It's been a year

One year ago today, my snuggle bum lost his life due to kidney failure. He had just turned 16 year old and was getting sicker and more fragile. I had to make to hardest decision of my life to end his pain and suffering and I will never forget my last few moments with my baby boy, Zetsy. He snuggled his face into my neck and gave me kisses; kind of saying thanks for a wonderful 16 years. My promise to him was to take better care of his brother Domi as he is also aging. I love you with all my heart baby and I will never forget our times together. When I was sick, you snuggled and when I was sad, you kissed me and never left my side. You helped me love like I have never loved before and I will never forget what you taught me. Hope you're having fun playing with other kitties over the rainbow baby. See you soon.

What a beautiful little man Zetsy was......your words are a beautiful memorial.  You took his pain and made it your own and by doing that, you gave him the greatest reward for all the unconditional love he gave you.  Your life is all that much richer for having had him in it for so long.  Bless you, Adriana.  Know that all who read your words will now know who Zetsy was and will remember him in their own way, even if just for a few moments.

....and, yes, Zetsy is having a BALL playing with all his new friends over the Rainbow Bridge.

That's a wonderful tribute to Zetsy and shows how he lives on in your heart.

Oh, sweet boy.  That's such a nice tribute to his memory.  

Thank you so much everyone for your kind words. My heart aches for my baby but I know he is no longer in pain or discomfort. He is happy and playing. He visits me every night in my dreams.

I, too, just had that painful anniversary, sometimes it seems so long ago and other times like yesterday. It takes a long time to mend a broken heart when they leave. I'm so glad you have Domi to love and take care of, it helps to take the mind off of the one who is gone. Zetsy is safe and warm and waiting at the Rainbow Bridge, he'll forever have the love you two shared in his heart. Bless you for loving so much. RIP beautiful Zetsy!

Thank you so much. The grieving never seems to stop and go away. I will never forget that time a year ago; it was very hard for me. But you are right and I am very lucky to have Domi here with me to keep me happy and Zetsy with us both. It would be dreadful to come home to an empty house. Domi helped me heal and I helped him as I know he missed his brother dearly. 

Blessing to you.  

 Thank you.

Thank you Laura. What you said abot taking his pain from him really helps me see that what I did was selfless. I still feel a huge amount of guilt for putting him to sleep, but that helps me alot. Thank you,

Beautiful Zetsy

Such sweet words, feelings, and memories of your precious boy. Thank you for sharing him with us. 

What a special bond you have with your sweet boy, Zetsy. He will live forever in your heart.
