Went vets today to arrange Lucy to have a check up also as was worried about the emergency vet thinking Neo had FIP the vet who has been caring for all the time except the weekend said she will check Lucy over but thinks Neo did not have Fip as his biopsy previously didnt show anything like that in from the lab 2 weeks ago? She thinks he had a rare form of Leukaemia and that is why the steroids and antibiotics were not working for the last few weeks and he was just getting worse. In the end he had an infection in fluid in his stomach but he was severly anaemic for a while and his white blood cells were rock bottom in the end and his body wasnt producing anymore? I thought he had something like that all along but because they didnt say i just hoped it wasnt. Still really missing him but am able to enjoy the photis of him a bit more now without crying that much i cant see. I watched a video we have of him at christmas opening his own presents also and lucy that was great. He was so lovely such a shame and so young. x

Have finally realised this morning he is not coming home and feel choked everytime i think of him but we have a video of him at christmas opening his presents with lucy and lots of photos i just have to remember all the funny things he did and what a loving cat he was curled in my lap at night. Will miss him dearly but have realised i must be strong for Lucy as she keeps looking for him and she doesnt understand. I need to remain positive for her im sure she doesnt want to keep seeing me crying. This morning when i got up it broke my heart there was no Neo to come and greet me with Lucy as they both love their cuddles first thing in the morning then Neo first to dive into the food as he was a greedy guts :rofl: Lucy shared bed with me last night so she wasnt on her own and poor dave got the edge :rofl: RIP Neo love you always x

Hi, I am so sorry about Neo, I know how much you love him and Lucy and how hard you tried to get him better.

Nothing will console you right now but it will get easier with time. It sounds as though Neo was ready to go and now he is pain free.

For those of us who love our cats to bits it is the hardest decision to make, and grief and guilt will get to you for some time to come so just let it happen, give Lucy lots of hugs as she will be missing him as well. If you need to talk then Judith or myself are always there.

RIP Neo.

So sorry to hear this  :hug: RIP little Neo, safe and sound at the Bridge by now, waiting until your Mum is ready to collect you xx

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....

I rarely come to this section Sam as always so very upsetting but especially so to hear about Neo's passing at such a young age  :'(.  He was so very handsome.  They are so very very precious aren't they?   :(

Dinah, Millie, Ruby and me all send you our deepest sympathy to you and beautiful young Lucy.

I'm so glad you were strong enough to do the kindest thing for him.  I wish I could do or say something to ease your loss  :hug: :hug: :hug:

Oh! Sam, when you rang me from the vets yesterday, I was hoping it wouldn't come to this. :'(  It was a heartbreaking chat we had, and the decision could only be yours and your OH's.   You did the kindest, but most difficult thing for him, so be reassured that is what I would have done if he were mine, or one of our rescue cats.  :hug:

It is the final thing you can do for your beloved animal, but definitely the hardest.  :'(

Believe me you are all in my thoughts today and always.  :grouphug:

Neo you were loved so much and I am glad that you had a happy, if short life with a lovely couple and "sister" Lucy.  :RIP:

Ignore me saying piv i was crying to much and couldnt read properly until after but it was suspected FIP. He just got so poorly and wasnt responding to any meds and in the end not only was he severly anaemic he also had low white blood cell and the vet said he was sub to anything his immuinity was rock bottom and was a shell of himself so we had to let him go. Just wanted to let Neo know if he can hear me that i love him soooo much and wish he could still be here but realised how ill you were and didnt want to put you through anymore.x

It is with great sadness i let you all know that my cat Neo was pts today in afternoon as had been unwell for a few weeks had tried steroids and antibiotics etc he had biopsys you name it he had but unfortunately yesterday he took a turn for the worst and started being sick etc also was rushed into 24hr care but when we went to see him today he was so bad and in such a state vet said kindest thing for him was to let him go. He was losing weight rapidly was down to 2.7kg and today he was such a sorry sight he could just breathe the vets said his blood tests were showing a severe infection and they discovered fluid rapidly building in his stomach in the last 24hrs and suspected he had piv. Wish we could have cured him as he leaves a big hole in our heart and we will always love him and never forget him. He was just 16mths and leaves behind a sister lucy cat too who is missing him also. Allthough they are not related are same age been together for since 7wks old. I just hope Neo forgives us for the decision we had to make if we could have done anything else we would but it was getting to be cruel for him and we needed to end his suffering as he had been through enough. Today he had got so poorly he could even lift his head properly and we just knew we had to do something for him. We will always always love you Neo and you will forever be in our hearts and will miss you dearly. Sweet dreams my little boy hopefully we meet again some day.xxx
