My poor girl

Lovely, lovely dcat (15) was put to sleep yesterday morning after diagnosis of extensive abdominal lymphoma.

She hated being out of her comfort zone, and loathed having tablets so we agreed that the kindest option was not to try treatments that could only have put off the inevitable for a few weeks.

I was fortunate to be with her at the animal hospital and know she went peacefully but we're all so bloody sad today Sad

Flowers for you xx

So many good wishes and sympathies to you. I know how it feels. It gets better over time and all the lovely memories and photos help immensely. Flowers

Arh what a beautiful cat.
I sadly know your pain. Hugs

She's lovely, sorry to hear your news.

sleepyhead · 01/10/2017 21:28

Thank you - she was beautiful. Wee white gloves, white boots and white bib that she kept immaculate Smile

We didn't think of her as elderly because she was the same as she'd been her whole life. I took her to the vet as she was off her food thinking maybe she had a problem with her teeth.

It was our privilege to be her family.

Oh so sorry, you did the right thing by her. I have to say she is the double of ours who is 15 about now.

:( such a cute cat xxx used to have a tuxedo cat that look just like her

Oh sleepyhead the exaxt same thing happened to me last year. I thought my sweet cat was off her food because of her teeth but it was also an abdominal mass. She was a black and white cat too. Black front paws with two white toes

So sorry op we recently lost our 15yr old female cat in the same circumstances. It's so devastating, I agree. What has comforted me is that like you said we were lucky to have had her for all those years Flowers
