    We helped Bob cross to the meadow this morning. He was very weak but thankfully in no pain. He developed diarrhoea with blood present which is one of the final stages of FeLV . It’s all but conclusive now that even though he always tested negative to FeLV up until a week ago it’s appears the virus had been hiding in his bone marrow and wasn’t able to be detected. We now have to test Nutini & Mr Noodle in two weeks time 🙁 I only let bob and Nutini interact with him recently because of his negative tests 6 weeks ago. Mr Noodle is vaccinated but it’s not a guarantee .. Bob had a steak dinner last night and desert of Goat yogurt. He was purring as he passed on in my arms wrapped in his favourite cosy jumper.

    My Bobby Bob is now buried with his jumper in the forest beside out home. It’s where he played with his brother and sister and where he caught all his mice.. He’s with Buttons now in the meadow and that’s where they will wait for me.

    I’m so very sorry Buttons. It appears we now know the purpose of Buttons’ whisker.

    Yes ECB it was very peaceful .. I had the feliway spray for his carry cage and he relaxed and purred as soon as I put him in it. He didn’t cry once so he was very much at ease. To me that’s the most important thing…

    I’m just so very sad to read this. But it does sound like he had the most peaceful passing over that could have been possible. That’s so important. Wishing you and your family all the best….

    I too dreaded this news and hoped that it would not come, and am so very, very sorry for your loss (((Buttons and Mr. B))). Frisk about the Meadow Bobby-boy, give a Purr to Buttons (kitty) from his purrents and from us TDKers. And let your meowmy know that you are now OK, because your are, healthy and whole again.

    Buttons,
    I had so hoped to hear that Bobby Boy had bounced back. He is romping in the Meadow with Buttons and your last act of love and kindness will be with him furever.

    I know you’re heartbroken and if I could shoulder some of your sadness, I would. My gang of furballs send warm fuzzies and good wishes to you, Mr. B., Nutini and Mr. Noodle.

    Oh no, I am so very sorry. I was hoping that this day would not come. You are so brave and kind and good Buttons, to help him to the Meadow the way you did. Everything you did for him was loving and sweet. Blessing and prayers to you as you grieve his passing. My heart is broken for you.

    I am so sorry! You did everything you could, and made his passing gentle. Buttons greeted my Magoo, and I know Magoo was happy to return the favor by welcoming Bobby.

    Well said, Pucca, which got me to thinking. Back in late 2007 HM lost her Sebastian, who in early 2008 greeted my Jiggs, who a few weeks later greeted Feral’s Cowboy. We sure have one big happy family at the Meadow!

    And in 2010 all were joined by my tuxie Nicky! Bet that there’s a version of the TDK Café in the Meadow!
