Good afternoon friends of AHR, I take up the pen and keyboard to write this post as a dedication to Bob, the clinic cat. Our sweet Bobby has since passed away, but he will never be forgotten, nor will any of the furry friends who we have loved and have passed on. But this is not goodbye, only a pause until we meet again. So during this time, we will keep up the blog, for Bob.
September has passed, and October is now upon us – the pumpkin spice season, and yes, apparently there is such a thing as pumpkin spice treats for dogs! During this time, remember to keep your furry loved ones close, keep them comfortable, and keep them healthy.
I look forward to delving into October with Halloween-themed posts, interesting thoughts, and helpful tips for our pets. I now close this brief post with a poem, in memoriam to our beloved clinic cat, Bob.
Waiting at the Door
I was just a kitten when we first met,
I loved you from the start.
You picked me up and took me home,
And placed me in your heart.
Good times we had together,
We shared all life could throw.
But years passed all too quickly,
My time has come to go.
I know how much you miss me,
I know your heart is sore
I see the tears that fall
When I’m not waiting at the door.
You always did your best for me,
Your love was plain to see.
For even though it broke your heart,
You set my spirit free.
So please be brave without me,
One day we’ll meet once more.
For when you’re called to heaven,
I’ll be waiting at the door.
