Dougal came to live with me about march/april this yr, after living in the Cats Protection shelter at Kirkintilloch. I reserved him on boxing day 2007 the poor wee soul developed cat flu and was ill, then he got conjuctivitous, then mouth ulcers, i was beginning to think i would never get to bring him home.
After about a week he was best friends with my other cat Donald, who had sadly lost his brother Hamish, but Fizzy, another rescue cat, didn't ever really bother with him.
Dougal ate a poisonous plant from my garden in June this yr, he eveentually recovered from that though it was touch and go for quite some time. This time vet was never quite sure why he was so ill he had been on his meds for 2 months and seemed to be improving, but suddenly on christmas night he became quite ill i made calls to emergency vet who eventually agreed to see him. However, while i was driving my baby to the vets he passed away.
Now i am just waiting to organise his private cremation so i can have him home with me, where he belongs. R.I.P. my wee angel. mummy loves you, Donald is missing you so much. xxxx
THE CORNER
There is a little corner
That I visit every day,
No-one knows I go there
Or how long that I stay.
In this little corner
I speak to you alone,
I think what it would be like
To have you here at home.
In the little corner
I hold you really tight,
I cuddle, kiss and squeeze you
You're such a lovely sight.
In my little corner
I tuck you up to sleep,
I sneak another cuddle
I have another weep.
Where is this little corner?
It's where we're never apart
Where I always have you with me;
It's the corner of my heart.
Precious Love
The agony is so great...
and yet I will stand it.
Had I not loved so very much...
I would not hurt so much.
But God knows I would not want to diminish
that precious love...
By one fraction of an ounce.
I will hurt...
And I will be grateful for that hurt
For it bears witness to the depth of my love.
And for that I will be eternally grateful.

Dougal
Though time passes since
Dougal was tragically taken away,
We still think of Dougal,
Each and every day,
and we are bound to still shed
the odd tear,
We are comforted by the fact that
Dougals's spirit is still here,
RIP Dougal..
Each and every day.
For Dougal,xxx.
Lend Me A Kitten ~
I will lend to you for a while
a kitten, God said.
For you to love while she lives,
and mourn when she's dead.
Maybe for twelve or fourteen years,
or maybe two or three
But will you, 'till I call her back,
take care of her for me?
She'll bring her charms to gladden you
and should her stay be brief,
you'll always have her memories
as solace for your grief.
I cannot promise she will stay,
since all from earth return.
But there are lessons taught below
I want this kitten to learn.
I've looked the whole world over
in search of teachers true,
And from the folk that crowds life's land
I have chosen you.
Now will you give her all your love,
nor think the labor vain?
Nor hate me when I come to take
my kitten home again?
And my heart replied,
"My Lord, Thy Will Be Done."
For all the joys this kitten brings,
the risk of grief I'll run.
I'll shelter her with tenderness,
I'll love her while I may
And for the happiness that I've known,
forever grateful stay.
But should you call her back
much sooner than I planned,
I'll brave the bitter grief that comes,
and try to understand.
If by my love I've managed
your wishes to achieve,
in memory of her sweet sweet love,
please help me while I grieve.
When my cherished kitten
departs this world of strife,
Please send yet another needing soul
for me to love all her life.
