"This is the violet hour, the hour of hush and wonder, when the affectations glow and valor is reborn, when the shadows deepen along the edge of the forest and we believe that, if we watch carefully, at any moment we may see the unicorn."

Animal Wednesday

As you know, I have lost three dear friends in as many months...in fact, I am attending another Life Celebration tonight for one of them.  I hope this is the last one for eons!  But, this month, I have also lost two beloved
Animal-Friends .and so, I am dedicating this post to them - and to their *Parents*.


Gizzy
Beloved Peke of Doris

Gizzy was intelligent, funny and....SPOILED.  He lived a wonderful life in Georgia with his *Mum*, Doris.  He was, indeed, the personification of a "Lion Dog"....fearless and faithful.


Sunshine
The *Ruler* of Teri and her DH's Heart and Home - in two states!

This feathered beauty was so amazing.....she flew (literally) into Teri's Home....and then, she took over...small, but mighty...and yes.....SPOILED!

Both Doris and Teri are grieving....they loved these little ones with all their hearts.  Those of you who have *pets* - know what I mean.

I miss Gizzy and Sunshine too....although I was a long-distance *Auntie*,
I enjoyed seeing their photos and reading about their exploits. When we lose a pet....is it the ONLY sad thing about having one...because they give 1,000,000 % love and joy.

Animals....so wonderful....

HAW!

Love,

♥ Robin ♥

p.s. Doris and Teri, I hope you don't mind my adding these photos.....

    Ah, Teri... it feels better to *hear* your voice....I have been so worried... Marianne and I shared some loving memories of Sunshine yesterday. She did, indeed grab onto all of our hearts....and she will continue to live there - forever.

    Love and more love,

    ♥ Robin ♥

    Ah what a sweet post. So nice of you to remember those who have lost their dear ones even if they are of the furry persuasion. They are dearly loved too. Sorry to hear about your friends you have lost too.

    It has been a terrible month for you with all those losses!
    My heart goes out to Teri and Doris. I know how heartbroken they are. Both Gizzy and Sunshine were so special. I will also miss both and reading their adventures. Sunshine brought us REAL sunshine when she flew in teri's life she flew into my heart and growing up with 3 Pekes Gizzy stole my heart from the moment I saw him.
    Beautiful post dear for our beloved friends!
    HAW!!!!!
