Wishing Upon a Star or Ode to Hattie

Mom and I would feel it unfair to let this day go by without paying respect to a very special pup and Mom, who in retrospect either intentionally or subconsciously made their announcement they were leaving the social media world the day before Mother's day.

Hattie was many things to many pups, firstly, she was the picture of Haute Couture.  Her Mom is a wizard with fabric and a sewing machine.  We pups felt honored to be gifted with a Hattie Mae Original outfit handmade by the gracious Hattie and her Mom.  She was the center of revelry and hijinks.  Her Christmas games and other holiday celebrations are things true memories and legends are made of.

Most of all Hattie and her Mom were the oil on troubled waters and the balm on hurt hearts.  In other words these two truly have a Mothers heart, and have been a Mother to many a cyber pup.

The thing about Hattie and her Mom that we will never forget is their consistent reminders to show love in the middle of conflict, and acceptance when others would be intolerant.

Mom and I didn't know them long, but it doesn't take you long to figure out you've met an angel.  Love, acceptance, respect and compassion are things that can't truly be taught.  These are things that are inside one's heart and soul.  It's second nature to angels and is as simple as breathing to these two; thou difficult for some to fathom.

Indeed there will never be another Hattie and her Mom, but rather than rending our clothes and beating our breast may we instead grasp the essence of these special friends and in our own frail and mortal way attempt to honor their legacy by following their example.

(quote) "Remember it's much easier to show love, and compassion, rather than hate or intolerance.  The latter only scars the soul." (end quote).

There is so much more to say about these dear and special furiends but this pup has run out of words and is finding it difficult to see the monitor due to mist in my eyes from the tears.

We do indeed thank you sweet furiend for all the lovely memories.  Until we meet again.

Love Always,

Molly and my Mom

AROOOO! I bark and I howl to show how sad I am to see you leave, Hattie. But I thank you, Hattie and Mom for being long time, TRUE to the core, doggie loving Friends!
Molly said it all in this Blog, and I totally agree.

I'm sorry to read your friend Hattie and her Mom have decided to move in another direction you have them in your heart and mind's eye though. Sounds like you had very special memories in the short time you knew Hattie. I know you will miss her. Now that being said at least Hattie told you. We have had friends just disappear leaving us wondering what happened and if they are ok.
Hugs and Happy Mother's Day to your sweet mom aka door opener
Madi your bfff

We have been lucky enough to know Hattie for close to ten years. She spent most of her time in small, tight knit groups, and she was the center of those groups. Such wit, such charm. A truly beautiful dog. We hope she will still bark at us now and then. If you did not know her you did miss something very special

We didn't know Hattie but it sure is sad when friends leave and the heart hurts for quite a bit. Hugs from all of us dear Molly.

I know Hattie Mae personally, visiting her and her family several years ago. She is the most wonderful and lovable girl although she was kind of persistent when I met her. She was determined to sit on my husband’s lap no matter what, and she got her way.

Having have pets through most of my life, I sympathize with Hattie Mae’s mom and feel for her to see her doggy daughter struggle with old age. I hope, though, with all my heart, she reconsiders and stays on the social network where everybody will miss her terribly if she leaves.

We are sad to say we never meet Hattie and her Mom, they sound wonderful and we are very sad we never got a chance to meet them. You were so lucky that you had a chance to know them if only for a short while.

Always sad to see someone leave a circle. "It doesn't take long to know you've met an angel." So true!

Your Pals,

I, MacDougal, was never fortunate enough to belong to Hattie Mae's innter circle even though I knew her for almost ten years. Hence, I always just admired her from afar. And admire her I did, with a little lust interspersed occasionally. That's what's so special about Hattie Mae that even if you're not a pup worshiping at her feet you always felt accepted by her. Her heart is bigger than the State of Texas, heck, bigger than the whole of USA. Love you Hattie.
