Please say a prayer for my Sugar

[lizbud]

My kitty Sugar is very sick & was taken to the Vet's office
clinic this evening. I came home and Sugar didn't run to greet
me at the garage door as he always does.(Momma & Baby kitty
were right there waiting for me) I called to him several times &
when he didn't come I went walking around the yard calling him
again. I found him laying next to a bush in the yard & he seemed
to not be able to stand up. I bent down & talked to him but he
would barely open his eyes & crawled under the bush. I freaked
out of course & went inside to call my Vet. The vets office is 15 mins. away from me so he came out & transported Sugar to the
clinic for an examination. The Vet just called to say Sugar did take
a few steps for him. The vet found a few bad teeth, but nothing
obviously wrong. Sugar will get x-rays of his heart in the a.m.
Sugar was fine this morning when I left for work. He was eating
his dry food as normal. He looked so bad this evening & I am
very worried for him. Sugar has only been living with me for
1 1/2 years but he is such a sweetheart & I love him.:(

[zippy-kat]

:( Prayers on the way for Sugar, his kitty pals, doggie brother, and of course, his Mommy!!

[Cookiebaker]

I am so sorry to hear about Sugar! Let's hope that maybe those bad teeth are just causing an infection and thus a high fever, which was causing him to be listless. Prayers coming your way, and please let us know what the vet finds out!

Try to stay positive!

Kim

[lizbud]

Sugar died this morning. I called the Vet's office from work
this morning to check on him & got the bad news that Sugar
had died this early this morning. I just cannot believe it.When I
left for work yesterday morning at 7:30am he was just fine. He
was eating his dry kibble as I left. Nothing unusual at all about
him.He seemed just fine. The Dr said it was a toxin & envolved
all his organs. His system just shut down. Why ? He was an 18
lb kitty in good health except for the two teeth he found that
were bad last night. Sugar was eating, pee/pooping normally
just yesterday morning? The vet will be doing a post mortum
procedure today. I asked the Vet to do this because I cannot
believe something could act so quickly in his system.The Vet is
going to call me later today with whatever he finds out. I feel
so terrible, so sad. I don't know what to do or say. I loved him.
My little Sugar man.:(

[Logan]

Oh, Liz, I am so very sorry that your Sugar is gone. :(

RIP, Sugar.

Liz, please let us know what the results are. It is frightening that he could go downhill so quickly. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Logan :(

[Edwina's Secretary]

Oh Lizbud! I am so very sorry. Is it possible he ingested some poison?

My heart aches for you.

[Soledad]

Oh God, Liz. I am so sorry.

[momoffuzzyfaces]

I'm so sorry! Words just fail at times like these.
RIP darling Sugar. You were very loved.:(

[Randi]

This is so sad. :( Sugar was the cat I read about first when I joined PT and I think you did a great rescue there, Liz! I'm SO sorry he had to go! At least he didn't suffer for long.

I'll keep you and Suger in my thoughts and hope he'll now be playing with his friends at the RB.

Rest in Peace, sweet Sugar!! We will miss you!!

[ChrisH]

Oh. Liz, I am so, so sorry :( {{Hugs}}

Rest in Peace sweet Sugar.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Oh no. :( I am so sorry, Liz. :( :(

Rest in peace, Sugar. You will be missed. :(

[slick]

Oh Liz that's so sad and my heart is aching for you. Take comfort in knowing that Sugar loved you as much as you loved him and he's waiting for you at the RB. RIP sweet Sugar and please watch over Liz for us.

Hugs to you Liz.:( :( :(

[Cincy'sMom]

Oh Liz, what a shock!! I am so sorry to hear about poor Sugar!! I hope the vet is able to give you some answers about how such a healthy cat could go so quick.

RIP, Dear Sugar. Make Buddy show ya round the bridge.

[Miss Meow]

Liz, I can't believe this has happened. I'm so sorry about Sugar, rest in peace beautiful one. {{{hugs}}}

[tatsxxx11]

Dear Liz, I'm so very sorry for not having seen this thread sooner. Logan told me about it earlier today, and now, this very sad news:( HIs illness was so sudden and still, inexplicable. I know you feel so stunned right now. Perhaps the Dr.'s inquiry will give you some answers. I'm so, so sad for you Liz. Sugar loved his Mommy so and I know he knew how very loved he was by you. Rest peacefully, beautiful Sugar. Liz, I'm keeping you and Sugar in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Sandra {{{{HUGS}}}

[Barbara]

Dear Liz, I am so sorry for your loss! What a shock. This sounds as if he had eaten some poison! How horrible. May he rest in peace. My feelings are with you.

