RIP Hairy Ari...
I got a very difficult call this morning from Dorothy, the woman who adopted Ari.
Ari passed away last night. The vet determined it was an aneurysm. He was 9 years old.
Records show the age limit for breeds such as Air and MooShoo is 10. MooShoo would've been 11.
Ari, you were so loved, my precious boy. You came from a very crappy environment thanks to a hoarder in New Haven, to a very loving, caring home. You will never be forgotten.

Play hard at the rainbow bridge my love. Give MooShoo, Mollie Rose and Marina Mar all my love.:love::love:

:( :( Donna, I am so very, very sorry to read this. I remember Ari, and the part you played in his life was very special. I fear helpful words fail me on this run of bad luck for you :( - as a friend I can only offer my most heartfelt condolences and strong wishes for your luck to change very soon. I'll be keeping you and all of your kitties in my thoughts. (((hugs))) :love:

Our Awesome Angels Companions Angels Welcoming Commitee are meeting with Ari now and Ari is getting his wings of Silver and Gold now, making him an Official Awesome Animal Angel.:cool:
What a Handsome Cat Ari is , and how wonderful it is that he found such a Great Furr Ever Home after that rough start.
He certainly will be welcome amid All of Our Awesome Friends and he will be able with their help to find a place where Ari can reunite with his Family in Paradise.
One Fine Day:love:

So sorry to read this Donna. It must have been very quick, which is a blessing in itself, and he didn't linger and suffer. None the less, it's always difficult to accept. I never knew that these cats had such a relatively short life span, as compared to others.
RIP Ari. :love: You will be missed..........
-
hugs, hugs, hugs...Ari would have lived a much shorter and miserable life if not for you, Donna. He lived his life with you and his furrever home where he was loved and cared for.
So many losses for you...but so many lives made wonderful because of you.:love:
-
I am so sorry to read this, Donna. Like Ms. Z, words fail. You brought light into Ari's life, and I am sure you will be reunited. Hugs to both you and Dorothy.
-
I am so sorry to hear this! RIP Beautiful baby! Play hard at Rainbow Bridge.
-
I'm sorry Ari has gone; as others have said, though, if not for you Donna his life would have been much more sad. Please take some comfort in that.
RIP, dear Ari, and Peace to all who loved you. Play well at the bridge.
-
Thanks everyone. Ari was very special and a bit "odd" looking. But he was a wonderful, loving cat who was cherished by both me and Dorothy.
-
Donna, I'm so sorry to hear this sad news.:( RIP sweet Ari.:( My thoughts and prayers are with you and Dorothy during this difficult time. Please take care. (((HUGS)))
Is there a reason why Sphynx's life span is usually only for 10 years? Just curious.
-
I'm so sorry about Ari. He was well loved at the end, to make up for his rough start.
-
Losing 5 cats (including the two 2 day old babies) in less than 6 months has taken it's toll on me.
I looked up the life span of a Sphynx and it says they have the same span as any other cat. It just seems very strange that both MooShoo and Ari died of the same thing (aneurysms) around the same age. I'm, wondering if it has something to do with in-breeding.
My heart is broken again (still).

RIP Ari. Now you can join Moo at the Bridge and play all day long! I am so sorry for you, Donna. I can't imagine what it must feel like to lose that many precious babies in such a short time. <<hugs>>
-
Oh, Donna, I am so very sorry for you and Dorothy both over the loss of your beautiful, precious Ari. Thanks to both of you, he came to know what home and love and safety and comfort are. God bless you both for all you did for him.
And an extra God bless to you, Donna, for so much you have done for so many, only to suffer so much loss over such a short time. My cats and I surround you with many ~~~~~PURRS~~~~~ and {{{{{{HUGS}}}}}} of comfort and sympathy.
Rest in peace, lovely Ari. You have many friends to get to know at the Bridge as you await seeing your beloved Meowmies again. You are together always.
