Barney
Summer 1988 - September 3, 2001
I lost my beloved Barney on September 3, 2001. This was one of the greatest losses of my life! Words cannot express the pain I feel for the loss of my best friend. Barney died on labor day, a day of rest and peace. Now sweet Barney you will rest in peace forever. I love you and you will always be in my heart and soul. One day I know we will be together again, perhaps at The Rainbow Bridge. Until then just know that my love for you will protect and surround you in Heaven. Barney came to me when he was just a small kitten and I a teen. We grew up together. Barney fit in the palm of my hand when I first got him and he would sleep in my hair and knead. Whenever I would eat anything Barney felt entitlement and would sit in front of my plate with his big green charming eyes looking into mine. He knew he would get that taste of food or anything else he wanted, because he was certain that he was the center of my universe and was very proud of it. He was right of course. Barney was there for me for everything that life offers good or bad. If I was sad he would just head bud me, hey who am I kidding he would head bud me anyway even if I was happy. I stood by barney when he was diagnosed with Feline diabetes and later cancer. Barney was very strong, he tolerated Chemotherapy every month for three and a half years! He was loving and understanding even during these treatments as I held him and kissed him and told him how much I loved him. He truly was my best friend. Barney was there when I opened my eyes in the morning. I think he could hear my eyelids open because when they did he was in my face. Barney's most favorite thing was the sink, He would race me to the sink in the morning for his AM drink. It was always a battle as to whether He would get the drink first or if I would brush my teeth. Now Barney you will have an unlimited sink and from its faucet will run the cold water you loved so much and sprinkled within will be my love. I LOVE YOU Memorial by Mindy (Barney's mommy) One of the many who loved him, but loved him most
