We're Back

Well after way too long being away from Catsterland, we can safely say that we are back. A furiend of Meowm's gave her a lap top, and we can use the net in different areas of where we live.. so guess we're back andit's about time too..

Meowm can spend more time with me now, and we may even be able to check out Hammock Talk tonight, seeing that it's Friday and all. Just a lot of updating to do, and a surprise is coming to, but it's already at home and has been for awhile....I'll intorduce my newest granddaughter when her page is up and running, but keep your ears and eyes out for her, she will need lots of furiends, OK?

Till later, but not too late,
Buddy

Wednesday 2nd Rainbow Bridge Anniversary ...

My Sweet Boy

I usually write to you at home, in private...felt I needed to do this in your diary here at Catsterland.

I am having such a hard time lately... and know that it is because your anniversary is coming up...sometimes I think I am fine and have let you go...but then I break down, and miss you so...I don't think alot of people really get this, but that is ok, because we are family, and you will always be my baby.


Anyway...this is for you, my Sweet Handsome Prince, Buddy


I search for you in the midnight sky
I know the brightest star is yours, shining down on me

I listen to the first spring rains and cry,
thinking of how scared you were of the sound of rain,

In the heat of summer I remember how you tried to go outside,
just to enjoy a little sunshine and warmth

In the fall, the most beautiful time of the year, when the leaves are changing and the weathter dances it's magical waltz for all to enjoy: this is what I remember the most; you picking me out to come into my life and enrich it a hundred thousand times more then I could ever imagine it if I had not went into the Winnipeg Humane Society that day.

In the Winter I remember your snuggles and later in your life how you would want to be as close to the heat register as you could without becoming toast;

At Christmas, the wonderful memories and pictures I run through in my mind and on paper....

All this and more, how I remember you.... So many sweet precious memories, no one can ever can take that away from me, they belong to just you and me


Sweet Buddy my handsome Prince
on this your second anniversay to Rainbow Bridge
I need you to know that you are not forgotten,
not for one single day by your family who loves you the most
There have been many a day that I have cried in bitter pain and loneleness, then have had to stop and count the blessings and many a memory I cherise and hold dear,,,
I learned to smile, a little, thinking of you this past year..but still with a tear or two..
I put a picture or two away..but not many..for I LOVE YOU..
I have a dreams of you, but not enough..even though, thank you for coming to me, your Memowmy, and helping me to carry on.

Dear God please take very special care of my Buddy I love him so...

Until We're Together Again
© Katherine J. Cochran (BMI)
Vocal by Tiffany Coburn


Some believe
A star shining brightly in the heavens
Represents the love of someone they can't see
Others feel
The butterfly dancing in their garden
Is a symbol of a spirit flying free

But when a gentle breeze caresses your hair
Or you see an eagle soar in the air
Should you smile and remember me in prayer
Oh, I will be there

(chorus)
There's no need to say good-bye
One day we'll be together
Remember me and smile
I'm in your heart forever
I'll feel the love you send
Until we're together again

Close your eyes
You'll find me sailing in the sunset
Riding waves of bluest oceans ever seen
Holding hands
Of all the others here before me
My head upheld to hear the angels sing

I can do all the things I've always dreamed of
I'll be watching over you from above
Don't worry about me because
I brought along all your love

(chorus)
There's no need to say good-bye
One day we'll be together
Remember me and smile
I'm in your heart forever
I'll feel the love you send
Until we're together again

It doesn't matter where you are
My love will shine upon you from that star
Like the butterfly, now I'm free
Ascending through the sky peacefully

(final chorus)
There's no need to say good-bye
One day we'll be together
Remember me and smile
I'm in your heart forever
I'll feel the love you send
All the love you send
And you hold on to the love I send
Until we're together again

We'll be together again

This is wonderful and beautiful. We, Buddy's family are truly blessed and happy for this wonderful gift. Thank you, once again!!!

I really miss Buddy, it's now four months and lots has happend to our family since then...like we're moving into a much larger house, but it is subsidized housing and this is a good thing, also Friday is great and does not require surgery after all as he does not have a hernia. Bijou is doing well as can be...but this is Buddy's diary and should focus on him. So, yes I really do miss him alot, I think about him alot through out the day, every day. He would have loved the new house we are moving to, but I don't think he would have been able to manage the stairs....b ut now he will be able to whenever he comes to visit us.

