Show us your pets!

Beth, I am so sorry to read that you had to let her go, that is such a hard thing. Hugs for you and Calypso.

Beth, thinking of you today- hugs to you.
I'm glad that it was obvious about it being Bonnie's time. I think it's always harder when the decision and turning point is not as clear. I too was relieved in terms of making 'the decision' a few months ago when our Pearl was found to have not just kidney problems but advanced cancer as well- treatments and cures were just no longer in the picture and that made my decision to end it much easier, knowing she would only feel worse and worse and have more pain as she approached the end.
Wishing you and Calypso a loving recovery time during your loss.

Thanks everyone. Calypso engages me in play, especially since Bonnie isn't around to pick on. Got my ankles as I left the bathroom . I swear she laughs. Mad game of chase insued.

I look forward to the day when I take a new fur baby to Dr.C and ask the ever important question: "He/she followed me home, can I keep him/her?"

Dr.C. has been a wonderful vet, especially since I arrived in town with 2 geriatric and fragile cats. Nothing quite like getting to know a new client because their fur babies are terminally/chronically ill. OTOH, scheduling Calypso's annual check-up next month will be pleasant. Just a well-patient check, annual shots, see how she's doing on her weight loss (she finished off Herald and Bonnie's special food fairly often, bad on the waist line).

We're doing OK
