Run free, Ashycat

I'm sorry to say that Ashycat has crossed the Bridge. She went on Saturday. She had bad kidneys, possible heart and thyroid trouble too.

But she was sick Friday night - yellow foamy, which I wasn't too perturbed about and there was some dinner coughed up too..... Except it wasn't coughed up - it was poo and there was blood in it.

I had been feelingfor a while that it was time for her to go; she had spent all her time asleep, was eating very little and was very dodgy on her legs. The vet said that all she could do was patch Ashycat up, give her antibiotics to see if it made any difference to the poops. But the poor darling looked so fed up and tired, I decided that it was time.

She went in my arms and I was so happy to have had her. To gain her trust from the scared, empty cat who came to me in 2013. I will miss my Ashycat.

Sound like she had a lot of love from you and gave a lot of love in return Flowers.

You did the right thing, none of us would want to vomit faeces either.

Toddlerteaplease · 10/08/2021 15:46

Very sorry to hear it. Sounds like it was the right decision.

JoanOgden · 10/08/2021 16:19

Oh, I am so sorry, but it was clearly the right time and she had many happy years with you being loved and cherished.

Hugs from my ash cat and me 💔

Thanks all

I am upset for me, IYSWIM, not Ashycat, so that's assured me it was the right decision.

She came to me for cuddles the night before she died - she hadn't done that for weeks - so I think that was her saying goodbye.
