My Little man Gizmo

by Emma McGrath.........................................

On the morning of 7th May 2009 I awoke to find my beautiful man struggling to breath,Silly cat I said have you had more plastic.(He always chewed plastic wherever he could find it). So I phoned the vet and rushed him straight down and they took him away, Me thinking that they would come back out saying that they had dislodged the plastic how wrong was I they came out with the look, Everyone who has seen that look of there is nothing we can do will know at that point my whold world came crashing down. He was my first born they could not take him away from me just like that could they?. So they explained that his heart was failing to me he still looked like the same old Giz as when he was a baby, Oh how he made us laugh. Let me tell you a little bit about him we got him at 8 weeks his mum was a ferral cat and oh Gizmo did take after her we got him home and he ran up the curtains in every room ran up my mums legs. She did not come back to my house for a while. There was one day I was playing with him and his ears went back and that was when I realised I took the game to far Gizmo ran off and about an hour later I was sitting there watching tv when all of a sudden he ran up and smacked me across the back of the head and ran off well as I looked over the side of the sofa he jumped up the other side and smacked me again cheeky little man. you know how running your hands under the duvet cover so they chase you well that was fun intil 4 in the morning and you jump out if bed because Gizmo had put his claws in the bottoms of your feet oh how it hurt he was so funny and was like that until the last day so full of life he really did love life and it was so sad on that day when I had to give him that final kiss goodbye I can honestly sat that was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do in the 31 years of my life so far. His Brother Tigger really misses his big brother he pines for him day and night.I think he misses Gizmo grabbing him and kicking him in the head don't you just love it when cats play fight. Well Gizmo this is a little story of how much you meant to me and how you have left a huge hole in your life. I get you back this week from the crematoriam and hope and pray everyday that were ever you are you are being given the same love that I gave you everyday of the 14 years I was so lucky to have you. Gizmo mummy never wanted to say goodbye to you and thanks you for that special kiss you gave me just before you passed and what I said to you before you closed your eyes for the last time still stands babes I love you more today than I did yesterday but not as much as tomorrow and this is not goodbye as I will be with you again one day and know that the love will always be strong. To everyone who has lost a pet my love and sympathy goes out to you but always remember that you gave them a great life and they gave you just as much remember the good times as this put a big smile on your face and know that one day your paths will meet again and the love will remain.