[captain]

Oh Liz - I am so sorry ............ :(

[lizbud]

I talked to the Vet a little while ago & he said the autopsy
showed all organs healthy, a full stomach & partialy empty
bladder. Some "mottling" on the heart & kidney, but nothing
that doesn't come with normal ageing. He had no broken bones,
no trauma evident anywhere & his spine & vertrabrae showed
no breakes or injuries. The Drs best quess is antifreeze poisoning.
He also said it could be a poisonous plant, or poisoned meat.
Sugar was not a roamer & always stayed within two yards of our
house. Sugar was a very affectionate kitty & I'll miss him very
much. I still am kinda numb & in shock about this whole thing.
The Vet said Sugar did not run a temperature last night, in fact
he registered a little below normal. I am totally floored by this as
I never saw him sick at all till I came home. I don't know what to
think, but I feel so bad for Sugar to die alone without me there.

[Cookiebaker]

Liz, I am so sorry for your loss. It's all so sudden and shocking.
He's not suffering anymore.


Rest in peace, sweet Sugar, and have lots of fun playing at the rainbow bridge.

{{{hugs}}}

:(

[zippy-kat]

Oh my goodness, Liz!! I am so sorry to hear that one of my favorite pet talkers has lost a member of her family.

If there is anything I can do, please don't hesistate to contact me.

Hugs and prayers being sent across the miles.

Rest sweetly, Sugar. :(

[krazyaboutkatz]

Liz, I'm so sorry to hear about Sugar's passing. :( RIP sweet Sugar. You'll always be missed. {{{HUGS}}}

Dear Liz ~

Fret not - Dear lil Sugar Man knows he wasn't alone -
You were there With Him In Spirit,
and I'm sure God was holding his paw, too.

Rest in Eternal Peace, Dear Sugar Man,
and Enjoy the company of all our other Departed FurKids
who share a place with you at the Rainbow Bridge.

Loving {{{Hugs}}} to you, Liz.

:( /s/ Phred

[Karen]

Oh dear Liz, Sugar's sudden illness and death reminded me of a friend of mine's beloved dog Tucker who also suddenly got sick and died - it turned out he had been poisoned, probably someone put out poisoned meat for coyotes, as my friend lives in a pretty rural area. Tucker will probably be among the first to greet Sugar when he arrives at the Rainbow Bridge, as he liked kitty-cats, and knew they were his friends.

Phred is right, Sugar knew most of all that you loved him, and he'll be with Buddy to greet YOU some day at the Rainbow Bridge yourself.

Poor sweet Sugar, he'll live forever in your heart, and in all our memories of your stories of him.

[lovemyshiba]

I'm so sorry to hear about Sugar, Liz.
I don't visit the cat side often, but Sugar sounds special.

May he rest in peace, and play hard at the bridge.
:( :( :( :(

[shais_mom]

LIz,
you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Godspeed to the bridge sweet Sugar

Poem For Cats

And God asked the feline spirit
Are you ready to come home?
Oh, yes, quite so, replied the precious soul
And, as a cat, you know I am most able
To decide anything for myself.

Are you coming then? asked God.
Soon, replied the whiskered angel
But I must come slowly
For my human friends are troubled
For you see, they need me, quite certainly.

But don't they understand? asked God
That you'll never leave them?
That your souls are intertwined. For all eternity?
That nothing is created or destroyed?
It just is....forever and ever and ever.

Eventually they will understand,
Replied the glorious cat
For I will whisper into their hearts
That I am always with them
I just am....forever and ever and ever.

Goodbye my sweet friend Sugar. I'll meet you at Rainbow Bridge.

Oh Liz I am so sorry about Sugar. Thanks for sharing that poem, it's beautiful. I know Sugar will be forever happy at RB, he has lots of wonderful new friends there.

[gini]

Liz, I sit here with tears in my eyes for you. Everyone is right, we love these guys so much that they become a part of us that can never be separated again.

