Goodbye Boo

post #1 of 25
Thread Starter 
Bear with me, I'm new to the Rainbow Bridge...

Boo passed away at the vet's office around 10:15am. He has struggled with being in an outhouse sized backyard breeder's housing, he struggled with bonding with me at first, he struggled with nearly hanging himself at the neck for being so jumpy outside when we first started going when he was 6 months.

Then he fought off the struvite crystals, and the P/U surgery, and the dental, but finally somehow the CRF got a hold of him and Boo had no more fight left in him. So I let him go. He had dropped to 4 pounds. He got up to 12 pounds once when he was healthy. One vet called him "Thrasher" I believe.

Boo was a well mannered cat in all aspects, he didn't want to drop food on the carpet, he didn't want to pee outside of the pan, he didn't want his feet wet with pee nor water and he did not appreciate baths, because when he groomed himself, he groomed himself well. He tried using the toilet just like we did. He drank out of glasses and never out of bowls. He never climbed on furniture unless fleas were getting him on the ground. Never had a problem with him scratching on anything but his scratching stick.

He was bold, fierce, and so sweet... my heart breaks as I put away his things and wonder how I'm going to go on, selfishly, when I get home there will be no one there to greet me in the window or at the door, or begging to go outside, or wanting water from the tub.

I cannot remember what month he was born, but he was 13.5 years old so around 1997, and probably hitting 14 this month. So, 1997-2010.

He always wanted to be near me. In the room with me, around me, he would find me. I am hoping for a dream where he comes to me and tells me he found the bridge and all is well. I told him to go find my Daddy too.

What a cat, is all I can say. My heart is breaking. Boo, you were the toughest cat I've ever met. You never backed down from anything and you weren't scared to even fight a big strong man back when. I remember that. And I will remember you always. Aaaaaaaah, I love you so much. My baby.

Rest in peace.

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Boo. You took such good care of him, and your tribute to him made me cry so much.

He's playing at the bridge now, healthy and happy - happy for the love that you gave him.

What a kitty your Boo was. I am sure all my fur kids up there will take him under their wings.

God bless Boo and you for giving him the best of the best all these years.

Oh my heart dropped like a rock when I saw the title on the front page when first logging on to the forums. I was hoping beyond hope....

Sweetie, I am SO sorry! I know your heart is falling to pieces right now. You and Boo fought a good fight, and he was SUCH a love and such a trooper. He had a wonderful life with you, and... just... I'm stumbling over my words. Just know I'm thinking of you and Boo. I'm sure he's found Daddy over the bridge, and the two of them are sending heaps of love your way.

Boo

Boo you were so loved, and loved so much. By your mama and by many of us here. Your mama loved you so much she couldn't bear to see you suffer, so she gave you the final kindness.

I know how much it hurts, Snickerdoodle. I hope Chickster can offer you some tender loving care and comfort.

Love and Hugs

I am not even going to pretend that I have the right words... my heart is broken for you.

He is finally at peace, you did everything you possibly could. He knew you cared, he felt that love. And once he gave up, you did what was right. Still, my heart breaks for you and Chickster. If you just need to talk, drop me a PM hun.



RIP Booboo kitty, you fought a hard fight.

We all hate visiting the Bridge forum, but sometimes it is good to write about our lost kitties. I am so sorry Boo lost his fight, he was as strong as he could be. May you find strength to deal with his loss.

I'm so sorry to hear about Boo.
I was following his story in the other forum and was really pulling for you. He was a darling cat and you certainly did everything in your power for him.
R.I.P Boo
