Bootsie was a lovely pet who was great with children and loved a cuddle. Boy could that cat eat!
When he was 16 he developed cataracts, but the vet said that an anaesthetic was too risky due to his age. Despite his failing vision, Bootsie remained fit and well.
Unfortunately, during his last year with us, Bootsie developed dementia and needed lots of TLC, but one night he went into the garden and never returned. Our vet told us that this was common behaviour for cats who were nearing their end, and that he probably went off to die quietly. We would have liked to have been with him of course, but Mother Nature intervened.
We are left with some lovely and funny memories of our lovely Bootsie.

Heart Song
by Maryan Amaral.. 1/01/00
Darkness fell here yesterday,
His life time came to pass,
Leaving tears and pain within his wake,
His body's breath couldn't last....
But he has not really left you,
And when you're feeling sad,
You'll feel his little tender purr,
And the warmth you've always had.
He'll bring to you sweet butterflies,
And the call of nature's wings,
You'll feel his tender loving nudge,
When you're doing your daily things.
With all the love of your special bonds,
You both have shared so long,
Means that he can never really leave,
He'll be forever your heart song.

Precious Love
The agony is so great...
and yet I will stand it.
Had I not loved so very much...
I would not hurt so much.
But God knows I would not want to diminish
that precious love...
By one fraction of an ounce.
I will hurt...
And I will be grateful for that hurt
For it bears witness to the depth of my love.
And for that I will be eternally grateful.