Dearest Sugar, I hope that you will meet up with my own precious Sugar - because you are identical.

Play, have fun, because in our own time, we will join you someday.

[K & L]

Oh how horrible. I can feel your pain. We lost our Calvin to a similar situation. One day he was fine, and the next day he was gone. He lost control of his upper body. All tests showed nothing wrong. The only way we would know was to do an autopsy, which was too expensive ($500) for us. I'm so sorry.

[Cataholic]

Oh, Lizbud, I am so sorry to hear about Sugar. What an awful, awful loss. My heart goes out to you at this difficult time. RIP, Sugar, and play merrily at RB.

OMG. I'm sitting here crying over your sudden loss of sweet Sugar. What a shock! Now I'm thinking I really should get Mishi's teeth done, even though I can't afford it. I'm taking him in tomorrow for a nail clip and will ask the vet if she will work out payment terms.

Rest in peace at RB, little Sugar. Say Hi to my Goldie.

They will not go quietly,
The cats who've shared our lives.
In subtle ways they let us know
Their spirit still survives.
Old habits make us think
We hear a meow at the door.
Or step back when we drop
A tasty morsel on the floor.
Our feet still go around the place
The food dishes used to be,
And, sometimes, coming home at night,
We miss them terribly.
And although time may bring new friends
And a new food dish to fill,
That one place in our hearts
Belong to them...
And always will.

Oh, Liz, I am so sorry for the loss of your dear little Sugar. What a heartbreak. I know how you treasure your fur kids and are so in tune with them to know immediately that there was a problem. Please know that we care very deeply.

[smokey the elder]

I just found out about poor Sugar! I'm so sorry. Godspeed to the Bridge, handsome white kitty.

I am so sorry to read this!!!

My most sincere condolences on the sudden loss of your precious Sugar. May God comfort you in this very difficult time.

Rest in sweet slumber, dear Sugar.:(

[lizbud]

I went to the Vet Clinic to pick up the cat carrier & to pay the
bill for Sugar's treatment. The receptionist could not locate the
carrier & said the Dr. had not made out the bill yet, so I waited
for a few minutes. Dr. Walthers came out to the front office &
gave me the carrier & talked again about Sugar. He went over
the results of the post mortum tests with me again. He said
that Sugar could have walked through a toxic substance and
then licked it off his paws. Whatever it was, the result was very
fast acting & did not show up in the stomach contents.It was
systemically absorbed. Dr. Walthers remembered Sugar from
when I found him & first brought him in for an exam when I
first found him almost two years ago. Well, Sugar's gone from
me now, but I'll never forget him.I know he must have been
somebody's cat before he went missing. He was so appreciative
of just having food,shelter & someone to trust to give him head
pats , ear scritches & talk to him about his day when they got
home at night. He'll never be absent from my heart. I'm so glad
he wandered into my life, Thank you all for your sweet words &
kind thoughts about sweet Sugar man.

[Kirsten]

I'm so very sorry to read about this! :( :( How very sad! :( :( :(

R.I.P. Sugar!

It has been six months since my kitty Sugar made his journey
over Rainbow Bridge. I wanted to post a poem in remembrance
of my sweet little Sugar Man. This is a poem that Zippy Kat posted
at his passing & it expresses my feelings very well. I Love you Sugar. Thanks for passing by my way in life.

[Felicia's Mom]

I know what you are going through.

Just remember, Sugar is only gone in body; his spirit is still with you.

[lizbud]

I was sweeping out the garage last week & moved an old
empty computer box that sits under the kitty window perch.There behind the box were big tuffs of white fur.:( Sugar used to sit
and groom himself there. I moved the box back to it's place and
left the fur there.:( We never forget them do we? Be happy my
little Sugar man.

[catmandu]

Sweet Sugar , is of course in our prayers , and we are hoping that once his teeth have been taken care of m, that he will be his old Sweet Self! John had the same problem last year , and was all right , but only he lost , all but 2 of his teeth! Prayers are coming from The Found Cats Hotel!

[catmandu]

I am sorry , I missed the thread where Sugar passed on. We are so sorry about this , I shold have checked the previous pages first. Sugar was a good Cat , and judging by his photo a happy Cat. The Cats on the Rainbow Bridge have welcomed Sugar to the fold , and once again condolences and apologies!
