Mice who have gone to see Jesus
Muffin- Dear Round mouse, you were everyone's favorite meece. Everything came second to food for you. Except me. You loved me like another mouse. Only more. I remember you would sit on my tongue with no fear, just perfect trust. hen you had something yummy you would share. You would feed me tidbits like I fed you tidbits. You were so short and thin, almost weightless, yet your tiny belly was round as can be. You would boogie in the ball and in your wheel like nobody's business. Anytime that was good for me was good for you. When I woke up at night, all I had to do was say your name and you would wake up & come out of your coconut shell and wait for me to open the door and you'd comfort me if I was sad, or afraid. Even if it was in the day during your sleepytime, you were always ready to play with me. To know the amazing comfort that can come from a little mouse is to know there is a God. Not a day goes by when I don't think of you and long for your company. Come to think of it, maybe food was never first after all.
Biscuit-
Dear wee Rottweiler mouse, I 'll never forget the way you would bite the bars and arch your back, hoping I'd open the door and you could run up my sleeve. You were always so happy and assertive and eager to see me.Now I'm eager as can be to meet you at the other side of the rainbow bridge.
Palooka-
Am I ever glad the pet store lady grabbed the wrong tail. I guess it turned out to be the right tail, after all, didn't it? You were the one to give me my first mouse kiss--you were my first mouse ever--and I'm blowing you kisses hoping the wind will carry them high enough to reach you. Love undying, your friend & keeper Ilea.
Peachy Keen-
I knew you were an under-nourished runt when I bought you, but I didn't care. You were the cutest tiniest mouse I ever saw, & as shy as you were, I sensed a certain amount of trust as I held you in my hands. I hope I made your precious fleeting little life as good as it could be. Love you forever.
Pand
-You wee runt of a panda mouse! I didn't choose you, you chose me. And a good thing it was, too. An extraordinary mouse you were, and I look forward to seeing you again someday.
Tanenbaum-
My lazy little Tan Patootie mouse. You were an A+ pet and were lacking in nothing. Except maybe energy and muscle tissue. Whether you were posing as a toasty marshmallow or a hot caramel sundae, you always warmed our hearts
Dot-
So sorry to see you go that way and so soon too, You were a little treasure and I guess God just couldn't wait any longer to hold you in His hand once again. Happy days, Dot.
Nilly-
We'll never forget your testicle-run, and how you used to smell like french toast, or your athletic abilities(long live the tail rudder!) and your nose poking and the excitement in your little brown eyes. We hold you dear and treasure every single day we had with you. We love you, Bill. We always will.
The Gold Mouse-
I knew I loved you before I met you. I feel like I’ve known you forever, even before God knit you together in your mother’s womb. You first came into my life when I started volunteer work at Pets 101. You were untouchable, a pink jellybean that must be left be. I almost never got you, except that it was my birthday around the time you were weaned and my dad just couldn’t say no. Thank God for that. As skittish as you were, I knew I could tame you. You pulled a lot of Houdinis and consumed a lot of crackers before you finally learned to trust me. You were sweet as could be, the way you climbed your tail and groomed the bunny. I thought you were gone that night and was putting you into the tea box with your little fleecie blanket. And then you stood up. I got to say my final goodbye to you even after you were lost to me. That has been the greatest gift I myself have ever received. You were the best birthday present EVER. Now I feel like you are still with me every day and I am heartbroken when I go to hold you and you’re not there. I can’t find the words to say except to tell you that I will always love you. Happy trails, Gold Mouse.
