Short
in stature
Pure
in heart.
We
knew we loved you
From
the start.
You
touched our lives
Each
and every day
You
filled our thoughts
In
so many ways.
Although
you have left us
You
will always be near
For
you pygmy friend
Were
special and dear.
A
rare find you were
The
richest of treasure
And
for the joy that you brought us
We'll
love you forever.

These
are some special friends that were taken from us. May they find the
rainbow bridge---the special crossing for loved animals where the grass is
always green and the days always sunny. Those that have never loved a goat
won't understand, for those that have....I need say no more!

In 2005 we experienced a tremendous
amount of grief in several pet's passing. We hope that we do not have to lose
this many again for quite some time.
KC (Keira's Cat) was born May 1993. She was hit by a car Jan
2005. She was a great mouser who died happy with a mole in her
mouth.
This was my first parrot Sasha---I had her for just over 1
month when I found out she had not been fed right as a youngster and had to be
put down! I was devastated! She was a remarkable bird and enriched my life
very much. I will not forget her.

This

love.
Born
and died Spring 2008
In
August 2008 we had 2 pitt bulls break into our show doe pen at 11 PM. Sue heard
the noise and ran out stopping what could have been a total loss from occurring.
At the end of the horrific events our lovely doe, Buffalo Gil's Hope who had
just won her first GCH win a couple of weeks prior had to be put down, she was
simply too injured to survive.
Our
little joy Taylor had 12 punctures to her neck and shoulder. She survived bloat
and partial paralysis to make a complete recovery. Fir Meadow Xaviera also had 3
small punctures and had no ill-effects.
Hope
was sweet and special. She will be missed.
Kody-She
was born October
