Hattie was with us for 16 glorious years. She was more than a pet - she was a friend. It didn't matter how we felt , she was always there for us. Morning and night talking in her own way , and believe me she talked.
Hattie always wanted to be with somebody but we didnt mind. It was an honour to have you for 16 years hattie - Never forgotten
They will not go quietly,
the cats who've shared our lives.
In subtle ways they let us know
their spirit still survive.
Old habits still make us think
we hear a meow at the door.
Or step back when we drop
a tasty morsel on the floor.
Our feet still go around the place
the food dish used to be,
And, sometimes, coming home at night,
we miss them terribly.
And although time may bring new friends
and a new food dish to fill,
That one place in our hearts
belongs to them....
and always will.
