Debbie,

I am so sorry that you lost your last baby. I know the pain and it

is as real as any grieving there is.

I hope you feel better really soon.

food poisoning and it tore me apart. I got him to the after hours emergency

clinic in ton (an hour away) and he coded on the table there.

life without any of them. (((Hugs))) to you - maybe its time to find a

Deebs, and group;

I am so sorry Debbie and for your loss, pets are like family

members. My heart goes out to you Deebs and laura. We have a siamese

cat name t. She is 13 years old. She is a rescue cat. We love

her so much. I was wondering how long cats live. 17 years is a long

time. How was Nicky doing tward the end. And how long was he/she

sick? t is doing ok. She is a little overweight but you would

not tell she is 13 years old.

WE just got another rescue cat. kloey was left on the side walk with

her siblings. To young even to be taken from her mother. Kloey is

doing fine and has doubled in weight since we got her. We had kloey

for about 2 weeks now. I love animails.

I believe animails go to heaven. Cause in the bible it says the

animals on earth were made after the animails in heaven. Check it

in Genisis. There is plenty of room in heaven. Now dont worry I

doubt pestilence go to heaven. I hope not or it would not be

heaven.

I am doing pretty good. Got down to 63. Started out with 105 posts.

Its only been an hour. I wait to answer some post cause someone may

answer questions for me. I couldnt wait to answer this one. I feel

for those who lose a pet. We get so close to our pets. They become

family.

gentle hugs everyone

I am so sorry, I know how you feel.I just picked up my cats ashes

from the vets after having to put him to sleep.He became very sick

very quick and he was 10.I have a 16 year old cat that has kidney

failure, but I swear he will live forever.When Sniggles died, it was

unexpected.And to top it off, after I picked him up, I stopped at my

boyfriends office where he works and his " lovely " mom owns.When I

walked in with my little box , she said yuk, thats disgusting and all

kinds of comments.I mean , lets have some sensitivity here, I m still

grieving him.I was soo upset, went home and just bawled.Some people

just dont have tact.Anyway, hang in there and you are not alone.

((((Hugs))))), please accept my deepest sympathy Debbie.

I have 2 hairy children, Macey (Kelpie X) & Bonnie (Staffy) & some days

I just want to wrap them up in cotton wool Then I image how that

would look & it never fails to make me smile. They help me through

each day , lift my spirits, make me laugh & give me unlimited

unconditional love.

I'm sorry for your loss (((hugs)))

Thank you Heidi in RA and R. I am very sorry for your loss of

Thank you Clora.

Nicky was a male and lived to be close to 18 years old. He became

very frail in the end and couldn't do things so we had to put him to

sleep. It was a tough decision. Taffy was overweight when she died

recently, too. She did have kidney disease also.

Debbie,

My lab passed away seven years ago. He had cancer, and the doc could

do no more for him. He was my rock, it was like losing my child. I

have another lab now, she was rescued from a puppy mill. We've had

her a little over a year now. She was a puppy maker, and no more, we

had her spayed, soon as we got her. She is a wonderful dog, she is in

the house, and goes wherever I go. God sent her to me, when I needed

her the most. You will be able to love another one pet again, it just

takes a little time. There are so many little ones that need us. You

take care, and know I am thinking about you, Tawny

[Guest guest]

I had a cat who lived to be 20 before the Cancer caused her to have to be

put to sleep. She actually told me she wanted to go to the vet. I came

home from work and saw she was bleeding from the mouth. I saw a tooth on

the counter. She could not eat. The next AM I put the cat carrier on the

counter and she walked into it. I never have had a cat do that before. She

was my daughters cat so I was hoping I could keep her going until Angie came

for another visit. It was not to be though. The vet said he had never seen

a cat that opened her mouth and let him examine her mouth before. He was

expecting to have to tranquilize her. He called and told me to come in and

I saw the cancer growing in her mouth. She had a lot of urinary track

infections towards the end so her not eating I thought was that again and

was planning to take her to the vet again.

I have all rescue cats. Two were bottle fed, the rest were older.

Cats will let you know..I lost my Sophie when she was 17.

She was truly a " perfect " cat for 17 years. At the end when she became

sick, she stopped eating. She became so weak & I had an IV at home and

would insert the needle into the back of her neck and let the IV drip for 5

minutes just to get her some hydration. At the vet's office, they tried

force feeding her and the vet told me that even in her weakened state, she

was " defiant " and clamped her mouth closed and pulled back. He said, she's

trying to tell us something. It was then that I had to let her go.

When I had her at home during the illness, I was laying in bed one night and

she came and laid on my chest with her face right to mine - she had never

done that before. I believe she was saying goodbye to me. I am crying as I

write this and that was over 3 years ago. I loved her and still miss her.

They could find nothing wrong with her and the vet said she died of old age.

Three months after Sophie passed, I adopted Pearl. She was an adult cat in

a local no-kill shelter and I knew she would be passed over for the cuter

kittens. She is such a joy and I love her dearly. She didn't replace

Sophie in my heart, but she has a place there as well.

To all who have lost pets..remember that they enriched your life far more

than anyone imagines. I hope that you find a place in your heart for new

friends over the years.

