!_HogwartsHamster_! Posted May 9, 2004 Report Share Posted May 9, 2004 I got thi poem from a friend who sent it to me in my email after my hamster Pashmina died.I thought i could share it with you guys so when you lose an animal you lov this might makeyou feel better. The Rainbow Bridge Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies that has been especially close to somone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.There are meadows and hills for all our special friends so they can run and play together.There is plenty of food, water, and sunshine and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor;those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing:they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance.His bright eyes are intent;his eager body quivers.Suddenly he begins to run from the group.Flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted.And when you and your special friend finally meet you cling to each other in joyous reunion, never to be parted again.The happy kisses rain upon your face;your hands again caress the beloved body.And you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet.So long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vixen Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 That poem made me cry, I miss my baby bird so much. She was an Indian Mynah. I used to hand feed her and i was teaching her how to fly from her cage to me. She would follow me every where, running as fast as her little legs would take her. So this is for you, Amber. A poem of my own: Little Amber Mynah, full of flight You struggled for life with all your might I can't believe I didn't see you fight because your baby birdy face was so bright. And now I know you see the light and I'll see you in my dreams tonight Little Amber Mynah, full of flight By Liandra (Lee) S. What a beautiful poem. I am sorry, but last names are not permitted.

MY HAMSTER!!!!cried....sniff.... Why all my pets leave me!!!Including my doggy cause my mum give it away..!! I am so sorry that your pets have passed away. If a hammie escapes, I can tell you a very quick way to catch them. The father might still be out there and you can catch him. If you take a tall bucket, place food in the bottom and make a ramp up to the top of the bucket, your hammie will go up the ramp and jump into the bucket to get the food. As long as the bucket is tall, your hammie will not be able to escape. If the hammie just got out, you can usually catch him almost immediately. As your hammie has been out on his own for a while, then it might take a while. The bucket of food is best put out at night. As for the tank with the mother. It is really important NOT to put the tank in a window or someplace where sunlight can enter the tank. If sunlight is streaming through the glass, your hammie would die of heat stroke. Also, never place your cage or tank on the floor as the hammie's can get mites, fleas and other little insects from the floor. Lastly, never give your hammies toilet paper, kleenex, tissue, paper towels or any white paper product. There is bleach in the paper product and the type of paper the tissue is made of makes it very hard for the hammie to get this out of his or her pouches. Hope you are doing better.

pinkiepinkie11 Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 My rabbit passed away, but he lived a long life for a rabbit. A month later, my hamster passed away. The normal life expectancy for the kind of hammy I had was a year, but he lived to almost two. And when we first saw him in his cage, we thought he was sleeping because he was still curled up. That told us that he didn't suffer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That told us that he didn't suffer. I am sorry to hear about your rabbit and hammie. It is always comforting to know that they did not suffer. I had a friend, she passed away half in and half out of her food dish, so I assumed that she did not suffer either. I am so happy to see you have returned. Hopefully you will stay and post more.

Krisluvsdogs Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 I lodt my dog of 16 years last month. She died of old age. I miss Suzie a lot but I know she's with her buddy bou who I lost when I was on 10th grade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horatio Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 *gives Kris a cyber hug* I am so sorry. Just because a pet is old and has lived a long and full life, does not mean the pain is any less. Pets are family members and it hurts so much when they are gone. By the way... our Suzie was a bassett hound. What a terrific dog she was!!! *thinks of Suzie with very fond memories* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
