We are Silke family We are rescuers. Until the end and even beyond. We need funds to cover Silke’s memorial and burial or cremation when that decision is made. Until then Silke…
we weren’t ready for you to leave us Silke. We had pups to socialize tomorrow, transports Monday, cats (yes Silke even turned into a cat person ) to fix Tuesday. The animals still need you. We still need you. Your huge heart for all things God made 4 legged. Your life was too short. Too hard. Your family was small. And it wasn’t by blood. It was your rescue community. The shock and tears today. I told you I was going to beat you if you over slept. You were gone though. When it came to animals you didn’t over sleep. You were there for them . I should have known. Even when I got there I was ready to walk in and shake you awake. Maybe toss some water on you for over sleeping. But you were gone. The words when they came out of the sheriffs mouth. No. No I didn’t hear that right. No you were at my house 15 hours ago. We joked. You frustrated me. You dropped more cats at my house. You dont even like cats but they were keeping you up at night with worry. You were determined to make a better life for this mamma. Her name is no longer Boo. She’s now Silke. She’s the last save. Your last save. That word, last, it’s too soon my friend. My fellow rescuer. Anyone in rescue knows. That bond is like family. Come hell or high water we stand together. You weren’t supposed to leave us so soon. Love you my friend. Diesel misses you soooooo much. He is so confused, as are we. He didn’t leave your side. Your were his heart and him yours. We will look out for him though my friend. Run across that bridge to the babies on the other side. Don’t look back. Don’t look down. Be happy. Be free. We’ll get there again one day. But not today. We miss you.
