    i had to put Willow to sleep. i took her to the 24 hour vet cause she seemed to be getting worse.  Doctor said it may have been her spleen (they are gonna do an autopsy).  Was gonna take to anppther vet for a second opinion but them she just seemed to get worse. Hardest decision in my life.  Rest easy Willow  :cry:

    She was just beautiful.  I'm so very sorry, but know you did right by her - and I'm sure that was from day one.

    Best of thoughts.

    thanks everyone. 

    she had an enlarged spleen and a tumor/blood vessel burst.  Probably had cancer.  :disappointed:

    i realized that she was a fighter.  When I got her, her foster parents found her in a barn so she had to fight off a lot there.  Then fight off apparently cancer which i had no clue she had, neither did my vet.  And when one of her blood vessels burst she (I would like to think) fought it until the very end.  She actually came to me when i got home and i think wanted to eat but just couldn't.  With an enlarged spleen and a blood vessel bursting that must have been very painful and it wasn't until about an hour later that she was "crying" in pain I think.  No way she would have made it through the night. Just glad she came into my life, obviously gonna miss her terribly though.

    I’ve told people that I think I’ll need to be institutionalized when Molly dies. I don’t think that I’m exaggerating.

    Handsome and badass looking fellas!

    My sweet pea woke up earlier from a deep sleep and it hit me (yet again) how she's getting older - much like me (I'm gettin' older too).

    Bit of drool and that "huh? what's going on?" thing.  Oh my furry sister, I hear ya!

    Beautiful how she can go from that to hopped up and scooting herself around here.

    Love this girl of ours.

    Let me guess... Juniper owns every piece of furniture in your home and uses said furniture as Juniper feels; however, for the time being, the chair by the fireplace is Juniper's 'go to' spot for daytime naps.

    Am I at least 77% correct?
