Electra is gone...

This morning the Donna made the decision to bring Electra to the vet for the last visit.


Electra was always called the prettiest stripped cat in the galaxy. This morning she became the prettiest stripped cat in the universe.

Oh my gosh David. I'm so terribly sorry to hear that. I don't think there is much I can say right now to make you feel better. All I ccan say is that you are a very loving person to take care of all these kitties! At least they knew they were loved when they left. Again, I'm so sorry to hear this.

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{David}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}.

I don't know what to say other than how sorry I am that you're going through this tragedy with your beloved kitties. I will keep you in my prayers. Sending cyberhugs from my kitties to you and yours. Jennifer

david~

i'm so sorry for yours and donna's loss. its very difficult when our pets leave us but sometimes its helpful to think of them in a better place where they don't feel any pain. i remember when my casey died (she was suffering from cardiomyopathy) i was very depressed. after the cloud lifted i finally realized that even though i miss her more than anything that she's not in pain anymore. she was suffering a lot.

i know it doesn't seem fair that 3 of your furbabies were taken from you in such a short period of time. it wasn't fair that my casey got very sick very fast either. but i know that someday i'll see her again as will you and donna see your furbabies.

try to remember all of the positive things- it'll help you get through this time. dwelling on the negative will only bring you down. trust me i know all about it. there are pet bereavement groups out there- check to see if one meets near where you live. you may benefit from this. and you always have the support of your friends here at the ivillage Cats board to talk to too.

its going to be rough and every emotion is very raw and fresh to you now- that's only natural. you'll see something taht reminds you of one of your cats and you'll probably become upset. but over time this will pass and when you look at them inthe future you'll smile instead. i have casey's leash and collar on my bureau. when i look at it now i smile and remeber back to how she used to love to be let off her leash so she could run top speed at me in an open field. right after she died i just cried when i thought about it. now i look at her pics and think of the day they were taken and how she was probably feeling.

time does heal all wounds david. your wounds are just too fresh now to heal but one day soon they'll start.

your friend

I'm so sorry David. We all knew this was coming, but I know it hurts just the same. At least now Electra is no longer in pain. Being hungry and not being able to eat must be the absolute worst feeling in the world. You and Donna did the best you could for her, eventually you will take comfort in that. I'm so glad that Tasha doesn't mind being picked up - I just grabbed her and gave her the biggest hug I could (she was walking under my feet while I was reading your post).
