You gave Sofa a wonderful life, despite all the odds being against her all those years ago. Do take care of yourself too with your pregnancy

Im so sorry to hear about Sofa

i know exactly what your going through from my own experience with my babes and all i can say is please take care of yourself and dont let this take away from the twins, from the sound of it she had a wonderful life with you and now shes with Vesti and he will take care of her till your ready to meet again, try to celebrate their lives and think how much love was given to them and when it came to it you did the right thing and didnt let either one suffer, you let them go with dignity, take care :

Oh Mrs R Im so sorry. RIP Sofa , young and healthy again on the bridge.

I'm so sorry Mrs R, definitely take care of yourself and try not to connect your pregnancy too much to losing your furbabes, it was their time to go. From what you have written about Sofa coming into your life, it is clear that you gave her a wonderful life and a dignified journey to the bridge. She was as lucky to have you as you were her.

I'm so sorry

Life seems so cruel sometimes.

RIP Sofa.

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #35 on:** January 06, 2009, 22:02:48 PM »

I am so sorry to hear this, but I dont think it is connected to your pregnancy in anyway. Sadly we know when we get certain diagnosis's that we are on borrowed time with them, but you gave her a wonderful time and she will be forever grateful for that, and you allowed her to go peacefully to save her suffering further. RIP little one

Well its not good.

Sofa had to be PTS. A couple of years ago she lost a large percentage of her sight when she had a cerebral hemorrhage, this all coincided with her renal failure but she managed well with her meds and with her partial sight and would tear around the garden like a fully sighted well cat. Over the last few days she had become fecal and urine incontinent.

Today the vet looked straight into her eyes with their gadget and said straight away she had had another massive cerebral hemorrhage and it was not good.

Sofa was PTS tonight.

I have been waiting for this day for a while now and have been blessed to have her for so long with managing her illnesses.

Sofa came from the Mayhew Animal Hospital. I walked in and said to them who has been here the longest and who can you not rehomed - they took me to Sofa. She had been found cowering behind a sofa with her kittens after being abandoned by her owners. She had receieved eye injuries and head injuries and was in a bad way but the Mayhew Animal Hospital got her better. Because Sofa was very nervous of people because of what she had gone through she needed a lot of work and at the time I was not working and so spent the first 6 months able to be with her day and night slowly getting her to trust me. I look her on 15 years ago and in those 15 years she became my princess. She was my special polydactyl cat.

I have been in bits tonight and even though for months have been preparing for loosing her its still not been easy, also because I lost Sylvester only a few weeks ago.

It does seem like 2 of my cats have gone to make way for my twins and right now that hurts as I want my furbabies back and right now hating my pregnancy.

I miss my Sofa and I miss my Vesti, I just feel so empty. From 7 cats to now 5 in a short space of time - its so unfair.

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #6 on:** January 06, 2009, 13:46:41 PM »

Try not to worry too much, it could be a case of a simple steroid jab perking her up

Will have everything crossed for her

clarenmax · « **Reply #5 on:** January 06, 2009, 13:41:42 PM »

Try to keep positive hun, it may just be an adjustment to medication which is required

I'll keep fingers and toes crossed for you hun, and although we will say try not to worry, we know that's not possible, so we'll share your worry out between us and pray for a good outcome tonight
