This made me think of my beloved cat Kaytie that I recently lost.....to think that she's just right on the other side with all my other passed-on kitties, strong and free and no longer having to try so hard to stay. And that she's right there on the other side, waiting for me. ❤️

I'm so glad that you enjoyed this. I have to admit that this story was not exactly the story I set out to write. It took on a life of its own as the words poured out. ❤️

What a heartwarming story. For me, it was a little dog. Of all the multitude of animals I have rescued and fostered and adopted, this one little fellow stole my heart. And broke it when he died. I know he has not gone very far he’s still with me, and every once in a while, I catch a glimpse out of the corner of my eye, and I know he’s right there waiting for me.

Thank you for your kind words! I'm so glad this story reminded you of your sweet little friend. I truly believe they never *really* leave us ❤️

This was really heart rendering...and having lost so many fur family members and with 3 now over ages 16...

But how it really touched me was I had a 32 min conversation today with my Mom who is almost 98. The dementia is taking her more each month and today was not a good call...but after reading this it made me feel that I am touching her soul, it may be 1/2 way gone but the earthly part is scared and in pain. Thank you.
