I had to say good buy to my 14 year old kitty, Maggie, this last Friday. We had been through a lot together, many moves, marrage and divorce, getting lost and found a couple of time, and finally living the life as a tugboat cat in Seattle. I am greatful that that on our last night she came over to me and layed over my heart and just purred.
Making the decision was one of the hardest I have ever had to make. Time, thyroide disese, kidney problems,weight loss, and hypertension had taken their toll. My vet was wounderful and allowed me to be with her to the very end.
It is so hard to know when the quality of life takes a dip and to not be selfish in my want to not say good by. And yet I feel so relieved that she is not in pain any more. And now my life is missing something very special.
