Good-bye Jocy
June 4th, 2007 at 2:23 pm by Hope (Life)
Jocy passed away today. We burried her in the backyard next to a tiny cedar sapling.
Sam was a trooper and petted her one last time. He and Jocy were the closest, I think. This is really his first experience with the death of a pet he was close to. He has a big heart and is holding up well. Initially he did not want to see her or help. I am proud of him.
I don’t think Jessie quite understands, though she was there for the burial. She did pet Jocy one last time too.
So, to celebrate (yes, celebrate) her memory, we’ve planted plants, rescued a skink from the plastic pond and had lunch out. We will certainly miss our Jocy.

Always remember she chose YOUR FAMILY. As I recall she was a stray. I believe she knew she had limited time here on earth and chose a family who would love and cherish her.
Hugs to all of you, especially to my boy!

We are cat people here in our family. We know the pain of losing a beloved pet. We lost our cat last year and it took some time to feel okay but we did. We now have two new members of our family…..two black hunters who snuggle at the end of the day….
Sorry to hear of your lose,
Barb
