I NOTICED LAST NIGHT THAT ROCCA BATON WAS MAKING A LOT OF NOISE AT THE LITTER BOX AND SHE WAS CONSTIPATED. THEN WHEN I SAW THAT SHE AHD LSOT WEIGHT I MADE ARRANGEMENTS FOR HER TO GO TO THE VETS ASAP.
I AM NOT AS CLOSE TO ROCCA AS SHES A TIMID CAT WITH ME WHICH IS HOW I DIDNT NOTICE THAT SHE ONLY 5 POUNDS.
PLEASE PRAY MY BALINESE BEAUTY DOES NOT PAY THE PRICE FOR MY NEGLECT.
GET WELL MY LITTLE GIRL.

I don't think that you neglect any of your babies. If she's timid how would you know her weight. Ellie only weighed 6.5 lbs, and the most he ever weighed was 7 lbs. I will pray for you and your baby, Rocca.

[LuckyNumber7]

If I may say so, what you do for your cats is wonderful, and I don't think you can ever say that you have neglected any of them. You noticed when their was an issue, made an appointment immediately....that's the right thing to do. Please don't beat yourself up.

My Commodus angel is going to look over Rocca Baton and hope that she makes a speedy recovery :)

[Catty1]

Prayers for wee Rocca Baton. I hope it is something simple that is fixable.

[Kirsten]

I hope the vet will be able to help her! And please don't blame yourself, you did NOT neglect her. When she's a timid girl, she wouldn't have been comfortable with being held all the time.

The worst thing is the waiting, the what I will do when Rocca gets home and how things will be different. I thought that Rocca was getting her share of the food, I had no reason to think that anything was wrong.
Complcency is a terrible thing as you miss the cahnages that occurr with time.
I should know fairly soon, and I will shift funds over in case its a complicated procedure.

Wheres Our Pal?

Thank You for your prayers.

Catmandu, it breaks my heart to see you say you have neglected any of your cats. The love and care you give them overwhelms me. I'm sure that Churchill is right next to Commodus keeping an eye on your beautiful Rocca. If she's timid, maybe everyone else eats first. Sweet Rocca girl.

[catmandu]

I just recieved the Bad News.
Rocca has severe kidney failure and from her cold paws probably a heart ailment and I okayed her being PTS as I dont want her to suffer anymore.
I would of course wanted to be there but I had tests of my won , and I had no idea that she was that ill.
I am so sorry Rocca.

The Cat Piles will never be that full until we meet again in Paradise..
ONE FINE DAY.

Oh, Gary!

How old was dear Rocca?

She will be another Angel on the Search and Rescue, with a few kitties missing right now, she is very needed.

I am so sorry for your loss...she is the prettiest girl.

Rocca, send some purrs your daddy's way...he loved you and still does, and would have done anything to help you get well.

Be at peace, little one.

Gary, I am so very sorry about Rocca Baton. :( :(

Please know that she loved you and appreciated all of your efforts on her behalf. You are a wonderful caregiver and none of us believe that you neglected her.

Logan and Buttercup

Oh, Catmandu. I am so sorry. I know Churchill will wait at the bridge to greet her.

[LuckyNumber7]

Oh my god, I'm so sorry Gary. So, so sorry. All I can say is that too many pet talk pets have passed on lately - but I am sure they will find each other on the bridge and play and eat lots of catnip. You did the right thing by not allowing her to suffer any longer. Please do not ever say that you neglect any of your cats, because you don't.

[Prairie Purrs]

Oh, Gary, I'm so sorry for the loss of your beautiful girl Rocca. I'm sure that Katie and Cricket met her at the Bridge and invited her to join them in a cat pile.

Rest gently, lovely Rocca Baton. You were cherished, and you'll never be forgotten. Please join the other angels in watching over your catdad.

[catmandu]

I wish I had written down the day and year that Rocca arrived.
I am reasonably sure it was before John and after The Moose.
That would be about 9 years ago that would make Rocca 11.
I am going to take Theresa in in Roccas memory as soon as she trusts me.
I know that Rocca Angel wil help out.
My Cat Piles are shrinking here but growing at the Rainbow Bridge.
I have to go I have such LES.

[Taz_Zoee]

Oh no! I am so sorry to hear this. :(
RIP Sweet Rocca.

[Laura's Babies]

Just know that you are not crying alone Gary! See, there was nothing you could have done anyway so don't feel guilty. She had a great life with you so remember the good days with her, she was loved, that is what matters!!!

[Karen]

I will close this thread, see Rocca's Memorial (http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=128277) here.

[Kirsten]

I didn't know you had her for such a long time. This makes it even harder!! :( I'm so very sorry! :(

Gary, It is so sad to hear of Ms. Rocca's passing.
Know this...you were an EXCELLENT cat daddy and that she knew all the love in your heart...
Sending soft hums and prayers for Ms. Rocca at the bridge...
