Yeah, it finally happened. This morning we had to take Izzi for the final
trip to the vet. She had been ill for two or three weeks, and had had a
steroid injection to perk her up, but she had hyperthyroidism, cardiac
myopathy (sp?) and a pretty bad heart murmur. Yesterday evening she refused
her supper, and this morning she didn't want cuddles, food, or water. We
took her to the vets, knowing that the end had come. She was almost
seventeen (we'd had her since she was eighteen months old) She's buried now,
in the back garden, next to Fenda. They were together for over fifteen
years, and will never be parted again. Izzi outlived her old companion by
only three months.

It feels like the end of an era. We only have Ripley now, fat stupid cat
that he is. We know that in a month or so, we'll go to Cats Protection
and find another cat to join the family, but for now we just want to
remember Izzi and Fenda.

Why do you call him "fat and stupid?" Did you not give him the
attention you gave the other cqts?

Sincere condolences on your loss of Izzi (and Fenda) may all your memories
of them be happy ones.

I know how sad you must be feeling Jeanette, I am so sorry.

I feel for you. I plan to get a second cat to keep Cinders company,
now that Katie is gone, but am waiting until I find a new job.

Oh no. I was sad to see this. I know the time must come but I grieve with
you. It is hard. Goodbye Izzi

I think you're doing the right thing, you need to be sure before you bring
another cat into the family.

I am so sorry, Jeanette. Purrs for Izzi on her journey to the Bridge,
and healing heart purrs for you.
