    Ok yeah this had me crying. We had a rescue for the last year of her life. She was blind and almost deaf when we got her. She was so precious and I made her food here in the kitchen. I had to put it in the processor due to her lack of teeth. She had an amazing last year. She was loved and petted and spoiled. And out of all of the animals I’ve ever had the pleasure to love….she left the biggest imprint 🐾

      My beautiful cat Jesse just passed away last year at the age of 18 1/2. He was happy and spry and loved to eat. He would jump three feet from the back of the recliner to the couch to hang with me and watch tv. He had just visited the vet for a checkup and showed no signs of health problems at all. I just woke up one morning and found him lying lifeless. See you at the rainbow bridge little friend.

      Old dogs give as much or more love and caring. I had two Toy Fox Terriers that lived till 17 (5 lbs) and 21 (4 lbs) and both were in good health almost till the end. SO sweet, couldn't walk by me without kissing my ankle and being loving. Love does keep them going, but we are their guardians and when it's time to pass on, it's our duty to help them. Old age is not a disease, but when they do get too ill, we can still help them by stopping the discomfort and pain. Dingo, I bet you were the best guardian and love for that dog.

      @@BenDover-wm7wf 😔😢so sorry friend, the shock must have been almost unbearable. But you must remember that you gave your cat the best life ever, taking care of their physical welfare too, as you obviously did, shows you did your utmost for them. I know you would have wanted to be there at the end but hopefully, at his age, it was quick.
      I had to have my own little 13 year old dog, Angel, put to sleep. I expected her to live to be 16 at least although she had her problems. I, like you I suspect, spent more of my money on her and her needs than I ever did on mine. I took her to the vet with a slight problem, who referred me to a specialist, who did a scan and told me she had a massive heart tumour. She couldn't be left as she would have struggled to breathe at her last so I had to make the decision for her. This all happened on one day. Believe you me, it's a terrible decision to make because you know you ultimately have no choice so, for them, you have to make sure you don't allow them to struggle on just for your own wants.
      I guess what I'm taking an age to say is your adored cat was taken in the way we'd all wish to go: quickly and knowing love and comfort. In time, because of that love, you will find that next special little soul who needs it too - just as I did with that tiny moppet you see next to my name. He was taken much too young from his mum and siblings and I knew I could care properly for him. Teddy is almost 2 now, utterly adorable and adored, and rules the house. But I'll never forget my little girlie.....

She died on my lap with my family and our other dogs new years day last year. I wish I could have done more but I think that's a bit selfish. May she rest in peace. Thank you for rescuing that guy.
