Rainbow Bridge Memorials

These are our famly members who went on the Rainbow Bridge before Cookie and were there to welcome her.
Once again they are all happy and healthy and joyfully romping in the open fields of Rainbow Bridge waiting for the day when I will come to be with them forever.
Until that day, my heart holds the precious memories of their love.

The Cat's Prayer

Although I am too proud to beg, and may appear to be a very independent
creature, I ask for your loving care and attention. I rely on you for my well being much more than you may realize.

This I promise you, my benefactor, I will not be a burden on you nor will I demand more of you than you care to give.

I will be a quiet, peaceful island of serenity for you to gaze upon, a soft
soothing body to caress, and I shall purr with pleasure to rest your weary
ears.

Since I am a gourmet who appreciates different taste sensations, I pray you will give me a variety of nutritious foods and fresh water daily.

You know dear friend, how important security is to me. Allow me, I pray, a warm sheltered place where I can rest peacefully and feel safe.

If I am wounded in battle or suffering from disease, please tend me gently, and see that I am treated by loving, competent hands.

Please protect me from the inhumane humans who would hurt and torture me for their own amusement. I am accustomed to your gentle touch and am not always suspicious nor swift enough to avoid such malicious acts.

In my later years, when my senses fail me and my infirmities become too great
to bear, allow me the comfort and dignity that I desire for my closing days
and help me gently in my pain or passing.

Hear this prayer, my dear friend, my fate depends on you.

A DOG'S PRAYER

Dear Lord:

Please watch over our humans, they are so weak. They have no claws or
teeth, they can't run fast or fly away, neither can they burrow or build a
nest in which to be safe. They smell bad, do strange things that aren't
altogether intelligent, have no real ability to communicate with us, although
we are able to figure out what they want.

Lord, grant US the ability to watch over our humans, care for them, cheer
them when they are down, make them laugh, smile, and shower them with our
love. We pray that we can bring a little joy into their otherwise mundane
existence.

Lord, please let them know that when we insist on getting attention, it is
so we can check their emotional well being and boost their morale. When we
pester them for different foods, toys, etc., it's so they will learn to see
us in ways they hadn't considered, bringing them closer and back into the
fold... which they are part of but keep forgetting about. They expect us to
know what they want even though sometimes they don't know what we want. Some
of them really try and we know they love us but some of them are so dumb yet
our love for them remains intensely unfaltering.

Lord, when we die, please make sure to send us ahead to where ever our
humans are going to be, so we can pave the way for them, vouch for them and
be there for them when they too die... please allow us to continue proving
the humans are worth the effort. You placed these humans in dominion over
us, but you charged us with the task of caring for them, SHOWING them your
love every day, through us.

God bless these mere mortal humans, they know not that we are their guardian
angels sent in love to task them so that they may grow to be part of your
plan. You and us, God... we'll bring them back into the fold... you and us.

Mala.....a little dog with a big heart...my Mom's sweetheart.
God saw you were getting tired,
And a cure was not to be,
So he put his arms around you
And whispered, "Come to me".

With tearful eyes we watched you,
And saw you pass away.
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard working paws at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He only takes the best.
