My Parents Didn't Tell Us About Life And Death: They Gave Us Pets.

Grief

We lost Goose.

Beautiful Goose Girl.

We went away for the weekend for a family celebration and left a great friend looking after the house and she didn't come home one night. On the Monday evening we received a call from the emergency vets surgery saying a pet with a chip registered to us had been brought in.

It was Goose. Our beautiful, semi feral, climbing genius of a kitten decided to check out the territory on the other side of the road and sadly didn't make it. She was a free spirit, keeping her in was impossible and we couldn't do it.

We have buried her in the garden with Beatrice the hen and hope they are some comfort for one another in the next phase of being whatever that may be.

Meanwhile the house is strewn with little reminders and it is all terribly sad.



RIP Goose Girl.
You brought Joy by the house full.
Love and Sadness
