You wrote english in the elder futhark, tediously or with some letter by letter translation tool?

Looks like this is a bit of a rabbit hole. https://wetnosespetsitting.com/coping-with-the-loss-of-a-pet/ https://wetnosespetsitting.com/coping-with-the-loss-of-a-pet... Has a copy of this, but it was attributed to a reddit post https://old.reddit.com/r/cats/comments/hmyago/rest_in_peace_francie_my_cat_passed_away_this/fx877wl/ https://old.reddit.com/r/cats/comments/hmyago/rest_in_peace_... But the runes were not on that post. Searching the runes (which kind of sounds badass) led to https://imgur.com/gallery/rest-easy-boy-4OYHNTn https://imgur.com/gallery/rest-easy-boy-4OYHNTn from May, 2022 https://www.instagram.com/kaitbernhardt/p/CUvyLLEMaNN/ https://www.instagram.com/kaitbernhardt/p/CUvyLLEMaNN/ from October 2021 But the trail seems to go cold there. The lore seems to suggest that it originated on Reddit but it probably got lost in the purge when Reddit exiled non-official clients.

  Someone posted it to me when my cat passed and I saved it because I thought it was lovely.

Are the runes used on the common /r/cats copy pasta accurate? https://www.reddit.com/r/NoStupidQuestions/comments/kfeq3m/are_the_runes_used_on_the_common_rcats_copy_pasta/ https://www.reddit.com/r/NoStupidQuestions/comments/kfeq3m/a... TLDR: Yes Does anyone know what kind of runes these are? I mean, I know they're norse, but are there different kinds of norse runes? I've had hard time figuring that out. Furthermore, are the runes accurate to the English translation below? yes, the runes and the translation seem to match. runes were not only used for norse. english also used runes before the latin alphabet arrived
