at 8:30 tonight, we let our gunnie go.
greg and chris were by our side.
already, he is buried outside the kitchen window, below his favorite window sill.
i held him as he went.
i will have more to say tomorrow.
for now, goodnight.
*sighs* i have been there. truly one of the hardest and gut wrenchingest decisions and moments ever. my heart, hugs, and prayers are with you. goodnight sweet gunnie. may the angels carry you gently home.
Posted by: Jill at July 15, 2007 11:40 PMHolding our cat Buna as he went was one of the hardest and most painful things that has ever happened in my life. I feel so deeply for both of you, and I feel so privileged to have met Gunnie, stroked him and experienced what was so very special about his tiny, fragile life.
love you both loads,
Sxx
