Sad News - Taylor the Cat

From the owner:

...I am mourning what seems to be the sudden, unexplanable death of my beloved Tuxedo boy, Taylor. I am so upset as it just happened this morning. Please post this request for prayers... I am feeling horrible and that somehow I failed him. I am open to any thoughts but would love to hear or see something from him. Thanks for caring for the animals.

Please keep her in your prayers.

Anonymous said...: My sincere condolences, prayers, and hugs to you at this very difficult time. I am truly so very sorry about your precious Taylor. Although I cannot have any pets of my very own here where I live, I do have a tux kitty gentleman who visits my gardens every day and awaits a little treat.
Please do not feel that you failed your Taylor in any way - I can tell from your writing, your message, how you loved and cared for him so I am certain that your Taylor knows your love for him.
I also believe that because of your strong bond, Taylor will indeed find a very special way to let you know he will always be very much with you in spirit . . . though he can't be with you here in earthly form they do find special ways to reach us from above - from Heaven. It may not happen right away, but Taylor will do so in such a way that you will have no doubt that it is your Taylor. I have personally experienced this with some other four-legged friends or I would not tell you of this.
Perhaps it will give you some comfort to keep something of Taylor's very close to you, a collar perhaps, or a toy, and do not be afraid to whisper your feelings to Taylor.
May Taylor rest in eternal peace and perpetual light shine upon him, and may the Holy Angels who carried Taylor home to Heaven also be present to you now at this most difficult time.
Please take care and know that many here are and will be thinking of you.; May 10, 2013 at 2:09 PM

Prayer for My Pet

In Your infinite wisdom, Lord God,
when You created the Universe
You blessed us with all living creatures.
We especially thank You for giving us our pets
who are our friends and who bring us so much joy in life.
Their presence very often helps us get through trying times.
Kindly bless my pet.
May my pet continue giving me joy and remind me of Your power.

May we realize that as our pets
trust us to take care of them, so we should trust You to take care of us,
and in taking care of them we share in Your love for all Your creatures.
Enlighten our minds to preserve all endangered species
so that we may continue to appreciate all Your creatures.

Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Prayers for Animals and their Masters

Hear our humble prayer,
O God,
for our friends, the animals, especially for animals who are suffering:
for animals that are over-worked,
under-fed and cruelly treated;
for all wistful creatures in captivity
that beat their wings against bars;
for any that are hunted or lost or deserted
or frightened or hungry;
for all that must be put to death.

We entreat for them all
your mercy and pity,
and for those who deal with them
we ask a heart of compassion
and gentle hands and kindly words.
Make us, ourselves,
to be true friends to animals
and so to share the blessings of the Merciful.

Albert Schweitzer (1875- 1965)
Theologian and Humanitarian

The Rainbow Bridge

There is a bridge connecting Heaven and Earth.
It is called "The Rainbow Bridge" because of its
many colors.
Just this side of the Rainbow Bridge,
there is a land of meadows, hills and
valleys with lush green grass.
When a beloved pet dies, the pet goes to this place. There is always food and water and warm Spring
weather.
Those old and frail animals are young again.
Those who have been maimed are made whole again.
They play all day with each other.
But there is only one thing missing.
They are not with their special person who
loved them on earth.
So, each day, they run and play until the day comes when one suddenly stops playing and looks up.
The nose twitches, the ears are up, the eyes are staring, and this one runs from the group.
You have been seen.
When you and your special friend meet,
you take him or her in your arms and embrace.
Your face is kissed again and again.
You look once more into the eyes of your trusting pet. Then, you cross the Rainbow Bridge together, never again to be separated.
