Hey guys, a horrible thing happend to me Last night, I my cat, momma, of eleven years, became very ill, and today I had to have her put to sleep. Needless to say I am rather sad at the moment and just a bit put out with God.

I know things happen and everything dies sooner or later, but this just really bits. I have been expecting it for sometime, but I honest to God didn't expect it so soon.

I just had to post something to help get this hurt off of my chest. Somehowe talking about it does help, a bit.

Thanks for reading, now you should go love on your pets, you never know when it will be the Last time.

Thank you all again. I am still having a hard time believing that she is really gone. It caught up to me today while I was at my mothers. She originally was my Step Fathers cat, but she adopted me about a year after they got her when I stayed on their property while they lived in CA. She was knocked up at the time, and it was mid winter. She was hanging out with me in my Room, as it was the only room in the house that had heat at that time, long story, and I could tell she was about to pop. So I emptied and old box out and put a pear of old Levi’s in it for her. I then picked her up, was promptly hissed at, and set her in the box. She then looked up at me and I could tell that she was truly thankful. That was the beginning of a very long friendship. I had three new kittens in the morning.

I have added a new wish to my somewhat small list of things that I would wish for if I had the power to see them come to pass. Sorry, to details have to be kept confidential, so say the myth, but I think you all know what it might entail.

My heart felt condolences go out to any of you who have lost a pet. Thank you for posting and for saying such nice things.

Well, in the spirit (no pun intended) of levity, before you invoke any spells (smile), watch "Pet Cemetary" again .

LOL, you cheered me up. That was a good one. Thank you for making me laugh Slynky. Intimidator did as well in one of his IM's.

My nephews just broke my old Kenner A-Wing fighter from their old 80's Star Wars toys line. I am hurt again.

I wish to thank you atrocities for your condolence. I just had my Cat put down. For the Last week she wasn't eating and what worried me most she didn't drink from the tap. She would wait at the bathroom and when someone walked by she would lead them into the bathroom and wait for some one to turn on the tap for her. The disturbing part was she still led me, but she then looked at the water running from the tap. She was sort of sniffing the water but it was sort of "Sorry but I just can't do it". My mother is away and I felt guilty that, just perhaps, I was doing things wrong because she had a dirty chin caked with old food. I have been giving her new food and clean water but she wouldn't eat or drink. I finally decided that screw the vet expense I had to find out what was wrong. The vet showed me her tongue was paralysed and said he needed to talk to my mum about giving her an anasthetic. "Ok" I thought " a bit of anasthetic to calm her down so he can have a better look". "Once you talk to my mother about it I'll come back to get her" I said. He said there was no need. "Aha" I thought "overnight observation". While talking to my mother on the phone to tell her the vet wanted to talk, she explained what the anasthetic meant. I am an intelligent person but I am also strange in that I don't make connections very well (my mind is on a different road to normal people. My mother used to say I had no common sense). Apparently she had a stroke. I am not upset, except for my nervous breakdowns I don't have much emotion, and if she couldn't eat or drink then her time was finished. I just walked upstairs though and realised there was no cat around and how empty the house is now. I guess what I will miss most is going to sleep and waking up of a morning with her body sleeping next to my legs.

Edit: sorry, almost forgot. Sorry about your loss as well.
