You found me out I dont know how, you just moved in and I loved you from the moment I first saw you. You were my little boy, my friend, my pet, I laughed at you, cried on you and you were always there no matter what. Such a huge part of my life for 10 years...and such a wonderful part, you bought me so much joy and I will never forget you nor stop loving you. I wish every day you were still here with me. So many amazing and unforgettable memories.

Smudge, my little calico princess! I love her so much. She is so timid and has a tiny little mew. She loves cuddles and will happily snuggle up with me for hours. She loves my dog Jake and she always cuddles with him too. Her favourite toy is a little ball that she loves to bat around!

GOLDEN MEMORIES
They say memories are golden, well, maybe that is true.
I never wanted memories, I only wanted you.
A million times I cried.
If love alone could have saved you, you never would have died.
In life I loved you dearly, in death I love you still.
In my heart you hold a place no one else could fill.
If tears could build a stairway and heartache make a lane.
I'd walk the path to Heaven and bring you back again.
Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us back one by one, the chain will link again.

Smudge, you always did your own thing. Affection given to you was on your terms. Even though you were never really one for a lot of stroking, you became more loving towards the end of your life. I remember 2 weeks before you left us, I woke up to find you sitting on my bed staring at me with your paw on my arm. I knew then that you were telling me it would soon be time to let you go and my heart broke. On August 13th 2013, I held you in my arms as you passed away taking a piece of my heart with you. Miss seeing you saunter down the garden path without a care in the world. Love you forever. XXXXX

You were always such a wild one, my handsome Smudge. We took you and your brother on at 8 weeks old when you were no bigger than a tea cup and I was lucky to have you in my life for 7 years. You were a fierce hunter and would catch anthing you thought you could, which was pretty much anything and everything, the total opposite of your home lovng brother. You liked to have fuss and curl up on the bed but it always had to be on your terms - you had to be Mr Independant. I wish everyday I knew what had happened to you, I know your wild side drew you away from home and into danger, but you were still so very much loved. I know you are causing mayhem over the rainbow bridge and have finally been reunited with your brother, please look after him for me until we can all be together again. I love you and you are forever in my heart and thoughts.

Missing You
I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying. You found it hard to sleep.
I whined to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
"It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."
I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea,
You were thinking of the many times your hands reached down to me.
I was with you at the shops today. Your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.
I was with you at my grave today, You tend it with such care.
I want to re-assure you, that I'm not lying there.
I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.
I gently put my paw on you, I smiled and said "It's me."
You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair.
I tried so hard to let you know, that I was standing there.
It's possible for me to be so near you everyday.
To say to you with certainty, "I never went away."
You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew...
in the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.
The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning
and say "Good-night, God bless, I'll see you in the morning."
And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
I'll rush across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.
I have so many things to show you, there is so much for you to see.
Be patient, live your journey out... then come home to be with me.

Smudge
Unknown - 04/08/15
Last night my precious furbaby Smudge lost his fight with cancer and he crossed the Rainbow Bridge at 11.40. He was about 13 years old. We loved our other dogs but Smudge was something special from the beginning. He came to town as a stray. He had his own little daily routine where he went from place to place to be fed. My daughter Sabrina would often pop into one of the local shops and buy him a packet of meat or dog food and a pint of milk and feed him. When he first hit town he had a bit of rope around his neck and was covered in scars. A local council worker got the rope off his neck. Sometime later I was able to get a collar with my phone number onto him. It was still impossible to catch him properly though. One day I was travelling to see my mum and I was delayed for some reason. As I drove through town I spotted a car and trailer in front of me. I got as close as I could and knew then it was Smudge in the trailer. I followed that car all the way around town blowing my car horn. The car eventually stopped. I asked the driver was it his dog and he said no. It was a stray and he was the dog warden. The dog had been reported as being a nuisance. He asked me if I wanted him and of course I said yes. Needless to say I didnt visit my mum that day. He tried to escape every chance he got. My husband came home that evening and sat on a bench in the back garden. Smudge crept over to him, climbed on the bench and put his head in his lap. For a long time Smudge was afraid of tall men wearing dark clothes. That is why it was so amazing that he took to my husband who is tall and was wearing dark clothes at the time. Smudge continued to try to escape for the next few days. Then one night my husband took him for his evening walk and they went into a field. There was a tractor working in there. Smudge was afraid of the tractor and ran away from my husband. He came straight back to our house. I knew then that Smudge had finally accepted it as his home and us as his family. Things only got better for him from then. He continued to be afraid of tall men for years and would cry if he saw them and go behind us. Osteosarcoma took him from us in 6 short weeks. We finally had to call our vet last night and say goodbye to him.
