I was touched by how you set up a bed on the floor to be with Siwa. Julie did the same when she was losing Samantha. I nursed our Tigger a long time and worried if I'd know when. Unfortunately it was a bad death for him...at the vets...and I wish I'd had the foresight to do something differently. It is amazing the bond we have with animals...and one reason why frankly I am not ready to have another. We make what people have called "crazy" commitments to our animals and suffer greatly when they pass. It's nice to hear of a like minded soul. Betty Dear Trish,
Belated condolences. I was touched by how you set up a bed
on the floor to be with Siwa. Julie did the same when
she was losing Samantha. I nursed our Tigger a long time
and worried if I’d know when. Unfortunately it was a bad
death for him…at the vets…and I wish I’d had the foresight
to do something differently. It is amazing the bond we have
with animals…and one reason why frankly I am not ready to
have another. We make what people have called “crazy” commitments
to our animals and suffer greatly when they pass.
It’s nice to hear of a like minded soul.
Betty

It brought back so many memories of when I had to put my Chaz down. That was horrible, being the first time I had ever had to put a pet down. For weeks afterward, I would walk in the door and suddenly burst into tears because he hadn't greeted me. I know you will miss your dear friend. I am so sorry for your loss. Oh, this one made me cry.

I'm from the WW mailing list - I have several WW blogs in my reader, and saw this today. I'm so sorry to hear about Siwa. We had to euthanize one of our cats about two years ago now. She was 17 and I believe she finally had kidney failure. I just wanted to let you know this post brought tears to my eyes. I hope the end was peaceful. Take care. Kim Hi, Trish.
