Bio:
Riku was my first catfriend, a beautiful silver van-boy. Since I was a child he wasn't in my responsibility but I sure loved him with all my heart. Thanks to him I learned to understand, respect and love cats. He lived indoors while we were in the city and at weekends he was let outdoors. He always came when called, went into his carrier and off we drove to the city from the summerhouse. Sadly Riku was put to sleep against all my prayers and my strong anger, because of the allergia and asthma in the family. I silently swore I'll never do the same, I won't give up a familymember for any reason. I like to think Riku is now playing with Rommi and Sissi at the Bridge. I miss him and think about him often. And I still have a foto of him hanging on my wall. ? In Memoriam 1973-1977 ?

This beautiful poem was sent by Smokey, thank you for that.



Weep not for me though I am gone
Into that gentle night.
Grieve if you will, but not for long
Upon my soul's sweet flight.
I am at peace, my soul's at rest
There is no need for tears.
For with your love I was so blessed
For all those many years.
There is no pain, I suffer not,
The fear now all is gone.
Put now these things out of your thoughts,
In your memory I live on.
Remember not my fight for breath
Remember not the strife.
Please do not dwell upon my death,
But celebrate my life.


No tears of sorrow

No tears of sorrow did they shed,
No sins to be forgiven,
They closed their eyes in sleep,
And opened them in heaven.

I lack all certainty yet still I hope,
That at the edge of death,
I'll see a small cat racing,
The dark to wellcome me.
