the hand that stroked my fur and sweet voice which called my name.
I will to the sad, scared shelter pet,
the place I had in my human’s loving heart of which there seemed no bounds.
So, when I die, please do not say, “I will never have a pet again,
for the loss and pain are more than I stand.”
Instead, go find an unloved pet– one whose life has held no joy or hope,
and give MY place to HIM.
This is the only thing that I can give.
The love I left behind.
This is my inheritance!
My Will and My Last Testament.

Thank you so much for posting this. It really makes me want to adopt another pet when I return from my upcoming visit to TV later on this month.
