Saying goodbye to another cat...
We had to say goodbye today to our dear Perseus... (Kidney failure)
He came into our lives nearly 19 years ago already maybe 6 months to a year old... so he had a wonderful full life here with us. He and Pandora got along so well. When she died, he started going downhill and his kidney disease was discovered. We tried a couple of treatments for him but his health failed quickly this last couple of weeks. We did not want him to suffer any more so we brought him to the vet today and said our goodbyes. He will be buried outside next to Pandora in our flower garden.
Rest in Peace dear wonderful Percy.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Cats are such special family members. Rest in Peace, Percy.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry. :-( It's so hard when they leave.
ReplyDeleteHe had a butterfly on his head! While looking at him I realized I haven't seen pics of all of them. Take a few for when you come down next weekend.
So, so sorry. I do understand your sorrow. Pets become part of the family and the house just feels empty when they are gone. Prays sent your way.
ReplyDeleteI am so very sorry for your enormous loss, especially two so close together. Hope this helps.
ReplyDeleteJust this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....
