Good hider!


I had to put Freckles down today :( Her liver had stopped working. I knew she wasn't doing well yesterday when I had to force feed her with a syringe and she was all wobbling when trying to walk. She slept next to me last night, which she hasn't done since she started feeling sick...I think she knew it was the end. She went her whole 16 years being spoiled and healthy...she was never sick up until a few weeks ago, so I'm grateful for that. She was my fierce little protector (and tormentor). I never met a cat with that kind of personality. Fuck that was hard :(

:( pretty sweet that she slept next to you last night.

My cats sometimes sleep with me not really next to me though except one time when I was sick one of my cats slept right next to me.

She used to love to sleep real close to me, except for the past few weeks when she was sick. During that time she would jump up next to me until I fell asleep and then she would go back to her hiding spot. Sometimes she would come back in the morning when she heard my alarm go off almost so I would think she had been there the whole time Last night I knew she was really declining and I asked her to stay the whole night and she did We spoke the same language

I think they know when you're sick or upset and they will do that to comfort you. That's sweet.

mfc2006

sorry to hear that!

Sorry to hear this too CBG, sounds like you did the nicest thing though.

comebackgirl

Thanks mfc and LouLou. I think it was the right thing to do. She deteriorated so much from the morning to the afternoon...she was really pathetic by the time the doctor saw her :( I'm glad I could be with her as she passed...she had her little head tucked into my arm. The hardest part was leaving her afterwards I knew she wasn't "there" anymore...but it just felt wrong to leave. It's hard not knowing what she felt or what she understood. Ok I'm gonna stop now

Just now seeing this, so sorry for your loss :( You are were the best friend to her and you were strong enough to make the right choice. Even remembering the times I have had to walk out of a vet's office empty handed, with maybe just a leash and collar, or an empty carrier still makes me cry. She'll be waiting for you, patiently, across the Rainbow Bridge. Hugs!!

Thank you for this. When I think of the life she could have had as a stray...and then consider the life she had by being adopted, it makes it easier.

That's awesome! Though I'm pretty sure if I were to do that for my two cats, they'd just sniff it and then go somewhere else to lie down. :?

Ever since Freckles passed, my other kitty (Sweet Pea) has gotten really lonely when we go outside...sitting by the door and meowing. So I got her a harness so she can go outside with me and nap and bird watch She's always been part puppy at heart, unlike Freckles who was pure cat. My neighbors are looking at me funny, but she seems to love it :geek:

:( Get her a playmate? or is that too soon?

I was thinking of getting her a playmate..but I'm not ready for that...I think it might be a while considering I burst into tears at dinner last night :oops: If she continues to seem really lonely I might have to consider it...definitely an older hard-to-adopt kitty that loves other cats. I had Sweet Pea first, and got Freckles to be a playmate for her...too bad that Freckles wasn't really the playmate type My mom has a cat with a similar personality and I'm hoping she might let me borrow him for a little while if necessary.

i'm not sure if i would be ready for another cat that quick either. It would probably take awhile for me.

She's up for adoption if you are near Jackson, Mississippi.

Thanks redrock. I got her ashes yesterday. It was a crazy work day so I walked in there not thinking much of it, walked out the door and burst into tears. Then I got home and read the card they sent with it and burst into tears again. I knew it would be hard...but I didn't think it would be this hard :(

Lying around? These things are so expensive. 12 cost anywhere from $44 to $60. It's absurd for some cardboard!