OMG Dorthy, I am about to cry too. My juliet is 13 years old. THanks

for sharing that with us. I don't know what I will do when its time

for Juley to go. Maybe I won't wait as long as you did. You must of

loved her very much to keep her that long. I just got a rescue

kitten a few weeks ago. ANd she is like an unruly 2 year old.

don't like her at all. But at least julie (a cat) has quit

growling at kloey (the kitten). Kloey follows everywhere.

kloey stays about a foot away cause julie beat her up a few weeks

ago. We don't allow them together unless one of us is with them.

I believe when someone gets so old they quit eating, its their body

shutting down, Time to go to heaven. I don't believe we should put

our elderly to sleep. But i do believe in the living will, as not to

keep our bodies alive. I use to hate the living will. Now that I am

aging I have a change of mind haaaaaaa. No funny but funny.

I love my cat t like she was a person. She is the first animail

I got close to since my dog cowboy died when I was ten. I swore I

would never get close to an animail again. My family has had pets I

would avoid. It's to late. I love all their pets lol. yes we have

had many pets but I didnt get close to them. One can't help but to

eventually love them no matter how much they avoid them.

Clora, maybe I held on with Sophie even though I knew it was time.

Unfortunately, we try to protect ourselves from the hurt of a loss of a pet

and sometimes forget about the pet. I was so distraught about so many

things in my life and depended on her as my " friend " for so many

years....one day, I was crying and I said to her, " Please don't leave me "

and that was selfish.

It was her time. She lived a very happy, long life and I treasured her and

the gifts she gave to me.

If this link works, you can see my Pearl on the Last Hope website with my

letter: http://www.lasthopeanimalrescue.org/letters.htm and scroll down to

the next to last letter dated 4/12/06.

Enjoy the new kitten..if you can keep up with her! I'm sure that both your

cats will be fine friends once they set their boundaries with one another.

Who is to say how long to hold on, not me. Sophie came to you in the

end, Omg i am about to cry. What a sad story. Your my hero Dorothy

to love a cat like that. I feel that way about my .

I love animails so much I cant even watch animail planet on tv. THe

show where they show you animails being abused. People that abuse

animails like that should go to jail as if they were hurting people.

I feel that way anyway.

God bless you dorothy. I am so sad for your loss i am weeping some

tears my eyes are burning. How you suffered to lose your sophie. You

gave her a wonderful life, just keep remembeing that. I put sophies

website on my book mark. So beautiful.

gentle sweet kind hugs

Clora

[Guest guest]

You're very sweet, Clora. I'm NO hero, believe me! Sophie was a dear

friend and she took care of me just as I took care of her.

I also don't watch Animal Planet for the same reason and if I hear a news

report on TV, I mute the sound and walk out of the room. I do what I can to

support Last Hope Animal Rescue where I adopted Pearl. I've often though of

doing volunteer work, but I know that I would be heartbroken every single

day. I donate household goods every time they have a flea market and am

selling raffle tickets for their next raffle so I do what I can without

becoming too close to the animals..it's all too sad for me to deal with and

I admire the volunteers for their strength..they are truly angels on earth.

I urge anyone who wants a pet to please go to the local shelter and save the

life of an animal - there are so many older cats and dogs that remain

homeless year after year. If you don't have a pet, you can't imagine the

joy they can bring into your life..and it's good for your health :-)

Who is to say how long to hold on, not me. Sophie came to you in the

end, Omg i am about to cry. What a sad story. Your my hero Dorothy

to love a cat like that. I feel that way about my .

I love animails so much I cant even watch animail planet on tv. THe

show where they show you animails being abused. People that abuse

animails like that should go to jail as if they were hurting people.

I feel that way anyway.

God bless you dorothy. I am so sad for your loss i am weeping some

tears my eyes are burning. How you suffered to lose your sophie. You

gave her a wonderful life, just keep remembeing that. I put sophies

website on my book mark. So beautiful.

gentle sweet kind hugs

I am so sorry Dorothy I didnt mean to offend you. The more I hear

from you the more I love you. I may say no more pets for me, we

would always have a few pets. At least untill we can find a good

homes for them. Our house must say leave your pet on our steps next

to the address haaaaa.

Last year this little grey cat showed up and we begin to feed him.

IT GOT cold so we put a box and a heating pad out for him. About 4

months ago we got his shots and fixed. My husband named him Smokey

lol. I don't want any pets but we have four haaaaaaa.

We have found homes for about 20 cats and dogs in the last year. The

kitten now I have (kloey) was left with a litter in front of the gas

station store. We found homes for them and kept kloey haaaaaaaaa.

We live in a small town and the aminail league here we know

personally. These people that put aminails in harms way need to be

caught and whipped. I have taken animails to the pound cause of a

disease in the old neighborhood I was in. Nobody would claim them.

We just moved into this house about 2 months ago and my husband has

been feeding 2 cats that looked poorly. I have begged him to take

them to the pound. I think the previous owners left them. Why else

would they hang at our stepS? Only met one neighbor so far. With the

RA I don't do much socialising. THe cats look much better, cliff is

calling them Bob and Bill haaaaaaaa. Cliff is my hubby.

Yes people we need to look out for these domestic animails. My best

friends are walking on four feet haaaaaaa. They love us no matter

what someone else has done to them. I am sorry for going on about

this. I couldnt stop my self lol.

gentle hugs
