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. |

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, CatNipped "-L." wrote in message ups.com... By sweet boy is gone.

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.

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, ---Cindy S. |

Give your fur babies an extra kiss today. love, -L. 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) |

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 |
