My beautiful boy was put down today, we are so sad as he was an adorable little man. He had a saddle thrombus. He became ill last week, but by a miracle he seemed to recover, but he became very ill this morning and has been put down. We are so sad as he was so loved and so beautiful.

I'm so so sorry to hear of your loss and to welcome you to Purrs under such sad circumstances :hug:
Mr Scoobie was a very handsome chap and when you are feeling more up to it would love to hear mor about him and the other little stunner in your picture.
We are a very friendly group on here and sadly far too many us understand the loss and heartache associated with having to say "goodbye" to a special furry friend.
RIP Scoobie ... play hard at the bridge little man.

The Greatest Gift
I always knew this time would come,
From the very instant our eyes first met.
How I loved you then! How I love you now!
I made a promise then, and I will keep that promise now...
You will not suffer from a pain that will not heal;
You will not know the loss of a life remembered, now gone.
It is for me alone to make this decision,
The price for the bright joy and pure laughter
You brought me during the time we shared.
I am the only one who can decide when it is time.
When my hope dies, and my fear rides high,
Just when I need you most, I must let you go.
It is for you alone to tell me when you are ready
For without your guidance, I will not know
When to lay my grief, my guilt, my anger
My sorrow and my selfish heart aside
And give you this last gift, this greatest gift.
Your eyes will speak to mine, and I will know.
The pain of this moment is excruciating.
Tears stream down my face in a river of sorrow.
And my heart drowns in a pool of grief.
For you have spoken and I have listened,
And unlike other decisions I have made
This one brings no relief...no comfort...no peace.
For if there´s one thing you´ve taught me,
If there´s only one thing I´ve learned...
Unconditional love has a condition after all,
I must be willing to let you go, when you speak to me
I must be willing to help you go, if you cannot go alone.
And I must accept my pain so you can be free of yours.
Go easily now, go quickly now,
Do not linger here, it is time for you to leave.
Go find your strength, go find your youth.
Go find the ones who've gone before you.
You are free to leave me now, free to let your spirit soar
Rest easy now, your pain will soon be gone.
I pray I will find comfort in my memories...
In the dark and lonely days ahead.
I cannot say I will not miss you, I cannot say I will not cry.
For only my tears can heal my broken heart.
But, I promise you this; as long as I live,
You will live, alive in my mind, forever in my heart.
So I give you this last gift, all I have left to give,
And this will be my greatest gift...sending you away.
It is the measure of my unconditional love...
For only the greatest love can say,
"Good-bye, go find the bridge, we'll meet again,
Loving you has been the greatest gift of all."
Forever and Always... Until Rainbow bridge....

Sorry to hear about your beautiful Mr Scoobie :hug:
He reminds me so much of my poor old boy, Clapton.
-
I'm sorry for your loss :(
-
Thank you. Clapton looks very cute awww.
My little man was still quite young for a cat. He was nine years old, and up until last weekend he was very lively and full of life.
He was such a friendly little chap, he would come and sit on your lap, have his ears stroked and purr. He never once, scratched, hissed, spat at anyone. He reminded us of a dog as he would wait for us to come home and then come runnng in when he saw us. He is truly unreplacable.
Because we found out his life was limited we have spoilt him rotten in his last week, and I am just so grateful that we had this prescious tme with him.

My boy is also 9 and diagnosed with CRF over 2 years ago. He also had never bitten or scratched - in fact he cowers like a dog when he is scared. He also doesn't have any teeth. We don't know how long we have with him so trying to make the best of it. He sleeps virtually all the time now and only gets up to eat. They break our hearts :(

This is Also called a blood clot or Aortic Thromboembolism. The clot stops the ciruculation in the legs and the cats legs loose all feeling and go cold because the circulation has stopped. His legs were dying and his heart was giving up.

Thankyou for replying Catlover, that must have been very distressing for you both, sending you lots of :hug: :hug:
-
Sorry to hear this
:RIP: Scoobie

My Dear One...
There is nothing I can add to what has been said better by those replying already.
It seems little enough but, trust me, I know from experience - knowing that there is an entire world of those whose babies have already crossed that bridge - who are at this time there with you, holding your hand, hugging you close to our hearts, and mourning such that glorious boy.... it may not help today, but it will help.
Because while we join with you in mourning his death, we also join with you in celebrating his life. Too brief. Way too brief. No matter how long it was, it's always too brief.
But he was loved.
It may not speak to you just now, but that is the greatest thing, and the thing that has got me through my own losses.
He was loved.
As are you in our hearts now.
Be at peace. He is. And left this world knowing and feeling love around him.

RIP Mr Scoobie. :(

He's such a sweetie.
We lost one of ours to cancer a couple of weeks ago - we had to make the decision that it was time for him to go too, so I know just how you feel - right now I'm still feeling it.
RIP wee man.
