Dear Friends,Meowmie and I have just returned from our visit to my vet. I saw my usual vet today and was very pleased to hear him say that I did not have to have any blood taken. Instead, he told us that Meowmie must from now on feed me whatever I like and give me as much fuss as I want and give me every day the new pills he was prescribing. I thought this news would have made Meowmie very happy but it appears not to have done so. She has been crying. I think it is because my vet also told us that very soon Meowmie will need to send me to the only place where my cancer can be cured.
Since our return, Meowmie has being telling me about the place I will be going to. She says it is called the Rainbow Bridge. She says I will like it's warm climate and it's fields and trees and that the plentiful supply of food and drink I will find there will be much to my taste. I think I should be the judge of such things, don't you ? Meowmie tells me that everyone who goes to the Rainbow Bridge is very happy there and also that no-one ever gets ill. This pleases me. I like the idea of not being ill. I am so tired of being ill.
The only thing that saddens me about going to the Rainbow Bridge is that neither Meowmie nor her DH will be able to come with me. They have been such good slaves and I shall miss their devoted attention. But I am very happy to know that my brother Sam and Castor and Simon will be waiting at the Bridge to greet me and to show me around. Meowmie says she's sure Sam will be very keen to show me all the best trees to climb.
It seems that it may be only a few days before I set out on my journey. I am therefore not sure whether I will have enough time before I go to post the second part of my memoirs. To be on the safe side, I will instruct Meowmie to post it and the remaining parts when I have gone.
Now, dear friends, I see sunbeams on my living room floor and as I am in need of their warmth, I hope you won't mind if I stop writing now. In case I do not get the chance to post again, I will say goodbye.
I will miss you.
Mews and purrs
Gemma.
