General Chat

My lovely old boy cat is having to be put to sleep tomorrow morning. Trying not to think about it too deeply for the mo as I don't want to bottle it .......I KNOW it's the best for him.......just makes me feel ill at the thought of not seeing his daft face again after tomorrow :0(

Oh the joys of pet ownership :0(

((((hugs)))) to you and your cat Muffy, it is so hard I know........

xx

Thanks Rose.

I've had him on my lap all evening......but I have to confess I'm finding it hard to look at him knowing what i know.

Poor old soul xx

awww poor you and poor cat ...
im dreading the day when i have to say goodbye to mine ...
hope he goes peacefully xxxx

No more cats for me once this lot have gone Rose.

I can't stand it anymore when they go.

The two girl cats are still quite young........William is the last of the *old crew* who were around and were my babies before I had my babies xx

It's not easy is it? I still miss all of mine and yes, I said "no more" but that didn't work either. Why do we put ourselves through this?

You take care.

Jill

Why indeed !!

I've managed to keep my mind off it pretty much all evening.....but now it's time for bed.........I'm wired.

Thanks Jill xx

Its a hard decision to make but the most kindest thing to do when that time comes. They are part of the family and its upsetting when we loose any animal however big or small. Think of all the happy times....

All I can say to you, Muffy , (having been there myself) is to stay strong and remember what's best for him.

I'll be thinking of you tomorrow morning.

Ooooh Muffy - sending you both a (((((((hug))))))), it is a very hard thing to do I know, but we know it is for the best.

I agree with Mrs G - I said no more two cats ago - I think because I can't be hassled to fill in the cat flap on the back door, I feel I need a cat to go through it!

Be brave.

my cat is 17 and shes a right old frail snail .. and i would never get another one .. when my daughters hampster died .. gos she was devistated , god know what she will be like when we have to say bye bye to our cat ..
thinking of you all tomorrow hun x

Thanks for the support. I have to confess I'm starting to wobble a bit
.........I know I have to go through with it for his sake...he's been a lovely fella........he deserves a dignified ending.

I'm going to float off and try and sleep.

Thanks again x

Dear Muffy

I know how hard it is to say goodbye to a beloved pet.

But he will be at peace.

Very sincere wishes
xx

It's a hard decision to make, Muffy. You do know though that's it's a reward that you give a pet - letting them go with dignity. He deserves that after all the joy he's given you.

Thinking of you Muffy
I know how I felt when I lost my dog

Thinking of you this morning Muffy, I said no more cats a few years ago (12 July 2005) when I lost one of my old boys - after 6 months of an empty house though I was down the cats home for one and then the vet told me about another and now have four 'second hand' ones.

They will never replace my old boy, but even though its hard to imagine you find even more room in your heart in the end.

God saw you getting tired,
And a cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around you,
And whispered, "Come to me."

With tearful eyes I watched you drift.
I watched you fall away.
I couldn't bear to lose you.
I couldn't ask you to stay.

A golden heart stopped beating.
Shining eyes at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove us
that he only takes the best.

Thinking of you.

Thinking of you Muffy.It's a horrible thing to have to do but you know its for the best. Still hurts like h**l though :((

(((( Hugs )))

I do feel for you,It's such a difficult thing to have to do :~((

I know exactly how you feel, our l6 year old cat had to be put to sleep a couple of years ago, but he was not well, and it was the kindest thing. We had him ( and his sister who had died before him) cremated, and their ashes are sprinkled in the garden.
I will be thinking of you today,
Kind regards, Liz