LOVE YOU BUDDY!!!!!

I love you very v ery much

Your Buddy

I Went to Rainbow Bridge

This is Buddy Meowmy. As some of you are aware by now, we lost Buddy on Monday, November the 17th.

This is a very difficult time for us. I had Buddy for eleven years. I adopted him from the Winnipeg Humane Society on October 11, 1997. I was told at the time that he was between six and eight years old. Buddy actually picked me out as I came to pick out a dog and went home with him instead.

What an incredible journey we both had together. Buddy was that most caring guy I ever met. We had each other for seven years before Friday came into our lives. When I found Friday screaming his head off and brought him into our home, Buddy took one look at Friday and fell in love. PaPa Buddy loved and cared for Friday everyday. Buddy also accepted Bijou without any problems.

There was never any health issues with Buddy.

I can go on forever about him, but I need to keep lots locked up to because I am so scared of loosing anything a bout Buddy.

The last couple of nights I have been busy looking through photos and setting some up all over the house. Every room now has a picture of him. I also put all on disk, as I am afraid of loosing any.

I know what I'm doing...in my own way I'm looking for him, just like Friday and Bijou is still doing.

The nights are the worst...he slept right beside me and in the morning when I woke up he would be laying on the top of my head.

What a wonderful, sweet boy.

Buddy's remains will be coming home. I just can't put him out of my sight.

Some people will probably think I am crazy, but the first night I had to keep busy and cleaned my house. While vaccuming in front of the washroom, from the corner of my eye, I know I saw him sitting at the corner of the vanity like if he was waiting for me to fill his water bowl. And when I looked straight at the spot of course I couldn't see him.

Last night I felt peaceful. I was in the bedroom watching a movie. Bijou and Friday were in two different rooms of the house. I heard a thump. I have heard this same thump for the last eleven years. I wanted to make sure, and went to check on them both. Yep, sure enough they were both asleep, one on the couch in the living room and the other in the TV room sound asleep in the rocker.

I truly believe that Buddy has come to visit and bring me peace. To tell me in his own way that forever he lives on and will care and love us and is still concerned about us.


My sweet beautiful Prince, sleep well....nighty night Buddy, Mommy loves you lots.

Wow!!! I Am In EXCELLENT Health...

Dr. Tanya Anderson checked me out today and said for a guy my age, I'm in excellent health.

That sure made my Meowmy happy as she worries about me on account of my age. Pretty soon we will be celebraing our anniversary together. It's on October 11 and Meowmy decided all before that we will celebrate my birthday as this day, too.

So I am going on anywhere from seventeen to ninteen years old. I am truly blessed to have great health, and don't take this very lightly. I luv my furmily sooooo very much, but especially my Momma.

I am her very first kitty and we became a furmily when we both really needed each other.

I really don't need anything for my birthday as I feel I have everything a boy could possible want...a great loving home with the worl's greatest MaMa, a darling little boy, Friday, who I truly adore and also Bijou, who bugs the beegee's out of me and keeps me on my toes. But most importantly, I have good health and don't want to toot too much and bring bad luck on it. But I saw and felt how Meowmy took it and I just had to look deep in her eyes and give that certain twinkle look with a paw outstretched to touch her hand and a Merra Meom sound, that said I know just how you feel, cuz I feel the same way, too...I'm not going anywhere anytime soon if I have anything to say or do about it...

Buddy

I Finally get to go to work with Momma

Yeah!!! After all these years of Meowmy saying, " I wish I can take you with me Buddy, but I can't" and leaving me to look at the door she closed and locked. Now Momma is saying to me, "Guess what Buddy, your going to go to work with me"

I'm so catcited!!! I finally get to see where Meowmy goes and does all day. She smells like other animals when she comes home and says that she works at a place called " vet clinic"

I think I was at a place like that a couple of times years before wif meowmy. She wants to get me ears checked out and a general over all health check.

I think she is kind of scared to get me checked out on account of my age. But I think it would be a great idea to find out just how great health I'm in to put Meowmy's mind at ease.

Only problem is, I don't like to be in a cage in a moving vehicle....I'm going to scream my head off, and that will cause stress on myself and on Meowmy, as she is doing highway driving!!!
