My cat just had to be put down.
It's been a long road- these last 2 weeks.

He just had too many problems-advanced diseases that all flared up after his blood sugar went way out of wack a couple of weeks ago and he went into Diabetic Ketoacidosis...

Perhaps there was some cancer there too- we'll never know. He was the best cat. Lapcat, sweet as can be.

Watch over us all, Madison. I'll always love you.

2. More painful to stay in bud than to bloom.
More painful to stay here than to go on. If you want to connect with him where he is now, if you can't, that is, and you want to, just let me know. I have a technique that connects us with the newly departed. They're available for three/ four days before they move out of sight.

3. What a kindness you did for Madison, still it is so hard to let our
pets go.

I hope this video helps.

8. I'm so sorry
My cat has been living with cancer/tumors for over 2 years now. I am always amazed that he is still going strong. I know the day you have experienced will come to me soon either with the tumor taking over or the steroids causing him problems.

It's hard to understand the pain of losing a pet if you've never had one. I'm sorry for your loss.

12. So Sorry For Your Loss
My Aunt Michelle actually called me last night to tell me that her beloved Gizmo had to be put down yesterday. Giz was 15 years old and had developed cancer. He was the friendliest kitty I ever met. He used to sit on my lap and while I scratched behind his ears, he would drool! After he jumped off me, my lap would be soaking wet!

I can understand your loss. Kitties are wonderful pets. If it weren't for the fact that I travel so much for my career, I would have a house full of felines!

Take care........

22. I'm so sorry, rainbowgrrl.
It's a very tough decision, even when it's the only one left.
I've been there,myself.

Madison is with you always. You saved him from a lot of pain
and suffering.

Bless you, dear rainbowgrrl.

I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

:hug:

25. My sympathies
This probably ranks as one of the hardest things you have ever had to do. Losing a loving and loyal friend is among the hardest things any of us have to face. You are in my prayers, ncrainbowgrrl.
