Happy birthday to my dad ...

t
he Official Spokes Cat at Rikki's Refuge and his support team, Timmy and Sylvestra
and to my grandma ...
she be ... well there ain’t
nuf fingers and toes round here to count that much !!!!
I miss my dad .... a whole
lot ... he was a really cool dude ....
I sure wish he was still here to run the refuge .... He must a been about my age when he took
over ... I’ll be number 4 soon ... my how time files ... I’m getting old already !!!
I wish daddy had been able
to stay here longer on planet earth to teach me more about running a refuge
.... but his body had had a tough time
here .... and now it’s been three
years since he went to Rainbow Bridge.
Me and gramdmom ... we both
miss him whole bunches.
We went and satted on this
nice bench that Uncle Ron built for us ..... it’s on a hill overlooking our
Rainbow Bridge Cemetery .... It’s very
peaceful and nice .... and listen to those lovely wind chimes ....
I knew I could hear my dad
talking to me .... I talk to him when
I need help running the Refuge ... He’s so smart .... and he was so good with
people .....
Did you know he invented the
Spokes Animal program ? And it was his
idea to teach everybody about those of us who are Differently Abled ? I think he did a lot to help change the
world .... I hope I can follow along
in his paw prints ...
