Thread: I fear that my senior Boo is on his decline; *Update #109; 10/13

    I fear that my senior Boo is on his decline; *Update; he's gone; #163; 11/1

    It's been 7 months since his love Pigeon made her trip to the Bridge but he still calls for her every day and night. He goes all through the house, still hoping to find her and at night, his calls echo eerily, causing me to cry and go to him to comfort him but he won't have it. He turns away from me, sometimes even runs. He's eating and drinking and using the litter box w/no problems. He's just plain heartsick. He's nearly 19 now and the sadness in his eyes is just too much sometimes. Please spare a prayer for my blackie Boo Bear.

    Oh Mary, this is just so sad and so heartwrenching to see. Lots of prayers coming from me.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Prayers for sweet Boo. Perhaps Pawsitive Thinking or Nancy Efrusy could have a chat with him?

    HUGS, dearest Boo.

    Mary, I'm so sorry to hear this. He and Pidge must've really had a very strong bond. I hope he'll be able to calm down soon. Do you think that maybe she's been visiting him? Please take care. (((HUGS)))

    Poor old Boo. Mary, it must be so sad for you to see him like this, and not to be able to do anything for him.

    Come on Boo - try to be just a little happy, and make Mom happy. You'll be with Pidge again one day, but it's just not time yet.

    He's on my lap right now as I type. He's always been a needy boy, a lap cat, but when he's looking for Pidge, he wants to be left alone. He and Pidge were inseparable. They were together most of his life; he was barely a year old when I rescued her and he's nearly 19 now. She loved him so much; if he left the room, she was right behind him. People would comment on it and say "Look at how she looks at him!". It was though they were in love. For a while I had sightings of her but I haven't seen her lately. Maybe that's why his crying has increased. Maybe he saw her, too, and wants to see her again. He's such a good boy; I want his last years to be happy ones.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Does Boo know that Pidge had passed on? Sometimes if they get to smell them after they've passed, they can have closure like we humans need.

    My Poor Little Precious was the same when her Sam aka Shemp passed away.
    She was so sad and would walk around with herr tiny miiiaoow looking for her love.
    I wonder if adopting a Lady Cat might help, a friendly Lady Cat so Boo will not be lonely. Precious had Moose, Joseph or the Mighty Meezers to comfort her.
    It's not good being a Lone Cat.

    I'm so very sorry. It is so hard to watch these changes which already mean that the friend we had before is no longer there.
