I am posting here as well as the Rainbow Bridge just in case you don't all visit there, to let you all know that Sam of Frodo and Sam fame was gently PTS today. Sadly he was found to have liver cancer and it was very severe and the vet advised that he must have been unwell for some time. There was no choice but for the new owner to make the decision for the final act of kindness. I am just so pleased that his last few weeks were spent as a much loved pet and not in a pen.

sorry to hear that ela, sorry i dont know the story of sam but i am sure his new mummy and daddy will be going through heartache now but will be glad sam had loving home comforts for a few weeks.

This was Sam & Frodo who's owner was emigrating and wasn't taking the cats with him, I was so pleased when they found a new home so quickly. RIP Sam, poor Frodo and how awful for his new Mum or Dad to lose him so soon :'(
-
Yes that is right, the new owners are devastated.
-
did sam have any known conditon ela or was this out of the blue ?
-
Poor Sam, how sad for the new owners and Frodo :(
-
Awww no, I remember those two, they looked like sweeties. :'( RIP, Sam.

Well when he arrived it was very difficult to get him to eat, I e-mailed his former owner before he went to Canada and asked what the fav food was, he did mention that food was a problem. The vet seems to think it was a long standing problem. As you know cats are very good at hiding certain illnesses until the last minute. At least his former owner went away from the UK happy, and indeed Frodo and Sam have enjoyed the short time they have been here. Hopefully Frodo will continue to enjoy a few more years yet.

:( oh no how sad .... they were a lovely pair. I do hope Frodo doesn't pin too much form Sam.
RIP Sad ... play hard at the bridge baby.

Oh how sad? :'(
RIP Sam xxx

How very sad at least they had a good life and not left on there on in a pen for their last few weeks on earth.
RIP SAM

I am sure that Frodo will be fine he is getting lots of TLC
-
Oh that's so sad. As has already been said, its nice to know he was part of a family when he passed.
RIP Sam
-
i am so sorry to hear this, it must be so awful on his new owners and Frodo, I do hope he wasn't suffering too much. RIP little one.
-
RIP Sam,you had loads of love at the end.
So very hard for all concerned and my heart goes out to you. Give Frodo loads of attention and cuddles.
-
Awww, what a tragedy. Sam was lucky though... she went from love to love with no gaps, she had the best life a cat could hope for.
-
Frodo will continue to get loads of TLC and a new friend soon I think. Not to replace Sam you understand as you can never replace, but at least her passing has made way for another little one to be homed and another one can be taken into care in that ones place.
