Betty, I hope you find your special pet soon. It is smart of you to save. So many people just rush out and get pets they can't properly take care of. Penny was so beautiful with her silky hair.
Thanks Nini. Things are getting better. It is quiet, though.

Betty - I know it's so hard. I'm so sorry you're going through this. Like Marianne said, I truly hope you will find your next companion very soon, too. Big hugs to you, sister - Nini

You won't find another penny but you will find another that will fill the hole in your heart. My fancy cat went there on Tuesday. She was diagnosed with a tumor in her lung which was also affecting her liver. She was a feisty 14 yo calico and was totally my Cay.

Cat. She tolerated my hubby and son and hated the dog. She was a voracious hunter often wanting to share her midnight snacks. Once she had a rabbit waiting for me for breakfast. Anyway, there will be no other cat like her. I'm sorry. Hang in there.

| Our Golden Retriever/Basset Hound/Chow, Chula is 14 1/2 now and has periods of confusion like not remembering where the porch stair are and forgetting she has just gone out. She had started to urinate in her sleep and I was afraid it was time for THE decision but medications for incontinence and arthritis have improved her tremendously. She has new vim and vigor but continues to be confused at times. I think the hardest part of having an elderly dog is knowing the right time to make THE decision. We had a dog five years ago with cancer and on the vets advice that she had another good month waited too long and that final couple of days were horrendous. The most amazing thing was that when we did have her put down it was an amazing and peaceful experience. I would have never thought I could be there but I stayed and am so glad I had those last few precious memories with her and will with Chula as well. |
