As the hectic day draws to a close
And the daytime fades to night
I sit down at my computer
And visit my little gurl's site.
And when her page is fully loaded
When she's there and her face appears
Every time and without fail
It's sure to bring the tears.
Sometimes it's tears of happiness
Sometimes it's tears of pain
But the tears, they come with certainty
As sure as the springtime rain.
And after I spend some time with Dot
Quality time, my daughter and I
I always leave her with a little prayer
Before we say goodbye.
Now it's time to visit the new kids
The ones added to Critters today
I desire to get to know each one
In a personal and intimate way.
Every time I think "I'm in control
It won't get to me today
I'll visit each baby and then I'll leave
A little note and be on my way."
So with good intent I'll click on a pic
And enter that little one's site
And if I'm not careful I just might be
Sitting here staring at them all night.
Because it matters not to me if I visit
With a doggie or a kitty or a bird
My heart just breaks so bad sometimes
I'll leave without even a word.
I'll think "here I am a grown man
Battle scared by life on earth
Can I not think of something to say
Some comforting words of worth?"
So most times I'll usually leave a note
To convey sympathy that I've sent
Forgive me if I don't say the right thing
Because I try with good intent.
And then there's times, I must admit
As hard as I may try
The words won't come, I sit and stare
And like a newborn babe I cry.
Because I know that mommy or daddy
Or whoever it might be
Is walking the path that I walked
When Dollie was taken from me.
And if I could write a message
That would be a literary masterpiece
It still would just be scribble
Not causing their pain to cease.
So I want each and every one of you
Who may read this jumbled mess
To know my heart is with you
As your faith's put to the test.
Although I'm grieving just like you are
I want you each to clearly see
I'll always be here for you all
For you've got a friend in me..;)

My best friend, loyal companion and soul mate, has surely gone over the Rainbow Bridge, and I cannot begin to describe the grief, pain and suffering this has left in my heart. This was definitely one of those "once in a lifetime" dogs, the very one that won your heart from day one and it has been my honor and my privilege to have shared his life with mine.
So this is to you my friend, run, play and enjoy until WE MEET AGAIN!
My undying love,
Theresa

Leigh Nvwati has soemthing for Little Bit on his Valentine's Day Page.
I know what you mean by everyday being a memory of one thing or another. I am hoping to focus on Valentine's day of the many many days of love, loyalty, affection and butterfly kissies I got from my Nvwati.
Everyday was his Valentine's Day....... bless their little hearts eh? to come into our lives never knowing how much they will give us??

Hello all, I cant thank each and everyone here who has been so kind as to visiting Little Bits tribute, how much it means to us and that if it wasnt for all the love and support I have received here, I dont think I would be able to make it or get thru this. Valentines day is going to be tough because I just realized it is the 14th (as always) but that date 14 is the date we lost Little bit also , just in a month earlier. It is supposed to be a day of love and happiness, for me it will be missing love and saddness. Bless each of you here and know I pray for each of you and your fur babies too each nite. Y Ou have been wonderful.

Happy Valentine's Day to all of you. If you stop by Nvwati's Memorial and check out his Valentine's Day page there is something there especially for many of you. Anyone who doesn't find a valentine there for your furbaby know it is only because I haven't had time to get to them all. If you especially want one just let me know and I would be honoured to make you one as well.
Take care all.
Hugs
Amber

Roni. I am so very sorry. I have just visited Neehi's Memorial and signed the guestbook. Getting to know her better as you share.
Take care.

It has been a week since my baby walked over the rainbow bridge. Still seems unreal that she is gone, I expect her to come running to greet me when i get home I still hear her paw prints on the stairs, I sure do miss her tail banging on the walls. It is so painful to not have her, even tho' I know she had to go. That little darling brought so much happiness to all of us. I could go on forever talking about her and all the querky things she did. So Thanks to everyone that reads this. My beautiful Black Lab is happily eating "kneehis" in heaven now. I miss you girl... forever

We lost our beloved dachshund Stuart on Friday Feb. 1st unexpectantly. I miss him so very much and am having extreme guilt for not knowing he had cancer. It was so bad it ruptured his spleen - not sure I will be able to ever forgive myself. He was a member of our family and so loved. Most people do not understand the pain.

Edit Options for Guesbooks has been added. Now, you can control the options that visitor to your guestbook have available. If you don't like Smiley's (emotion icons) or unwanted font styles/sizes in your guestbook, you can turn this off.
To do this, go into Edit Mode and change the setting for "Edit Options for Guestbook"

Advanced Edit feature update! As we have received complaints on the side effects of the new editor for our memorials, we have added the ability for the advaced editor to be optional. Any of you who wish to go back and use the older style editor can now select this option.
To do this, go into edit mode and scroll to the bottom of the option page. There you will see the new option to select the editor type (simple, or advanced). Click on the simple version and this will take you back to the old format. This works better for older computers or computers with low memory.
Please provide feedback here if you have problems with this new option.

Well we took down her crate yesterday. Wow that was hard. My son was helping me. He is such a trooper for a nine year old. I cried so hard. He just gave me a hug. It was like Shadow was there. She always would come to me if I was crying or upset and put her head on me. Thank you to all who have left me messages. It really does help to know I can talk to people who know what I am feeling. I know some day I will be able to help someone too. In time!

We have received complaints on the recent changes to Critters.com. The font changes are reported to have sizing issues and in some cases, the upgraded edit boxes are slowing down the editing process.
We will change the fonts back to their original settings (the "old critters format") and we will add an option so that users can select whether to use the new edit boxes or the original, simple format, text boxes. Check back in this forum to confirm when these changes have been completed.
We appreciate everyone's feedback even if it is negative. We wish to make the site the best it can be and this is best done with feedback from you.
