A Pet's Last Will And Testament

September 20, 2015

Before humans die, they write their last Will & Testament, give their home and all they have, to those they leave behind. If with my paws, I could do the same, this is what I'd ask...

To a poor and lonely stray I'd give:

My happy home.

My bowl and cozy bed, soft pillows and all my toys.

The lap, which I loved so much.

The hand that stroked my fur and the sweet voice which spoke my name.

I'd will to the sad, scared shelter cat the place I had in my human's loving heart, of which there seemed no bounds.

So, when I die, please do not say, "I will never have a pet again, for the loss and pain is more than I can stand."

Instead, go find an unloved dog or cat, one whose life has held no joy or hope and give my place to him.

This is the only thing I can give... the love I left behind.
