Goodbye Beloved Pet
It is with great sadness that I must say goodbye to one of our oldest pets. From the moment we brought him home, he was special; though he was twice the size of his sister, he would still hide behind her for comfort. He never truly outgrew that sweet, shy nature.
If you petted him, he would knead your lap and suckle on your clothing for as long as you’d allow. He remained our 'forever baby.' Because my wife and I were unable to have biological children, we invested all our love into raising and fostering our animal companions—our true children.
I wish I could cry for his passing, but the medication I take prevents those tears from falling. Even so, the grief is heavy. I am grateful that the end was quick and that he is finally out of pain, but he leaves a massive hole behind. His mother, myself, his biological sister, and his many foster siblings will all miss him in our own way. Until we meet again, I pray we will see you in Heaven.
