PAWPRINTS

In Loving Memory of Digger, Buzz, Amy & Percy


They were all very old and slept all day

Too weak and frail to enjoy their usual play

All they could see was a hazy view

But still with their eyes said "I Love You"

We gave them lots of love, good food and a favourite chair

We look now with heartbreak as we no longer see them there.


The bond we shared will always be

The dreaded day came when their eyes said "If you really do love me"
We knew then what we must do and we said "Yes we really do love you"

Their baskets and blankets went to our vets, accompanied by our beloved pets

We stroked them lovingly as they gave a peaceful purr

Everything through our tears just became a blur
Our vet helped them peacefully to reach the end
This was the last compassionate thing we could do for them because they were

Our beloved friends

Now at peace they will suffer no more
We take them home and gently touch their paw
Wrapped in their blankets we make a little grave
And thank them all for the unconditional love they gave.
