I'm sorry, Will. But Winnie had a good loving home and hoomins, and
that makes him a fortunate cat. And I'm sure a cat who will be sorely
missed.

Have a gentle trip over the bridge, Winnie.

Will I am so sorry

Sorry is such an empty word when you are feeling such sorrow.  To be loved
and loving are about all a person or cat can ask for in this life.  Winnie
was both and so were the rest of your household.

I'm so very sorry, Will. I know it hurts horribly to lose one of furred
ones, but at least he didn't suffer. We're sending purrs for you, Maggie
May, Missy, Sunrise, Bear, and Micki.

I'm so sorry to hear this, Will.  Lighting a candle for Winnie and
sending comfort and good-memories purrs your way.

Dearest Will,
I'm SO sorry to hear about Winnie.  It sounds like just the way our beloved
Mutt went last Dec 9, just took a nap and woke up at RB.  Mutt was 19,
and in ill health, and he too was surrounded by family and friends.
Will you 'please' e-mail me your snail mail address so I can send you a
'sympathy' Cat card?  I'm so sorry for your loss, and how it's affecting you
and your family.

I so very sorry for your loss. I am glad that he didn't suffer; that is
something to be thankful for, at least.

I sounds like he lived a very full life, with lots of furry buddies, and
humans who loved him.

I have lit a candle in my very special candle holder in the shape of a
sleeping cat, for Winnie.

Purrs for Winnie, and those who grieve for him.

I'm so sorry.

I like to think by now they are already playing together at the bridge.

 We're so sorry to hear of your loss of a wonderful little guy.  While it
is a devastating time for you, take heart that he went peacefully and
among those he loved.  Bless you all; you're in our thoughts during
this dreadful time.

I am so sorry for your loss.

Oh, Will, that is heartbreaking! So sudden. I'm glad he was not in pain,
though, and with the ones he loved. Purrs and condolences for your loss.

I am so sorry, Lee

I'm so sorry Will.  Winnie was a good friend for you and yours.  At least he
had his family with him.

Will, I'm so sorry for your loss.  Purrs are heading your way to help ease
the pain of your broken heart, and a candle will be lit tonight to help
Winnie find his way to the Bridge.

I'm so very sorry for your loss.

Our condolences to you and your family on Winnie's passing.

I am so sorry, Will. Seems like so many 'kids' are going to the Bridge
again this year.

I found this poem on another list, and it seemed appropriate to post.

NOTE FROM THE BRIDGE

To my dearest family,
some things I'd like to say.
But first of all, to let you know,
that I arrived okay.

I'm writing this from the Bridge.
Here I dwell with God above.
Here there's no more tears of sadness.
Here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy
just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I am with you
every morning, noon and night.

That day I had to leave you
when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me
and He said, "I welcome you.

It's good to have you back again,
you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family,
They'll be here later on."

God gave me a list of things,
that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list,
was to watch and care for you.

And when you lie in bed at night
the day's chores put to flight,
God and I are closest to you...
in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth,
and all those loving years,
because you are only human,
they are bound to bring you tears.

But do not be afraid to cry,
it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers,
unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you
all that God has planned.
If I were to tell you,
you wouldn't understand.

But one thing is for certain,
though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now,
than I ever was before.

There are rocky roads ahead of you
and many hills to climb;
But together we can do it
by taking one day at a time.

It was always my philosophy
and I'd like it for you too;
That as you give unto the world,
the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody
who's in sorrow and pain;
Then you can say to God at night...
"My day was not in vain."

And now I am contented...
that my life was worthwhile.
Knowing as I passed along
I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody
who is sad and feeling low;
Just lend a hand to pick him up,
as on your way you go.

When you're walking down the street
with me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps
only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go...
from that body to be free.
Remember you're not going...
you're coming here to me.
