So very sad

My friend and her husband are in Germany teaching for the summer. I just found out that their cat sitter just had to have their 13 year old cat put to sleep this morning. I don't know the details, but just know that Mouse became extremely ill practically overnight and the vet (who I trust completely) suggested that she be allowed to be put out of her misery.

I can't imagine how horrific it must be for my friend to have lost her cherished cat while she was out of the country. How incredibly helpless and lonely she must feel. I sat crying as I wrote an e-mail to her expressing my sorrow and sympathy. I wish I could fly over and give her a hug.

So, please say a prayer for Mouse and for my friend Meg.

Oh Renae, that is so tragic that they could not at least be there for the final goodbye. Hugs to your friend from this household

Oh, I have tears in my eyes... its so sad. I hope your Mouse is in a better place, and sending my deepst sympathy to Meg.

Sending Hugs and Soothing Energy.

Poor kitty, at least it's out of the body causing it so much distress. I'm sure it's spirit is with Meg trying to comfort her.

How very sad for your friend.... That would just break my heart not to be able to say goodbye to my baby....((hugs)) going out to Meg and Mouse too!

How horrible for Meg. She must be devastated. At least she had a responsible kittysitter to do the right thing for Mouse, as hard as it must have been.

That is awful. Hugs for your friend, as I'm sure she needs them now.
