With overwhelming grief , Tom and I had to help our precious Shaman move into our hearts where he will remain forever. No wings - just a warm and safe home for his soul to be loved and cherished until we all cross the bridge together.
The vet said that Shaman's heart was larger than a cat's, and it's amazing that Shaman lasted as long as he did wih a good quality of life. Shaman was outrageously strong - we had no clue he had any problems until he started coughing in september. His final months were happy ones filled with lots of love and play time. This past week, he started coughing again, and he it was clear that he was rapidly declining. He did not suffer, but it was definitely his time.
Shaman was the sweetest boy - Both Tom and ill miss hiim terribly. We could never have asked any more from anyone in our lives - animal or human.
With much sadness,
jennifer & tom Tomichi, Kacina, and Tonto

Jennifer, words seem rather useless. I have lit a candle in his honour, to guide his paws. I can see that such a wee one will be a "greeter" and "guide" to other little ones who walk this way. His strength and courage earned him his star which shines brightly in tonights sky. I can only imagine the courage it took to say goodbye to this wee one, to allow him to go on and continue his journey. I will light a candle for you too...for the bravery and strength you showed him and may it ease your grief and temper your anger.
Goodbye sweet Shaman....you are going to be missed but you will forever walk the paths of sweet memories
ciao

I am so sorry, Jennifer. That boy Shaman has so much he's thanking you for right now. What a wonderful furmom you are, and you made the last, most selfless decision for him when he needed it. That is love, and sometimes love hurts us the most. Dook in peace beautiful boy, you will definitely be missed

thank you all for the kind words and warm thoughts. I do appreciate the support.
Those of you who have know me longer term on the forum know that I avoid the rainbow bridge section of the forum because I know i will be posting here as I have for Shaman.
The sense of loss with losing a pet runs through the core of one's heart and soul. While time does help to heal the pain, one this remains the sme - losing a pet NEVER gets easier.
