I am so sorry that you have lost Pericles.
Comforting purrs sent from Elisabet and Hugo Katt Exocat skrev i meddelandet ... I'm sorry to report that the power of purr has failed on this occasion :-( Pericles had continued to go downhill since his tests on Thursday, not taking much in (although he managed to force down some cod & salmon as his last meals) or letting much out, hardly moving around and with an increasingly swelling tummy: so swollen that his ribs couldn't be felt even up by his spine. The lab. test results, which were available this morning (5th Feb) clearly indicated FIP (Feline Infectious Peritonitis) and given its obviously large scale I discussed and agreed with TED that euthanasia was required. At 11.30 this morning he passed peacefully to the Bridge with his head cradled in my hands. He didn't seem to mind being fussed over just this once. Meanwhile in the operating theatre a Rottweiler mum was giving birth by Caesarian section to 11 (yes, eleven) puppies, all apparently healthy. So the ebb & flow of life continues. Peri will be buried in my little back garden (yard) under his favourite Hebe bush, where he spent many happy and lazy hours drowsing & waiting for the chance to ambush any neighbour cat daring enough to cross his territory. Bandit & Snowball have sniffed Peri & said whatever goodbyes they can: I'm not sure how much they understand about the concept of death. Rather they will just come to realise that Peri is no longer here, I suspect. I shall have to keep a careful watch on them from now on as their chances of infection are increased. I know there's nothing to be done so will concentrate on ensuring that they don't suffer. I've put a farewell picture of Pericles he http://community.webshots.com/album/94722327kAslef/1 It's the last one on the page. Please feel free to make a Guestbook entry. He got to cyber-meet Sammy yesterday (her face can just barely be seen on the screen beside his right ear, so thanks CN) and proceeded to protect his recently-acquired beloved from the attentions of all comers. I shan't be around much for awhile, I'm afraid, I'll need to come to terms with things in solitude. So here are my thanks for all your sterling companionship and good wishes & purrs over the last 14 month. Continuing even-more-empathetic-than-before purrs to those in need. Gordon, Bandit & Snowball. |

So sorry to hear of Pericles journey to the Bridge, he
had a loving home while he was here, and I'm sure he'll find loving friends at the Bridge but that doesn't really ease your heartache does it, so sympathetic Purrs are on the way for you Jean.P.
