Watson is a calm, wise, and deeply loyal cat who has spent his entire life within one loving family. For the past two years, he has been the constant companion of his person, a hospice patient who welcomed him into her life after her husband passed away. Their bond has been a source of comfort and compassion every single day.

Due to an upcoming move to a nursing home, his person can no longer keep him, and her greatest wish is for Watson to find a safe, peaceful home where he can give joy to another and enjoy their golden years together. Watson would thrive in a calm home with someone who appreciates the sweetness of an older companion.

About Watson
• 17-year-old neutered male
• Exceptionally calm and gentle
• Wonderful with children – he slips away to a quiet spot if things get too lively
• Comfortable around other cats
• A loyal, steady presence who loves being near his person

Please contact the family at 479-841-0530 to inquire.

Caregiving comes from a place of deep love—but it can also be exhausting, overwhelming, and lonely at times.

Our Personal Care services are here to support both the person you love and you. Whether it’s help with cooking, bathing, dressing, light housekeeping, or simply having a compassionate presence in the home, our caregivers step in with kindness, respect, and heart.

Sometimes what caregivers need most is a moment to breathe—time to rest, run errands, or just be a daughter, son, spouse, or friend again. Personal Care offers that gentle relief, knowing your loved one is safe, cared for, and treated with dignity.

You don’t have to do this alone. We’re honored to walk alongside you and help carry the weight, even just a little. Call us today at 479-334-3319 or visit our website for more information www.circleoflifecare.org.

Circle of Life provides expert, compassionate care for individuals and families facing health challenges or serious illness. With respect and personalized support, our team walks alongside those we serve, offering comfort and guidance every step of the way.

We were honored to welcome the Simmons Foods Chaplains into our hospice home today. Their visit meant so much to our team and we are grateful for the opportunityto collaborate.

Thank you for taking the time to be with us, for listening, for caring, and for the quiet work you do every day to support individuals and families across our community. Your presence is a reminder of how powerful compassion and connection can be, and we are grateful for the partnership and the heart you bring to those you serve.

UPDATE: YOUR RESPONSE HAS BEEN SO GENEROUS! THANK YOU! We’re fortunate to have enough vases at this time. Thank you for your continued support and for always thinking of our patients and families.

VASES NEEDED: Sometimes it’s the simplest things that mean the most.

Each week, Whole Foods in Fayetteville donates fresh flowers for our hospice patients. Those flowers often sit by a bedside, are held in quiet moments, or bring a small sense of peace during a really hard time.

Right now, we’re short on vases. If you have one or two tucked away in a cabinet that you no longer need, they could make a real difference for someone.

Vases can be dropped off at our Bentonville or Springdale locations.

Thank you for helping us care for people in such a simple and meaningful way.

At Circle of Life, we recognize the deep cultural and emotional significance Mariachi music holds within the Hispanic community. Recently, Mariachi Joya Azteca of NW Arkansas visited a patient and their family at our hospice home, filling the space with familiar melodies that brought comfort, peace, and connection. We are grateful for the power of music to honor culture, uplift the spirit, and support families when it matters most.

One of the greatest honors we have is helping make meaningful moments possible for the patients we serve.

Recently, one of our patients, Tom, shared a simple but powerful wish — to fly one more time in a single-engine Cessna plane. With the help of our incredible community, that wish became a reality.

Special thanks to Legends Air Center at Thaden Field in Bentonville, along with our wonderful pilot, for making this unforgettable experience possible. We are also grateful to Good Shepherd Transportation for providing a smooth and caring ride to the airfield. We always appreciate our Angels Paying It Forward for providing the thoughtful support and generosity that made this wish a reality.

As a Navy veteran and former pilot, Tom was surrounded by family, fellow veterans, and Circle of Life staff, making the day truly unforgettable. It was a beautiful celebration filled with joy.

Thank you to everyone who helped Tom fly the friendly skies.
