Subject: My Buster

My best friend of 13 years passed away in my arms Tuesday night. My wonderful cat, Buster, had a heart attack completely unexpectedly. When I heard him cry out, I ran downstairs and scooped him up in my arms and ran screaming for a neighbor to help me. Even though the emergency vet is 3 minutes away, it was too late. I even tried cpr in the car, but as a mommy can tell, he was gone.

How can I bear this grief? This is like nothing I've ever experienced. Buster saw me raise a family, go through a divorce, see my children leave home and for the last 6 years, he had my undivided spoiling and he was the light of my life. I would always come right home from work so he could have company, I'd leave the tv on for him, I'd even sleep in an uncomfortable position so I wouldn't disturb his sleep! He loved to torment our other cat Kiki and is now with her (I'm sure she's not happy about that!)

Buster loved to lay with me as I read in bed, was very good about waking me at 6 a.m. every morning (no such thing as a weekend) for his breakfast and I could tell he loved me as much as I loved him. He knew he was a very important part of my life.

Buster, how grateful I am that you chose to spend your time on earth with me. I look forward to the day when I will see you at the Rainbow Bridge. I will love you always --- mommy
