Our heartbreak ....

I cant write a lot just now. Our sweet darling gentle boy left us a short while ago to go across the rainbow bridge. I will write more when I can see through the tears.
We will miss our boy more than  we can say.

I am so, so sorry for your loss. I think GJ stayed with you as long as he could here on Earth, but just like your Mum, he will always be around you and in you -- in your heart and your mind, as well as in spirit.

GJ is an icon of the Cat Blogosphere, and will forever be a star in our universe.

We love you, GJ! Always.

We just do not have the words at this time to adequately convey the depth of our sorrow. GJ couldn't have been blessed with more loving parents. You tended to his every need with the utmost of love and care. He knew that he was cherished. He hasn't left you, he will forever be with you watching and protecting. He will forever be in our hearts. We know there are some delectable prawns that he will furever feast on. We send you love and prayers for strength and comfort in this most difficult time.

Random Felines said...

we are so very sorry.... safe journey over the Bridge GJ. purrs to you.....

Teri and her Stylish Adventure Cats said...

And God asked the feline spirit
Are you ready to come home?
Oh, yes, quite so, replied the precious soul
And, as a cat, you know I am most able
To decide anything for myself.

Are you coming then? asked God.
Soon, replied the whiskered angel
But I must come slowly
For my human friends are troubled
For you see, they need me, quite certainly.

But don't they understand? asked God
That you'll never leave them?
That your souls are intertwined. For all eternity?
That nothing is created or destroyed?
It just is....forever and ever and ever.

Eventually they will understand,
Replied the glorious cat
For I will whisper into their hearts
That I am always with them
I just am....forever and ever and ever.

Life with Ragdolls said...

So sorry about GJ!!

((((HUGS)))

If tears could build:
If tears could build a stairway, and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
No farewell words were spoken, no time to say goodbye. You were gone before I knew it, and only god knows why.
My heart still aches in sadness, and secret tears still flow. What it means to lose you no one will ever know.
But now I know you want me, to grieve for you no more; to remember all the happy times, life still has much in store.
Since you'll never be forgotten, I pledge to you today: a hollowed place within my heart is where you'll ALWAYS stay.

Kari said...

Our love and prayers are with you in this time of unspeakable grief. We loved, and will always love, Jasper as if he were our own. Your hearts
must be breaking. We cannot
imagine a world without Jasper in it.
Jasper went to be with his Gran. He
felt he could lay his burden down
and find peace and comfort, freedom
from pain and woe. Although we can
never accept the tragedy of his
loss, we find comfort knowing that he
crossed in the loving arms of his
Gran.
All of our love, ALWAYS.

Dear Carol & Barrie,

My heart sincerely cries at the physical loss of your beloved, Ginger Jasper. There are truly no words that I can share that would ever diminish the pain of this loss, as our cats ARE the LOVES of our LIVES.

I do believe though, that we WILL reunite with our fur-babies when our souls also move on. May you take comfort in the memories shared with this most loving boy. You gave to him more than his dear self could ever have imagined receiving when simply a small mite of a kitten.

Heart embrace to you both,

CATherine Hamel
