Well kid. It's a year. I miss you and it still hurts but that's the way of these things ain't it angel.

Boris still does his best to remind me of you but it's not needed sweetheart and the more he grows up, the less like you he is which is also the way of things but thanks for easing the pain by sending him here.

I still adore you and always will ........... you beautiful boy

Freddie knows you won't ever forget him - but he did send Boris "jus' ter maek shoor"

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #51 on:** November 03, 2011, 15:00:36 PM »

Rosella.

Freddie is watching over you and educating Boris so he knows all the right............and wrong things to do

sheilarose · « **Reply #50 on:** November 03, 2011, 13:09:46 PM »

Rosella.

Fred sent you Boris to be his stand-in so you would have someone to eat your cereal and pee on your newspaper and lie on your neck.

Fred did what he could to make it right for you because you did eveything right for him.

maddercow · « **Reply #49 on:** November 03, 2011, 12:59:57 PM »

I am sorry Rosella, is so sad.

You will never forget him and he will never forget you and you had lively times together.

A wonderful tribute to a wonderful boy I remember when you adpted him Rosella, you were so excited and so impatient! He was a lucky boy to have you and vice versa

RIP Fred, safe and sound at the Bridge by now xx

The Greatest Gift

I always knew this time would come,
From the very instant our eyes first met.
How I loved you then! How I love you now!
I made a promise then, and I will keep that promise now...
You will not suffer from a pain that will not heal;
You will not know the loss of a life remembered, now gone.

It is for me alone to make this decision,
The price for the bright joy and pure laughter
You brought me during the time we shared.
I am the only one who can decide when it is time.
When my hope dies, and my fear rides high,
Just when I need you most, I must let you go.

It is for you alone to tell me when you are ready
For without your guidance, I will not know
When to lay my grief, my guilt, my anger
My sorrow and my selfish heart aside
And give you this last gift, this greatest gift.
Your eyes will speak to mine, and I will know.

The pain of this moment is excruciating.
Tears stream down my face in a river of sorrow.
And my heart drowns in a pool of grief.
For you have spoken and I have listened,
And unlike other decisions I have made
This one brings no relief...no comfort...no peace.

For if there´s one thing you´ve taught me,
If there´s only one thing I´ve learned...
Unconditional love has a condition after all,
I must be willing to let you go, when you speak to me
I must be willing to help you go, if you cannot go alone.
And I must accept my pain so you can be free of yours.

Go easily now, go quickly now,
Do not linger here, it is time for you to leave.
Go find your strength, go find your youth.
Go find the ones who've gone before you.
You are free to leave me now, free to let your spirit soar
Rest easy now, your pain will soon be gone.

I pray I will find comfort in my memories...
In the dark and lonely days ahead.
I cannot say I will not miss you, I cannot say I will not cry.
For only my tears can heal my broken heart.
But, I promise you this; as long as I live,
You will live, alive in my mind, forever in my heart.

So I give you this last gift, all I have left to give,
And this will be my greatest gift...sending you away.
It is the measure of my unconditional love...
For only the greatest love can say,
"Good-bye, go find the bridge, we'll meet again,
Loving you has been the greatest gift of all."

Forever and Always... Until Rainbow bridge....

I havn't seen that befoe and it is a comfort.

Thank you

Oh Rosella - so sorry about Freddie

What a special boy he was!

I am so very sorry to hear of your loss.
You were truly lucky to find your twin heart cat and spend some time together. Twin hearts are never parted so take him into yours now.
Play well at the bridge Fred x

Kirst · « **Reply #36 on:** July 27, 2011, 09:15:15 AM »

I'm so very sorry Rosella - he was sooooooooooo hadsome and obviously adored.

Rosella moggy · « **Reply #35 on:** July 27, 2011, 08:12:41 AM »

Thank you so much everyone. Weird how it feels he left us ages ago and it is only the beginning of day 3 without him.

I'm so very very grateful that he went so peacefully as I am able to look at pics and videos of me lad and get so much comfort from that. My desktop pic and mousemat at the office are both close ups of me boy and have a Freddie mug at the other office I am going to today. It all helps.

So very sorry to hear this Rosella. That was a lovely tribute. I always had a soft spot for your Freddie.

You must be devastated

RIP your beautiful boy

Tigerlily (Allison) · « **Reply #31 on:** July 26, 2011, 12:24:39 PM »

Rosella, my heart is breaking for you

This isn't really a cat poem but still the sentiment is the same I think:

To Those I Love
by Isla Paschal Richardson

If I should ever leave you,
Whom I love
To go along the silent way. . .
Grieve not.
Nor speak of me with tears.
But laugh and talk of me
As if I were beside you there.

(I'd come. . .I'd come,
Could I but find a way!
But would not tears and
And grief be barriers?)

And when you hear a song
Or see a bird I loved,
Please do not let the thought of me
Be sad. . .for I am loving you
Just as I always have. . .

You were so good to me!
There are so many things
I wanted still to do. . .
So many things I wanted to say
to you. . . Remember that
I did not fear. . . It was
Just leaving you
That was so hard to face.

We cannot see beyond. . .
But this I know:
I loved you so. . .
'twas heaven here with you!

Sending you lots of hugs Rosella.

RIP Freddie
