Thank you all for your kind words. It still hurts so much, and yes, I am still in floods of tears. The grief I am feeling is just beyond words.
Taking my beautiful little darling to the vets to be cremated was one of the hardest things I have had to do, I have asked that she be cremated in her favourit blanket (an old dressing gown of mine) and that she be scattered in the gardens. She died at home as I couldn't get her vet to even answer the telephone to aid her. Watching her slowly die over the course of a couple of hours, and feeling so helpless was horrendous, but I understand that she had to leave, that her poor little body was just worn out. And I hope that one day we will be together again, all of us.
Her sister, and sparing partner, who is sat beside me now is also lost. Looking for her in all the familiar places and finding nothing but emptiness.
I have found a photograph of her which I am going to get framed next week with the dates underneath, I haven't had the heart to move her basket as it would feel like I was stripping her from my home and I just cannot do that.
Below is her photograph, taken when she was in her mischievous prime. I'll see you in my dreams my darling.
