ANIMALS MOURN ONE-EYE

FROM THE PAST COUPLE OF MY BLOGS YOU WILL NOTICE THE PASSING OF OUR ONE-EYED FERAL CAT, ONE -EYE. I DONT MEAN TO DRONE ON AND ON, BUT I THINK THAT THE KIDS HAVE ALSO SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO SAY AND SO THIS IS IT, THE FINAL FAREWELL.I REALLY THOUGHT THAT HE WAS GOING TO MAKE IT AS I BELIEVE MY LITTLE FAMILY OF PETS DID ALSO, AND AFTER 8 MONTHS OF RALLYING AND GAINING STRENGTH, HE STILL DID SUCUMB TO THOSE INJURIES AFTER ALL. IT HAS BEEN 5 DAYS NOW AND I HAVE WITNESSED SOME VERY SAD CATS AND A LITTLE FORLORN DOG. TODAY IT SEEMS THOUGH THAT THINGS ARE SOMEHOW GETTING BACK TO NORMAL AND A LITTLE CHEERIER AROUND HERE. I EXPLAINED IN GREAT DETAIL TO THEM ALL HOW I FELT THAT OUR LITTLE ONE- EYE HAD MOVED ON, THAT HE WAS IN A BETTER PLACE AWAY FROM ALL THE TERRIBLE PAIN THAT HE HAD TO ENDURE ON THIS PLANET, AND THAT WE WERE ALL JUST A LITTLE BETTER FOR HAVING HIM TOUCH OUR LIVES.

I REALIZE THAT TO SOME OF YOU THIS WILL SIMPLY SOUND CRAZY OR AT THE LEAST ECCENTRIC. HOWEVER, WE FEEL THAT MAYBE BY SHARING WITH YOU ALL SOME OF OUR EXPERIENCE, STRENGTH, AND HOPE, THAT IT JUST MIGHT GIVE TO YOU ALSO SOME HOPE AND STRENGTH. I DID NOT KNOW THAT ANIMALS WOULD TRULY GRIEVE WITH THE WHOLE PROCESS THING BUT THIS WEEK I WAS PROVEN QUITE WRONG.
