    I awoke about 6 this morning and found she had vomited all over the seat of her favorite chair. Half of it was red blood. I found her under a low cabinet. I thought it would be just her body, but she was still alive. I lay on the floor, rested my hand on her, and told her I was there and that I loved her. Twice she let out yowls that sounded like she was in great pain. Over the next 2 hours, she worked herself out from under the cabinet to a space where I could reach her.

    I called the vet when they opened at 8 and took her in. The vet found her to be dehydrated, anemic, in renal failure, pale, and weak, besides having her GI tract inflamed. As always, I went to be with her as she left. I told her about the Bridge, then recited the first and last stanzas of “Night, Night Furball” and the last stanza of “Pawprints.” They had some trouble finding a vein because she was dehydrated. I kept telling her to watch for the colors. She meowed when she left.

    Tomorrow is the last day for the clinic. I told the vet and the tech that this was one heck of a thing to be the last thing we did.

    Oh no, I’m so sorry, Leeny. Pat is at peace, with many new friends and family, headed up by Solange. {{{hugs}}}

    But Leeny, you loved her. You gave her the greatest gift of all! 9 weeks ago she would have gone to the Bridge not knowing about the true love of a human. Because of you, she has someone wait at the Bridge for. Because of you, she felt no fear when she drew her final earthly breath.

    Leeny, Pat was blessed to have someone like you to take her in and love her, no matter for how short a time. And she will wait at the Bridge for you, no matter for how long a time.

    Leeny, I can bearly see to type, and my heart is breaking. ((Leeny)) Pat was so incredibly lucky to have you in her final days. Her hospice days, like Solange. The best of everything and love and caring as she stepped from this world to the next.

    Oh, NO Leeny! I am SO very sorry for the loss of Pat. What a blessing she had you for those 9 weeks and you were there loving her at the end. Poor precious baby girl……. My heart is breaking for you and I LOVE that poem, Night Night Furball…. That is the poem I thought of when my Perry passed away. Bless your heart sweetie. Love and prayers for you and the kits. XOX

    I’m so sorry, Leeny. There are no words. Bless you, you gave Pat nine weeks of love and care, you gave her her own furever home, it’s not about the amount of time we have on this earth, it’s about how much we love and are loved in return.

    {{Leeny}},
    I too can barely see from my tears. I’m sorry you lost Miss Pat so early. It is heartbreaking for you but you gave her more love in her nine weeks than Miss Pat would have known without you. Thank you for reaching out to her. Many hugs and warm fuzzies

    I’m so very sorry Leeny. At the very least Pat knew that she belonged to you and surrounded by your love and soothing voice, left for now. If you feel that you want to, you might want to include Pat for a bright white light on our Joan’s superb holiday project. Hugs to you, Penny and Kit.

    I’m so very sorry to read this. I’m quite new here and I don’t know Pat’s entire history. But I have read a few of your posts about her and I wanted to add my condolences. Pat did know she was much loved during her short life. I hope that, in time, you will be able to take some solace in that.

    I am so sorry, Leeny. My Magoo is welcoming Pat just as he was welcomed not too long ago. They are playing and snuggling already! xoxox
