TO MY DEAR LITTLE SHADOW

THREE YEARS AND SEVEN MONTHS HAS PASSED SINCE I LOST YOU, WHEN YOU DRIFTED OFF TO SLEEP ON MY LAP.

I MISS YOU SO MUCH MY LITTLE ANGEL, I THINK ABOUT YOU EVERY MINUTE, OF EVERY HOUR, OF EVERYDAY. I LONG TO SEE YOUR BEAUTIFUL FACE, TO HOLD YOU IN MY ARMS, TO GAZE INTO YOUR BIG BLIND EYES AND TO FEEL YOU NUZZLE MY FACE.


I CHERISH EVERY MOMENT WE SHARED TOGETHER, DURING THE TWELVE AND A HALF YEARS YOU WERE WITH ME. YOU WERE ALWAYS THERE, CURLED UP IN YOUR CHAIR NEXT TO ME, ASLEEP IN YOUR IGLOO OR SUMMER HOUSE, IN MY ARMS OR IN MY BED CURLED UP SNUGGLY UNDER MY ARM YOUR LITTLE BODY PRESSED INTO MINE. I STILL SEE YOU AT YOUR FOOD BOWL, MUNCHING YOUR CHICKEN, TUNA, COLEY IN BUTTER, OR EATING MY CHEESY WOTSITS. EVERY TOUCH, SOUND AND VISION OF YOU IS ETCHED IN MY MIND FOREVER. YOU GAVE ME SO MUCH LOVE AND AFFECTION AND YOUR GENTLENESS AND BEAUTY ARE IN MY SOUL FOREVER.


I WOULD DO ANYTHING TO HAVE YOU HERE WITH ME AGAIN, TO TALK TO YOU, CUDDLE YOU AND KISS YOU. I LONG TO SEE YOUR LITTLE FACE, TO GROOM YOU AND GIVE YOU YOUR LAXATIVE. I STILL FEEL SO CLOSE TO YOU AND I AM ALWAYS THINKING OF YOU. I WILL LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU FOREVER MY DARLING AND YOU ARE ALWAYS IN MY HEART. FOR MY LITTLE TROGLODITUSMONSTABOBUS.

I HAVE CREATED A PEACEFUL HAVEN FOR YOU, BATHED IN SUNSHINE AT RAINBOWS BRIDGE. THIS IS LIKE YOUR GARDEN AT HOME WHERE WE SPENT SO MANY HAPPY TIMES TOGETHER IN THE WARMTH OF THE SUMMER SUN. I HAVE PUT YOUR LITTLE SUMMER HOUSE AND YOUR LITTLE IGLOO IN THE GARDEN SO YOU CAN SLEEP PEACEFULLY WHENEVER YOU WISH. I HAVE ALSO PUT SOME SUNFLOWERS THERE FOR YOU SO YOU CAN SMELL THEIR SWEET FRAGRANCE AS YOU RELAX IN THE SUNSHINE. I HAVE ALSO LIT A CANDLE FOR YOU SO THAT YOU CAN FEEL ITS WARMTH WHICH IS MY LOVE FOR YOU THAT IS WITH YOU ETERNALLY AND THAT WILL BURN ON IN MY HEART AND SOUL FOREVER. ONE DAY WE WILL BE RE-UNITED WHEN I COME TO JOIN YOU AT RAINBOWS BRIDGE.


I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU AND I AM ETERNALLY BY YOUR SIDE

