Another star will shine tonight

After living a long and much loved life, Khyra's sibe-sister, Kyrye, has made the journey to the rainbow bridge. Kyrye did not have her own blog so please go to Khyra's blog to offer your support during this difficult time.

We'll be lighting a candle tonight in Kyrye's honor and watching for her star.


Message From Valhalla

You were with me to the very end and even after I had "gone" you held me,
and as my soul left my body and I looked down and saw you crying,
I wanted so much to tell you that I understood. You did this for me.

I tried to tell you in my own way that it was time for me to leave,
and I thank you for understanding. No other will take my place,
but those I left behind will need your love and affection as I have had.

You still think of me, and there are times you try to hide your tear-filled eyes....
but please...be happy and think not of sadness,
but of how I made you happy and made you laugh at the funny and smart things I did.

There are no fences in Valhalla, for no one has the desire to "dig out".

There are no thunderstorms in Valhalla, therefore fear is never present.

There are no fights in Valhalla. Everyone is congenial.

There is no hunger. There is no thirst. There is much to explore.
Many of us who are older take care of the little ones and guide them.
It's fun watching them run with their ears flopping and their curly tails wagging.

We have four seasons in Valhalla, and most of us agree, winter is our favorite.

So you see, my loved one, I am very happy...

When it comes time for my friends to leave,
I will meet them at the gates of Valhalla,
and I will acquaint them with this beautiful and serene place,
and I will take care of them for you.

Thank you for loving me, caring for me, and having the courage to let me go with dignity.

OH, how beautiful and how very appropriate. We are in tears here, just rolling down the face. It has been a tough year for so many of us. Khyra and her Mom have been there everytime for everyone, now it is our time to support them. Our paws are crossed in honor of Kyrye. We are sure she is running free now with all of our beloved furbabies. Our hearts go out to Khyra and our good friend Phyll.

Hugs, Phantom, Thunder, and Kathie

We have been so hurting for Phyll and Khyra since hearing of Kyrye's turn last week. Such a beautiful Sibe and we have asked our Nikita to meet her at the bridge and provide a very special escort.

We were so sad to hear about Kyrye's passing. But, she had a long, and happy life and was VERY loved. May she wear her silver harness with pride.

Godspeed sweet, beautifyl Kyrye.
