I had my beloved cat Ra put to sleep a month ago. I really felt that my heart would break. I cried non stop for a week, and I knew my friends were worried about me. But we grieve as intensely and as long as we need to when saying goodbye to a furry companion. Although the tears have stopped, he was family to me, and I miss him terribly. <3
I found a prayer to Bast that I thought was quite beautiful. I love The Rainbow Bridge, but this is lovely, too.
Prayers for a Pet Cat
1. Ra, you have crossed over now,
into the spirit realm.
May you walk with Bast,
and I will see you again some day.
2. Mother Earth, we return to you
the body of one of your children.
His spirit will return to his ancestors,
and he will continue to live in our memories.
We are thankful that we were able
to share our lives with him,
and give him to your loving arms.
3. Bast, Sekhmet, we give you back your child.
Noble, regal, honorable cat.
Watch over him, and guide him on his way
to the spirit world.
May he be blessed in your names,
and hunt ever after beside you.
This is Ra. July 2000 to September 2014.
