Today was a day that we had dreaded & under the guidance from our vets we had to let Bob close his eyes in his life here for the very last time... Bob passed away peacefully at home in his basket at 12 noon... We sat on the floor with Bob & lovingly we cradled his head & gently told him time & time again how much we loved him... Our tears flowing as we did the kindest thing we could do... Gently & peacefully Bob slipped away from this life... We didn't say Good Bye, we said see you later Bob, because when you wake, you will be under Heaven's clear blue sky, able to see & hear & play as you did in your prime... When our time comes, we know Bob will be there to greet us with his characteristic gruff bark & a waggy tail... We love you so much Bob... We all wish in our heart of hearts we could have you back here with us... You have the best spot in the garden called "Bob's Place" where we have laid your up-turned bowl & flowers... Bob you will live on in our hearts & memories... Go sweetly into your new life little fella x x x x x x x x x x x β° β°

My Forever Pet
Mr Bob.
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.
Mr Bob., and Penny.
I think of you guys often, Always with a smile.You were a blessing,TO US ALL! Mr Bob looking in every nook and cranny for who knows what? and gentle Penny with that wonderful nature! Lovely and special Little people.love and miss you loads.

UGLY THE TOMCAT
Everyone in the apartment complex I lived in knew who Ugly was. Ugly was the resident tomcat. Ugly loved three things in this world: fighting, eating garbage, and, shall we say, love.
The combination of these things combined with a life spent outside had their effect on Ugly. To start with, he had only one eye, and where the other should have been, there was a hole. He was also missing his ear on the same side. His left foot appeared to have been badly broken at one time and had healed at an unnatural angle, making him look like he was always turning the corner.
Ugly would have been a dark gray tabby, striped type, except for the sores covering his head, neck, and even his shoulders. Every time someone saw Ugly there was the same reaction. "That's one UGLY cat!!!"
All the children were warned not to touch him, the adults threw rocks at him, hosed him down, squirted him when he tried to come in their homes, or shut his paws in the door when he would not leave. Ugly always had the same reaction.
If you turned the hose on him, he would stand there, getting soaked until you gave up and quit. If you threw things at him, he would curl his lanky body around your feet in forgiveness.
Whenever he spied children, he would come running, meowing frantically and bump his head against their hands, begging for their love. If you ever picked him up he would immediately begin suckling on your shirt, earrings, whatever he could find.
One day Ugly shared his love with the neighbor's dogs. They did not respond kindly, and Ugly was badly mauled. I tried to rush to his aid. By the time I got to where he was laying, it was apparent Ugly's sad life was almost at an end.
As I picked him up and tried to carry him home, I could hear him wheezing and gasping, and could feel him struggling. It must be hurting him terribly, I thought. Then I felt a familiar tugging, sucking sensation on my ear. Ugly, in so much pain, suffering and obviously dying, was trying to suckle my ear. I pulled him closer to me, and he bumped the palm of my hand with his head, then he turned his one golden eye towards me, and I could hear the distinct sound of purring.
Even in the greatest pain, that ugly battled scarred cat was asking only for a little affection, perhaps some compassion. At that moment I thought Ugly was the most beautiful, loving creature I had ever seen. Never once did he try to bite or scratch me, try to get away from me, or struggle in any way. Ugly just looked up at me completely trusting in me to relieve his pain.
Ugly died in my arms before I could get inside, but I sat and held him for a long time afterwards, thinking about how one scarred, deformed little stray could so alter my opinion about what it means to have true pureness of spirit, to love so totally and truly.
Ugly taught me more about giving and compassion than a thousand books, lectures, or talk show specials ever could, and for that I will always be thankful. He had been scarred on the outside, but I was scarred on the inside, and it was time for me to move on and learn to love truly and deeply -- to give my total to those I cared for.
Many people want to be richer, more successful, well liked, and beautiful -- except for me. I will always try to be Ugly.
Mr Bob.
Mr Bob.still sorely missed,"I maybe don't see you,like back in the day, But old fella i can still HEAR you,And that's a warm and welcoming feeling,i know when my time comes?, you will be waiting!,and i will once again see you old son.Till then be off with you to rainbow bridge and take my love with you.
If my parting has left a void, then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, ah yes, these things, I too, will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much, good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all to brief; don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me, God wanted me no
Christmas Wishes.
This is such a special time of year. The longest night of the year, a full moon and eclipse all at the same time. This hasn't happened since the 1800s. The birth of the Son of God or the birth of the Sun God. So many ways to celebrate this time of year.
I remember one time, my daughter told me that she was all grown up and didn't believe in Santa any more. She asked me if I did. I said, "Yes, laura, I do. Santa is more than a man in a red suit with a white beard. The next time we go to the supermarket, looking at people smiling at people they don't even know. See how they look for just the right gift for the person they love. Hear the love in the songs that come with this time of year. That is the Spirit of Christmas and only happens this time of year. Some people see that spirit with a man in a red suit. Some see it going to church and seeing it in Jesus. Some see it when the solstice comes and the days begin to get longer. No matter how you see it, it is the spirit of love."
So for each of you, no matter what this time of year means to you, I wish you love, joy, peace and beauty. I hope you can find the uplifting in your heart to smile at a stranger or watch someone picking out "just the right gift". And most of all, I hope each of you is surrounded by the warmth of love.
Christmas Blessings.
Chris and Helen Lambrianou, and family.
