tonight.
AMEN

Sometimes.
Sometimes if I am very still, I can feel them
Not with my fingers that used to weave their way
through their fur...but with my heart.
Sometimes when I'm quiet, I can see them
Not with my eyes that used to shine
at the sight of their faces ~ But in those
special places nestled deep inside.
Sometimes when I'm high on the mountain,
I can hear them
Not with my ears that captured the happy
sounds they made
But from echoes in my memory.
And sometimes...
the lonely times, I feel a terrible kind of sorrow
Not in my mind that cried out in anguish when they left
But from a pain nurtured deep in my soul.
Sometimes....only sometimes...
that pain can be hard to bear. So I climb high on
the mountain, the cool wind in my hair
And remember how it once was, and feel
this fierce kind of joy.
Knowing that once upon a time for a little while...
I had it all. ~ Sometimes, it is enough.

ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ In Peace Go Home ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ
Alan Pemberton
Through veils of peace may you ascend
To promised planes above
Where comfort shall await you
In those summerlands of love.
Although my grief is deep and raw
Although my pain is great
I know that you are still with me
I know that you will wait.
For in God's time we'll meet again
Of this I am quite sure
I loved you so much on this earth
In absence even more.
♥ I asked God for a flower, He gave me a garden.
♥ I asked God for a tree, He gave me a forest.
♥ I asked God for a river, He gave me an ocean.
♥ I asked God for the world, He gave me you.
♥ My heart is lost to you, always and forever.
♦♥• THE NEW DAWN •♥♦
(Author: Timothy R. Laurence)
In endless fields they leap they fly
Through sunny meadows; mountains high
No more an earthbound care have they
A new dawn breaks not end of day.
We knew them once these creatures fair
A memory now for those who shared
Their lives their hearts their love their home
So saddened now that we're alone.
But soon there comes to us a dream
A passing distant joyful scene
Where now our own pet's loving soul
Beside a friendless creature strolls.
Their new companions tell of when
They walked the earth without a friend
But now in company with our own
They've found a new and better home.
Before we know this dream is gone
We wake again but with this dawn
Our hearts are light for now at last
We know the reason why they passed.
It was for love they'd left our side
To be with those who when they died
Had left this earth afraid alone
Unquite souls who had no home.
Far better then for us to know
To those in need our friends did go
For having shared our love with them
They've left to share it now again.
In distant fields they leap they fly
And shower love on those who died
No more an earthbound care have they
A new dawn breaks not end of day.
Thinking of you. Love Mel. xxx
•♥• My Forever Pet •♥•
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.
(Susanne Taylor)
•♥• It Wouldn't Be Heaven •♥•
I got to the gate of Heaven today, after we said goodbye,
I began to miss you terribly, because I heard you cry.
Suddenly there was an Angel, and she asked me to enter Heaven's gate,
I asked her if I could stay outside for someone who would be late.
I wouldn't make much noise, you see, I wouldn't bark or howl,
I'll only wait here patiently and play with my tennis ball.
The angel said I could stay right here and wait for you to come,
Because Heaven just wouldn't be Heaven if I went in alone.
So I'll wait right here, you take your time, but keep me in your heart,
Because Heaven just wouldn't be Heaven without you to warm my heart.

•♥• In The Rainbow Garden •♥•
Your tears fall
Your heart aches
Your baby has gone away
Gone to heaven to play
The memories remain
Of the happy days
A meow and a purr
As you feel the soft fur
You gave your love
No more could you do
A short life of joy
For your baby and you
Off to heaven
Your angel has gone
But within your heart
The love will live on
Standing in sorrow
And in your mind's eye
Look into heaven
And please do not cry
For there in the Rainbow garden
Stands God, and in his arms
An angel softly purring
It's your baby, safe from harm.
