Flo'ing Along

I'm so sorry Flo! Make time you give yourself time to grieve

A little bit of sad news.....dear little Fluff has been put to sleep. She hasn't been herself for a few weeks now, and we noticed that she was really light weight, not eating, and sleeping a lot. This morning when I got up it was as much as she could do to raise her little head. So Ian and I decided that it might be time. We know she was at least 14-15. Anyway Ian phoned the vet and took her in to check her over and she said that her kidneys were very small and hard, she'd lost one and a half pounds over the past three weeks and her spleen was enlarged. She was a very poorly little soul. Anyway I hope she's in pussy heaven now. All the time we had her she had never extended a claw in nastiness and was the most loving and beautiful little cat we've ever had.

Aw Flo, I'm so sorry for your loss lovely. RIP Fluff. She'll be at Rainbow Bridge waiting for you... It sounds like you've done the kindest thing possible for her.

I am so so sorry Flo. The loss of a furbaby is always a heartbreak. Sounds like you did the best for her and she went peacefully. Sending lots of love. Xx

Aww, thanks all ..your comments mean a lot. It's always hard to make a decision to end the life of a furry member of the family. I could have made excuses and played down her condition and made excuses not to put her to sleep, but then I'd have been doing it for me not for her. It would have been wrong to prolong her suffering. Anyway......I can smell lamb chops! Tonight I've decided we're having syrup sponge and custard for pud...the almost perfect comfort food..blow the calories. Have a nice evening allxxx

[Suzi]

I completely agree about knowing when it's time. I wish we had the same option for people tbh..

Pud sounds delicious! Nom!

Oh hunni, I’m so sorry. But you’re right, it has to be a decision made for them, not us. - hard as that is
