๐๐พ Another little angel has crossed the rainbow bridge. ๐พ๐
I received some heartbreaking news today about one of my lovely clients, who has been with me since I first started my cat-sitting journey. Sadly, beautiful Zimba crossed the rainbow bridge over the weekend ๐๐ She passed peacefully in her own home, surrounded by all her family, which is such a beautiful and comforting thought. ๐ฉท
So Honey, Poppy and now our lovely Zimbs. ๐ฃ๐ The only little bit of comfort in all this heartbreak is imagining them all together again, somewhere over the rainbow bridge, keeping each other company. ๐พ๐๐ฅบ One of the hardest parts of this job is the heartbreak that comes with it. As much as I love what I do, building such special bonds with your cats means that saying goodbye is never easy. Of course, nothing compares to the heartbreak their families go through, but I honestly never expected to form such deep connections and friendships through this little business of mine. In the last three years, I think Iโve made more friendships with cats than I have with humans! ๐ฅน๐ฑโค๏ธ
Rest peacefully, beautiful Zimba. ๐ Thank you for all our little chats, for keeping me company while you enjoyed your sunbathing sessions in the garden on those lovely spring and summer days, and for being one of the special little souls who has made this job so meaningful to me. Iโll miss you more than you know, lovely girl. โ๏ธ๐พ๐
And a special thank you to Zimbaโs family for being so welcoming and for trusting me with all three of your beautiful girls over the years. It has been such a privilege to care for them and to become a little part of your lives. My heart and thoughts are with you all during this difficult time. Sending you so much love. ๐ฉท๐พ
Until we meet again over the rainbow bridge, lovely Zimbs. ๐๐พ๐ค
Iโve added pics of honey & poppy in honour of remembering them ๐พ๐ฅฐ
