R.I.P. Peewee (1991-2007)

By sweet boy is gone. I euthanized him today. He went pretty
quickly. This morning I took him out and sat on the steps with him,
and held him, petting his head and ears which he loved. He was
purring pretty heavily and really seemed to enjoy it. The vet came a
couple hours later, gave him a sed, and I held him and stroked him as
he went under, and told him how much I loved him and that he was a
good kitty. Then he was injected with the euth solution, took a final
breath, and that was it. I'm glad I chose today because it was
becoming more and more difficult for him to function. He was weak and
wobbly, and just a shell of his former self - he used to weigh 22lb,
and was barely 5 now, if even that. His meow was weak. It was time.

I still remember the day I chose him - a cage full of little black
kittens, maybe 5 weeks old, playing with each other, beating each
other up. Peewee was the biggest and had a really big head and wide
nose - he looked really funny, but I knew he would grow to be the
handsome boy that he was. He was the only kitten that didn't have a
home, and he kept reaching his little black paw out between the bars,
and grabbing my fingers, so that sealed the deal. That was in April,
16 years ago. He had a good life, and I miss him terribly. Give your
fur babies an extra kiss today.

love,
-L.

I am so very, very sorry.

What a beautiful, sweet tribute to Peewee, Lyn. I know what you're going
through right now and I wish there were something I could say to help make
the pain go away but, unfortunately, there isn't anything that anyone can do
except grieve along with you. I think we all feel of our beloved departed
pets that, "If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever."

Hugs,

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Purrs of comfort for you.
Peewee was well loved and you continued to be a loving
mother and helped him on his way so he wouldn't suffer.

What a sweet story, but it's always bittersweet, isn't it? Even as we choose
the kitten, we know that someday, it will come to this, and our hearts will
break, but we always take him home anyway. Purrs to you to heal your aching
heart.
Best regards,

i am really sorry for your loss, i know it was hard to make the
decision and let him go but it was for the best and he will thank you
for it, he drew his last breathe whilst surrounded by love which the
way we all want our furbabies to go.

in time you will be able to give your love to a new little furbaby,
there will be another little kitty who needs your care and love badly
and i am sure peewee would want you to share your home with a little
furry fellow who needs a mum

hugs from bookie, jessie and terri (who sat on my lap for the first
time tonight, not such a scaredy cat after all, i feel very
priviledged)

Lyn, I am crying with you. He has been a good friend to you for so long,
and you have been the best friend he ever could have had.

"Rise up slowly, Angel. It's hard to let you go..."
Your story reminds me so much how my Siamese changed from a beautiful
solid kitty with dark fur to a wispy, almost all white kitty weighing
only about 3 pounds. Sincere condolences. MLB

I just hugged and kissed them all.

One day when you're ready, you'll be picked by another furry owner
that might remind you of pooh, or maybe not. Or maybe down the
road, the new furry owner might do something that reminds you of
him.
