Hi Jan, I seem to believe every passing is different because I was with my first cat as she passed away and just like your Jimmy she slowly closed her eyes as the vet administed the drug. My second kitty died here in the house and she NEVER closed her eyes. We rushed her to the vet and even they...

Hello .. I have not been here for awhile but I know this is a wonderful site with many cat lovers who are very well informed. Two weeks ago ,today , I had to put my dear cat Buzz down . He was one month shy of 16 years old. He was losing weight but he was always hungry !! He also stopped...

I now feel less alone in my sorrow. My heart is heavy with grief for every kitty that passes. I am so sorry for all of you .. It is so sad to lose a beloved pet no matter what their age. AND yes life is so very unpredictable which is why we should cherish every day we have with both our...

Thanks hootiecat and I wish your kitties a long healthy life

Back in 1985 my younger son (then 11 years old) saw a sign at the local convinence store that said "free kittens" so he road his bike to the address,picked Cookie out of a litter of 4 and road home on his bike with he in tow.... He was given a small bag of food and was told she "gets along with...

Thanks to all who responded. I know it sounds crazy but I am so lost without her here. She would even sit in my lap when I was on the computer and as I typed I think she thought I was petting her !!! Actually, she was so very friendly she would sit in anyones lap..even total strangers !!! She...

Thank you for your kind words..It means a lot to me

It is with great sadness that I write as today my almost 19 year old cat died. She was my everything and it is almost ironic that she passed away on Valentines day. We knew she was getting sicker and sicker so we called the vet this morning and she was coming to our home at 12:30 (to check...

This is a wonderful site and I wish I had more time to visit but my computer time is limited. I baby sit my 7 month old grandson and he does keep me very busy....... One good thing is ,he was a BIG help (even though he did not know it) because all I had to do was see his smiling face and I would...

Thanks !!! I am a new computer user and I appreciate your help !!!

ANYONE have an answer for me as to WHY my cat could not urinate??? The vet really did not explain it very well she just told me that my cat was suffering from kidney failure. Does that mean her kidneys stopped working?? AND does anyone know WHY???????? I am so sad and worried because I have two...

Thanks to everyone that responded !!! I am so grateful and my mind is a little more relieved knowing that we did the "right thing" but it is still so difficult not having her here. I DO feel better knowing that Toonces is in your thoughts and I hope she is at the Bridge enjoying the warm...

Yesterday was one of the saddest days of my life as it was the last day of my beloved Toonces. She was only 12 years old but was in total kidney failure . She was put on I.V. fluids and even given lasix twice but she did not urinate at all and she started building up fluids in her body ,so much...
