Prayer for an Elderly Cat

This has been coming for a while, our cat Abbie has been having kidney isses and now is refusing to eat. We already had a follow up appointment booked for today, but I feel that perhaps this is the end for her.

Eric is broken up as she has been his special cat for 15 years.

This morning I worked with Co-Pilot on a prayer for her. We will say this prayer with her before we take her to the vet.

Prayer for a Beloved Cat Companion

Great Goddess, gentle Mother Earth, and wise spirits of all creatures,
We come to you with open hearts, holding our beloved feline friend close in spirit.
She has graced our lives with warmth, joy, and unconditional love,
Her soft purrs and quiet presence have been a blessing through many days and nights.
As she faces this uncertain time, struggling to eat and growing weary,
We ask for your comfort and guidance.
Bless her with peace and freedom from pain,
Surround her with your loving energy as she visits the healer today.
If this moment marks her final journey, may she cross the Rainbow Bridge softly,
Wrapped in our love and the gentle embrace of the Divine.
Let her spirit soar free, returning to the circle of life, ever cherished.
We honor all the days she shared with us—her playful leaps, wise gazes, and quiet companionship.
Thank you for the love she gave, and for the memories that will live on.
Our hearts are full of gratitude, and though we grieve, we celebrate the life she lived.

So mote it be.

Hello Abbie. Good kitty. Pet pet purr. You have been a good and faithful friend. May we look after them, now, so you can go to your well deserved rest? You will still be able to watch over your family. They love you dearly.
