Tabatha was my special horse, 9 yrs old 16.2hh Irish sports horse. She seemed to take ill a wk after my partner died on 5th July 2008!! she had colic this can be serious in horses, the vet came out and treated her, after spending, the whole night with her at the stables she seemed to recover. She seemed fine for a few wks we moved yards and still everything was good, After another couple of wks she became ill again and had to be taken to the veterinary hospital, she spent a wk here came home and continued to progress, after a wk or so she started to have attacks of colic every Thursday, I have no idea why this happened neither did the vet, she was on almost every lotion and potion going to help her specialised feeds and loads of love and gentle rides out. apart from when she felt very good and the rides were a bit more yipee! She then seemedto recover again, no colic for ages yes I thought she had turned the corner!!!! How wrong was i?? I went to the yard as normal Christmas eve to find her ill not the normal cloic signs just down, weak, tired and when i looked in her eyes tired of life and just begging me to help! I called the vet immediately who managed to get to us a couple of hrs later, after examining my beautifull girl she said that her heart was going into failure and she had no or should i say very very poor blood pressure, she said i could try to do the approx 2 hr journey to the hospital but that she felt medically she would be likely to go down in my trailer, if by a small miricle she made it to the hospital that her sats were so poor they would never be able to operate as the anasthetic would kill her!! I looked up and asked WHY?? no answer....... I asked the vet to wait till my princess lay down herself which she did, and then my beautifull girl died with her head on my lap as I asked her to forgive me. Tabatha was one in a million I still have 5 horses which i love dearly but my girl has left a huge hole that will never be able to be filled, I like to think of her with Dean, him getting all the riding practice in before i join him. looking after my girl and loving her just the way I did. R.I.P my beautifull special Tabatha, run the pastures in heaven darling xxxxx xxxxxxx

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together...