5th OCTOBER 2008

TO MY DEAR LITTLE SHADOW

MUMS HAS BEEN THINKING OF YOU MY LITTLE SHADOW EVERY MINUTE OF EVERYDAY. MY HEART, MIND, BODY AND SOUL MISS YOU SO MUCH AND I YEARN TO BE WITH YOU AGAIN MY BEAUTIFUL LITTLE DARLING. MUMS IS ALWAYS WITH YOU MY LITTLE BABY SHADOW AND MUMS IS HOLDING YOU, LOVING YOU, KISSING YOU AND PROTECTING YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER. MUMS HAS LEFT YOU ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE TREATS, YOUR CHEESY TRIANGLE. I REMEMBER SO CLEARLY HOW I USED TO PUT THE CHEESE ON MY FINGERS AND YOU WOULD LICK IT OFF, YOUR LITTLE TONGUE PRESSING SO HARD AS YOU LICKED THE VERY LAST PIECE OF CHEESE OFF, YOU ENJOYED IT SO MUCH! MUMS HAS ALSO LEFT YOU YOUR LITTLE HEDGEHOG FRIEND, AS MUMS KNOWS THAT YOU MUST HAVE MET A GROUP OF HEDGEHOGS AND MADE FRIENDS WITH THEM WHEN YOU GOT LOST FOR FIVE DAYS AND FIVE NIGHTS AS YOU HAD TICS AROUND YOUR HEAD AND NECK AREA WHICH MUMS HAD TO REMOVE. MUMS WAS SO DEVASTATED WHEN YOU GOT LOST AND MUMS WAS CRYING EVERYDAY, WONDERING WHERE YOU WERE. MUMS CONTACTED THE ECHO, THE LOCAL RADIO, LOCAL VETS AND TOLD EVERYONE TO LOOK OUT FOR YOU. MUMS ALSO POSTED 400 LEAFLETS INTO THE HOUSES AROUND THE AREA WHERE WE LIVED, AND IT WAS ONE OF THESE LEAFLETS THAT LED TO MUMS FINDING YOU MY DEAR LITTLE SHADOW. MUMS WAS SO OVERWHELMED THAT DAY, WHEN MUMS HEARD YOUR FEINT MEOW IT WAS MUSIC TO MUMS EARS. MUMS LOOKED FOR YOU, BUT COULD NOT AT FIRST SEE WHERE YOU WERE MY LITTLE BABY SHADOW. THEN YOU MEOWED AGAIN WHEN YOU HEARD YOUR MUMS VOICE CALLING TO YOU AND MUMS FOLLOWED THE SOUND. MUMS FOUND YOU CROUCHED BETWEEN TWO GARDEN FENCES IN A GAP ABOUT SIX INCHES WIDE. MUMS RAN INTO THE GARDEN NEXT DOOR TO WHERE MUMS FOUND YOU AND DUG A HOLE WITH HER BARE HANDS UNTIL THERE WAS ENOUGH ROOM TO PUT MUMS HAND UNDERNEATH THE FENCE AND TOUCH YOUR DEAR LITTLE FACE. YOU RECOGNIZED YOUR MUMS SCENT IMMEDIATELY AND STARTED NUZZLING MUMS HAND. EVEN THEN YOU MY LITTLE SHADOW WERE SO NERVOUS AFTER YOUR ORDEAL THAT YOU KEPT PUTTING YOUR HEAD OUT THROUGH THE GAP AND THEN BACK IN AGAIN, EACH TIME PUTTING YOUR HEAD OUT A LITTLE FURTHER UNTIL YOU EMERGED ENOUGH SO THAT MUMS COULD SCOOP YOU UP INTO HER ARMS AND RESCUE YOU BANISHING ALL YOUR FEARS. MUMS WILL NEVER FORGET THAT DAY, AS MUMS CRIED TEARS OF JOY WHEN MUMS FOUND YOU, HER DEAREST LITTLE SHADOW. THIS WAS THE HAPPIEST MOMENT OF MUMS LIFE. YOU WERE STILL LESS THAN A YEAR OLD WHEN YOU WENT THROUGH THIS ORDEAL. MUMS GOT YOU CHECKED OUT AT THE VET AND THIS IS WHEN MUMS FOUND OUT THAT YOU WERE 90% BLIND AND THAT THIS WAS PROBABLY THE REASON YOU HAD GOT LOST IN THE FIRST PLACE. FROM THAT DAY FORWARD FOR THE REST OF OUR WONDERFUL YEARS TOGETHER, MUMS WAS ALWAYS WITH YOU WHEN YOU WENT OUT INTO THE GARDEN AND NEVER LET YOU OUT OF HER SIGHT FOR A SECOND.

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH MY DEAR LITTLE SHADOW AND I REMEMBER ALL THE HAPPY TIMES WE HAD TOGETHER SAT IN OUR LITTLE SECRET GARDEN ENJOYING THE SUMMER SUN. YOU WOULD BASK IN THE SUNSHINE, ENJOYING ALL THE SWEET SCENTS OF THE GARDEN BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE GENTLE SUMMER BREEZES. MUMS WOULD WATCH YOU AS YOU GENTLY LIFTED YOUR HEAD, THE BREEZE BLOWING AT YOUR DEAR LITTLE FACE, YOUR MOUTH SLIGHTLY AGAPE AS YOU SAVOURED ALL THE BEAUTIFUL SCENTS OF SPRING AND SUMMER.

MUMS HAS LEFT YOU A BLUE IRIS AND A BUNCH OF DAFFODILS NEXT TO YOUR HOME AT RAINBOWS BRIDGE, JUST LIKE THE BLUE IRIS AND DAFFODILS WE HAD IN OUR SECRET GARDEN AT HOME. YOU CAN SMELL THEIR BEAUTIFUL SCENTS AND DREAM OF BEING BACK WITH MUMS IN OUR LITTLE SECRET GARDEN TOGETHER. WHETHER YOU ARE AWAKE OR WHEN YOU DREAM MY LITTLE SHADOW, MUMS SOUL WILL BE WITH YOU AND MUMS WILL BE TALKING TO YOU, SINGING DANNY BOY GENTLY INTO YOUR LITTLE EARS, HOLDING YOU IN HER ARMS AND KISSING YOUR DEAR LITTLE HEAD OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

WHEREVER YOU GAZE IN THE BEAUTIFUL FLOWER FILLED MEADOWS OF RAINBOWS BRIDGE YOU WILL SEE MUMS FACE SMILING BACK AT YOU. THIS IS TO REMIND YOU THAT ONE DAY MUMS PHYSICAL BODY WILL BE RE-UNITED WITH YOU FOREVER AT THE PARADISE THAT IS RAINBOWS BRIDGE, NEVER TO BE PARTED AGAIN.

I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY MIND, BODY, HEART AND SOUL MY DEAR BEAUTIFUL LITTLE SHADOW.

YOU WILL BE FOREVER IN MUMS MIND, BODY, HEART AND SOUL XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

I WILL NEVER AGAIN EXPERIENCE A LOVE SO PROFOUND AND SO DEEP AS I DO FOR YOU MY BEAUTIFUL LITTLE SHADOW.
