BrokenZilla

Yesterday brought the beginning, tomorrow brings the end, and somewhere in the middle we became the best of friends. - Author Unknown

My heart is breaking into a million pieces right now. My sweet beloved cat Tippy, who my husband gave to me as a tiny kitten he'd rescued back in 2000 and has slept in my arms every night since, is dying. God, just typing the last word of that sentence destroyed me.  I'm a total wreck now that the kids have gone to bed and I am free to freaking lose it. I don't know how bad I'll be when she goes, it could be anytime now, she has been very tired for a few days. So this little miserable post is just an explanation in advance if I drop off for a bit but who knows, maybe I'll be online anyway trying to run away from my sad thoughts.

If you'd like to cry with me, click HERE to listen to a portion of a song called the Cat Lullaby.

Here's James Taylor with You Can Close Your Eyes:


Lyrics:

Well the sun is surely sinking down, but the moon is slowly rising.
So this old world must still be spinning round and I still love you.

So close your eyes, you can close your eyes, it's all right.
I don't know no love songs and I can't sing the blues anymore.
But I can sing this song and you can sing this song when I'm gone.

It won't be long before another day, we gonna have a good time.
And no one's gonna take that time away. You can stay as long as you like.

So close your eyes, you can close your eyes, it's all right.
I don't know no love songs and I can't sing the blues anymore.
But I can sing this song and you can sing this song when I'm gone.

I got the above from a page for the grieving at Squidoo, HERE.

Nothing will make me feel better unless if a miracle were to come and heal my Tippy, but if you want to do something nice, take in a stray, and/or donate time or money to your local shelter.

Love your pets, because they deserve it and also because even when your whole world falls to crap, they always still love you.


Update: She passed away today, it was relatively peaceful. I am sad, but OK. Thank you to everyone who has offered kind words, thoughts and prayers.
