    Gack! I talked about feelings.
    That's very true. I've gone through both too.

For some reason, still unknown, she developed a blood clot between her heart and her lower body and she could no longer use her legs. I found her after a few minutes of her crying out in pain and noticed her whole back-end wouldn't lift up. I checked her hips and legs for broken bones and found none so I called the hospital and they told me to bring her right in. They said there was too slim of a chance of her getting better with meds and special care considering her feet had already gone cold from lack of blood and most likely her heart would give out soon. So I had to put her to sleep.

    I'm devastated. I can't stop crying which of course sets off my youngest into tears. Very sad day. I don't EVER want to celebrate this holiday again.
    I am really sorry for your loss. Our animals are part of our family .(or me, my babies)
    Just remember that you were with her, she knew.
    I have had to put down 4 of my boxers in the past, and it is really hard, but at least I had the comfort of knowing I was with them and they knew I was there.

    Wow Kooky, that is so sad.

    I don't know whether to laugh or cry at what my 10 yr old did. I was thinking about putting Fresca's bed away, as it's hard looking at it, and when I bent over to pick it up there was a piece of paper in it. I thought it was just a paper that fell off the bookshelf, but it wasn't, my 10 yr old made a note to her.

    R.I.P Fresca
    hand drawn cat face
    10 yr old name - miss you and love you forever
    mom - misses you and can't stop crying
    12 yr old name - robot, not feeling anything it seems
    dad - not robot but isn't showing emotion right now
    ????? - late 2012 (supposed to be birth/death dates)

    Then he put one of the little jingling rolling balls that she loved to play with on top of it. It's the sweetest thing. I'm going to have to leave it there for awhile otherwise he may get mad. I can't believe he did that, he amazes me sometimes.

    It is his way of grieving for her .

    Awwww! That made me cry. My cat Hunter died unexpectedly a few weeks ago. Feeding time really was a hard time for me because I had two cat food bowls and only one cat left. My husband brought home a little fur ball and we named him Gizmo. He uses hunters bowl now. I miss her but Gizmo makes my husband and I feel like new parents again. We marvel at all the adorable things he does.

    Keep the note and toys. Maybe in a special box or something.
