My Beloved Miranda Miranda Kitty Alm
Beautiful and Beloved

Miranda was a wonderful kitty who was always under my feet or in my lap for 14 years. Her father Keoni and sister Olivia miss her and wonder where she is. There is a huge empty spot in my life now that is very difficult to deal with. Miranda loved cellophane wrapping, paper clips, rubberbands, and ribbon. When a fly had the audacity to get into the house, she would watch it and chase it, just like the little animated kitty above. And sometimes she would literally climbed the doorjams and slide down then would race away when she couldn't get very far off the ground. A little later I would find her lying on her back in the sun, snoozing, without a care in the world. She gave me lots of kisses and waited at the door for me to get home. Our favorite activity together was reading a book and tummy-rubbing.

I want it to be false that you are gone. It is so unreal. I firmly believe that we will be together again when I get to heaven with you. Try to find my Dad and hang out with him until I get there. Also find Margaret and my Grandma. They love kitties and will love you too, I'm sure. We'll meet at the Rainbow Bridge then all of us will be together again. In the meantime, your job is to play and sleep and be warm and wait for us. No more hairballs or baths or combs. I know you're happy about that. My arms are empty without you. You are always in my heart. I will think of you every single day for all of my life. Miranda honey, my darling little girl, I miss you so very much. I love you baby.

Keoni My Dear Sweet Love Keoni Kitty Alm
My Beautiful Boy

Keoni My Love - my dearest beautiful boy - - I couldn't bear to write anything before now and can hardly do so even yet. I miss you so very very much. I know you are happy and comfortable now and that is a comfort to me. I'm glad you didn't suffer long but am so sorry you suffered at all. I keep the curtains parted just like you like them and your slant board is here too. All you kids' toys are in the basket and your eating dishes haven't moved. Every morning I remember your whiskers tickling me awake. And I remember your tiny little meow. It was such a tiny little sound for such a big boy. Your daughter Miranda had a really loud and insistent meow. Yours was so quiet I could hardly hear it. Olivia never meowed much at all unless it was in protest against getting into her carry-case.

You were always there for me through all my troubles. You were the one constant in my life. You are the one who would give me big hugs and little kitty-kisses and make me smile again. I lived with you longer than with any other being in this world. It is hard living alone without you and without the girls. I miss my little family so much. I knew the day would come when you would go to Rainbow Bridge and I'm grateful you stayed with me so long but when that day did arrive I just became numb. Words don't even start to convey the depth of my sadness.

Keoni, Love, I miss you with everything that I am and just want you back. Although I would want that only if you could be healthy and comfortable. Sweet love, I'll come to you someday, and to the girls. Then we'll all be together again. Until then, stay together, play and have fun. You will never be gone from my heart and soul. Watch for me. I love you.

Sweet and Beloved

Dear Sweet Livie - At last you get your rest. I'm so happy that you're not suffering anymore but oh how I miss you. It was a terrible ordeal but you were a real trooper. I'll miss your races up and down the hallway and tummy rubbing at night just before sleep. You were always so quiet and kept to yourself - well most of the time - and so afraid of everything. I tried to help you be happy and comfortable and I loved you very much. Now there will be no more surgeries or medecines or treatments. Now you can breathe easily and there's nothing to be afraid of. Did Miranda greet you at the Rainbow Bridge? Are you having fun together? I miss you, my sweet baby girl, and will remember you always. I will think of you every day and hold you in my heart for all my life. Daddy isn't sure why you aren't here tonight but I give him extra hugs and that helps. Keoni and I will remember you and Sister and miss you. We'll all be together again one day. Now just enjoy your new good health, have fun playing with Miranda, and get acquainted with the rest of our family there. They'll love you too.

Farewell, my sweet little love. Until we meet again, remember always how much I love you and miss you. - All my love,


Mom
