{{{{HUGS}}}} to you Jody.  Sorry you had to put her to sleep, but you know when it is time.  We had to put our Daisy to sleep about 3 years ago.  We had her for 14 years and it was so hard.  We just cried everytime we came home to the empty house.  We finally had to get another one - enter Little Willie!!  They could not be more different. 

It is like losing a part of your family. I'll be thinking about you.

Thanks Linda.  I won't be replacing her any time soon, but BF said he'd like an indoor/outdoor cat at his place.  Probably wait until summer for that.

Jody,
I'm so very sorry for you loss.  I know how it hurts to lose a pet.  They become just like family.  You gave her a good home and love for her last 5 years.

Thanks Linda.  She was my companion for many years.  Yes, I did give her a good home, although at times she may have questioned it - LOL.

So sorry to hear this Jody!  I know how hard it is, but your right...when she pooped in the corner at the vet, she validated your decision.  That is a good thing, because you didn't go away questioning it!  Sending hugs your way!

Thanks everyone.  It was odd not seeing her laying in the baby chair this morning.

((((((Jody))))))

I still miss Friday, and it's been almost 11 years. I love Buster and Spook, and I loved Trouble while we had her, but will always miss Friday, who had kitty dementia at 18.

You and your fur baby will be in my thoughts when I go home and cuddle with my two.
