Gypsy was a rescue cat, we got her in the year 1997 we were told she was 2 years old but I'm not sure if she was a little older then that. First memory I have of her was how she often hid under the bed and I had to always try and encourage her to come out. Not long after she soon settled down and was following me everywhere. She was forever chatting away, and whenever I was sad she found me and stayed with me until I felt better again. She had a beautiful soul. Gypsy was forever purring away, and loved attention. She was there through hard parts of my life and I can't even begin to expess how having her in my life was the best thing. I miss her big yellowish-green eyes, her voice, the way she was almost like my shadow and how excited she got when tuna was for dinner! Sadly Gypsy became very ill with Cat flu - she appeared to be getting better at first but then got alot worse. Mum decided without telling me, she would put her to sleep. I wanted to be there more then anything for Gypsy as she was mine, my little angel - that really hurt me. The only comfort I have now is I am sure my grandad is looking after her, that she isn't in any pain and I will see her again. Love you so much little one Xxxxx
I wrote a poem dedicated to Gypsy the day after she walked over the rainbow bridge into a world of sweet dreams....
Sweet Dreams My Precious One
Rest your little head my dear,
Shut those big green eyes,
For when you close your eyes sweet one,
A paradise will shine.
Never say goodbye to me,
Instead lets say goodnight,
A lifetime of sweet dreams for you,
No feelings of pain or fright.
A feeling of pure happiness,
A world of smiles and love,
And when I'm feeling blue sweet one,
Please look down on me from above.
Your touch and voice will always be missed,
The way you made me smile,
How you often did such crazy things,
That made me laugh for awhile.
Sleep a little longer now,
Shhh! Don't be afraid,
Close those beautiful eyes angel,
And rest your little head.
Words can't even begin to express how much you meant to me Gypsy and still do. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for coming into my life. You really are my little angel now Xx

When Tomorrow Starts without me.
And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise,
And find your eyes,
All filled with tears for me,
I wish so much you wouldn't cry,
The way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
As much as love you,
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too.
So when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand.
She said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave,
All those I dearly love.
And as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye,
For all my life I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.
I thought for all the yesterdays,
The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
And all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
If only for a while,
I'd say goodbye and kiss you,
And maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized,
That this coould never be,
For emptiness and memories,
Would take the place of me.
But as walked through heavens gates,
I felt so much at home,
When god looked down and smiled on me,
From his great golden throne.
He said this is eternity,
And all I've promised you.
Today your life on earth is through,
And here life starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
But that this day will always last,
As each way is the same way,
There's no longing for the past.
You have been so faithfull,
So trusting and so true,
Though there were times you did some things,
You knew you shouldn't do.
But now you are forgiven,
And know at last your'e free,
So won't yopu come and take my hand,
And share my life with me.
So when tomorrow sstarts without me,
Don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right here in your heart.......
4 years today
I can't believe its been four years since you entered your paradise, I still miss you a great deal and feel so awful I wasn't there to hold you in my arms as you took your final breath. You are and always will be my beautiful angel. The brightest star of the sky is you, you mean ever so much to me and always will. Sometimes I feel your presence, this comforts me a great deal. I know grandad is looking after you for me. Love you both very much
Big kisses to you gyps love you more as each day passes xxxxxxxxx
Thank you xx
I feel truly touched by everyone who has lit a candle, added a photo and left a beautiful tribute on Gypsy's page, thank you all so very much - its so lovely to feel that others are there for you, that they are thinking of you and your angel.
I feel so incredibly lucky to have had her come into my life, I can't wait to see her again and just tell her how much I have missed her and how I always loved her Xx thank you all again xX

Ask My Mum How She Is...
My Mum, she tells a lot of lies,
She never did before.
But from now until she dies,
She'll tell a whole lot more.
Ask my Mum how she is
And because she can't explain,
She will tell a little lie
Because she can't describe the pain.
Ask my Mum how she is,
She'll say "I'm alright."
If that's the truth, then tell me,
why does she cry each night ?
Ask my Mum how she is,
She seems to cope so well.
She didn't have a choice you see,
Nor the strength to yell.
Ask my Mum how she is,
"I'm fine, I'm well, I'm coping."
For God's sake Mum, just tell the truth,
Just say your heart is broken.
She'll love me all her life,
I loved her all of mine.
But if you ask her how she is,
She'll lie and say she's fine.
I am Here in Heaven.
I cannot hug her from here.
If she lies to you don't listen,
Hug her and hold her near.
On the day we meet again,
We'll smile and I'll be bold.
I'll say, "You're lucky to get in here, Mum,
With all the lies you told!"
Beyond the Rainbow
As much as I loved the life we had and all the times we played,
I was so very tired and knew my time on earth would fade.
I saw a wondrous image then of a place that's trouble-free
Where all of us can meet again to spend eternity.
I saw the most beautiful Rainbow, and on the other side
Were meadows rich and beautiful -- lush and green and wide!
And running through the meadows as far as the eye could see
Were animals of every sort as healthy as could be!
My own tired, failing body was fresh and healed and new
And I wanted to go run with them, but I had something left to do.
I needed to reach out to you, to tell you I'm alright
That this place is truly wonderful, then a bright Glow pierced the night.
'Twas the Glow of many Candles shining bright and strong and bold
And I knew then that it held your love in its brilliant shades of gold.
For although we may not be together in the way we used to be,
We are still connected by a cord no eye can see.
So whenever you need to find me, we're never far apart
If you look beyond the Rainbow and listen with your heart.
(Written by CG - 1995)
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.
