Eulogy for Tommie
Saturday, December 26th, 2009Dear all
On behalf of Tommie, the cat who had a great fighting spirit, I am writing this note to inform all those who cared and loved him before.
“Thank you for loving me unconditionally. My mummy whom I saw on Christmas Eve, Aunt Phyllis for never giving up on me, Mei Mei who cared for me with abundance of love and La La who was always there for me. And thank you to the doctors at The Animal Doctors for your healing hands. I am glad for being in all of your loving hands.”~ Tommie

I am a fighter~ Tommie
Tommie passed away on Christmas Day at 4.47pm. He was diagnosed with terminal renal failure 7 months ago and was given a week to live then. Being a true fighter, he had shown us all what it was to live a life the way he wanted.
He will be remembered in our hearts always.
Poem For Cats
And God asked the feline spirit
Are you ready to come home?
Oh, yes, quite so, replied the precious soul
And, as a cat, you know I am most able
To decide anything for myself.
Are you coming then? asked God.
Soon, replied the whiskered angel
But I must come slowly
For my human friends are troubled
For you see, they need me, quite certainly.
But don’t they understand? asked God
That you’ll never leave them
That your souls are intertwined. For all eternity
That nothing is created or destroyed
It just is….forever and ever and ever.
Eventually they will understand,
Replied the glorious cat
For I will whisper into their hearts
That I am always with them
I just am….forever and ever and ever.
