A month today has passed since I lost you my darling.

Not a day has gone by when I haven't missed you, cried for you, looked for you in you're special places.

You are in my thoughts and will never be forgotten.

God bless you Delphi. Sleep tight.

Daddy xx

They will not go quietly
The cats who shared our lives.
In subtle ways they let us know
Their spirit still survives.

Old habits make us think
We hear a meow at the door.
Or step back when we drop
A tasty morsel on the floor.

Our feet still go around the place
The food bowl used to be.
And, sometimes coming home at night,
We miss them terribly.

And although time may bring new friends
And a new food dish to fill.
That one place in our hearts
Belongs to them….
And always will.

I thought this was a lovely gesture on the UKRCC home page.

Delphi was beautiful, so sorry for your loss.

My heart was breaking Carol, but for the Loss of Delphi not her cremation.

I feel more closure having intiating the cremation myself.

Hope the cremation wasn't too traumatic for you Philip.

Delphi is now well and truly at rest.

I wrote this as you were posting Philip. So glad that it went well and you feel more settled.

Philip · « **Reply #17 on:** February 25, 2011, 21:05:00 PM »

I have her ashes home with me.

Some people may find this a bit odd but the crematorium I use now allow you to initiate the cremation.

So I chose to place Delphi in the cremation chamber myself.

As I did so, The man doing the cremation said "God bless Delphi. Go fly".

I really feel like I was able to say goodbye to her properly somehow. I cant really explain it.

I feel a little more settled right now.

God bless you Delphi my special girl. Love to you always.

My heartfelt thoughts to you and poor Delphi. She had the best that life could offer with you, and you should be proud of the difference you made to her life.

so sorry to read this,
Delphi was a gorgeous girl x x x

Tommorrow she will rejoin the great circle of life and you will see her in the flowers and trees and feel her in the air you breathe. Take her life essence inside you then and keep her safe in your heart till you meet again at the bridge.

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

RIP Delphi. It may have been three years but there was an awful lot of love packed into it.

She was a beautiful girl and lucky to have you to give her such loving care for her final years Philip

Run free at the bridge Delphi where there is no pain.

My beautiful baby.

My lovely Delphi was sent to the bridge today at 3:15pm.

She had recently had a mammary tumour removed, but sadly she didn't really pick up as well as hoped and so I had to make the sad decision today.

Delphi came into my life around 3 years ago as a rescue. She had been dumped in a cattery and rescued but the people who rescued her didn't know how to look after ragdolls and when I met her she was a giant lump of matted fur.

I got her home and spent hours gently trying to de-matt her with consequential scratches all over my hands. Eventually though she ended up with the loveliest of coats. Slowly but surely, I gained her trust.

Delphi fought various illnesses all the time I had her. She was found to be carring the coronovirus soon after being rescued and she suffered a constant runny nose which ranged from a slight clear discharge to a full on blocked nose. She had toiletting issues which may have been intolerable to some.

She ended up getting mammary cancer which was removed and we had 6 months of happiness up until recently when Delphi started to decline.

Delphi I will miss our little routines that we did. the special headbutts. The way you could put Christian, a 7kg adult ragdoll in his place. I will miss you're beautiful eyes. You're soft silky coat. I love you my special darling. I will never forget you.

Daddy xxxx
