Lillycat's Gracie

[Cataholic]

I am so sad to relay that we lost the 5 month old tabby kitten on Wednesday. Gracie came to Lillycat through my sister, Jessica. Jessica had found her in a gas station parking lot, sitting there, with her head on the pavement. She was very sick.

Lillycat nourished her back to health, and had her spayed a week ago Friday. Things went drastically wrong. Gracie had a chronic condition, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and as a result of the stressors of the spay, went into heart failure. We tried everything possible, everything, and sadly, she just wasn't getting any better. We had her PTS on Wednesday. The vet tech said, "she was SO ready".

So sad, such a short life for such a dear little girl. Even at the cardiologists, undergoing a ultrasound, she purred and purred.

She really brought some spice into a house of older cats, and we all miss her dearly.

Gracie, in such a short amount of time, and for one so tiny, you made such an impact on us.

She was lucky to be with people who cared before her short life ended. She is now a healthy little kitty @ the RB. She is now a little guardian angel!!

[Catty1]

It is said so often, but so true...that this little one at least knew love and care, and had something to PURR about!

She was loved, and she loved in return.

I am so sorry she went so young, and had all those conditions wrong with her.


She is a healthy and happy kitten again, frisking at the Bridge!

{{{{hugs}}}} to Lillycat...condolences to everyone.

I'm so sorry about Gracie, who knew "grace" and love and kindness even if only briefly. She'll get to play after a long rest and she now knows peace.

I'm so sorry to hear this.:( RIP sweet Gracie.:(

[AbbyMom]

I'm so sorry she was with you such a short time. Play hard at the bridge, Gracie. You were not with us long, but you were well loved.

Our deepest Sympathies go out to Lillycat and Jessica, and to the Lillycat Tribe,
on the loss of poor little Gracie. :(

A Huge Thank You for the Rescue and the Recovery Team for saving the lil Kid -
*purring* during the ultrasound - She KNEW she was Loved!

My guess is God needed an Activities Director for the Older Kat Retirement Center at
the Bridge ... sounds like Gracie was a natural for the position.

SAFE Trip the THe Bridge, Gracie - we'll all miss you down here on the Durt Ball.

[Edwina's Secretary]

Godsped little Gracie....it sounds as if you did indeed "grace" the lives of others during your short visit!

[Donnaj4962]

Rest in Peace sweet little Gracie.

[shais_mom]

[Felicia's Mom]

I am sorry to hear this. May she RIP.

[sasvermont]

Rest in peace - another furry life gone to the bridge.

[Barbara]

I am so sorry for little Gracie and for Lillycat and all your family. But I am glad Gracie had not to go in this parking lot but was loved and had some good times.

[Killearn Kitties]

It is so terribly sad when such young ones have to go. I am so sorry for the loss of Gracie, but so grateful for all that your family did.

[Logan]

Lillycat and Johanna, I am so sorry that Gracie left you too soon. :( I like the idea of her livening up heaven, though, with all of our darlings who got there before her. :)

[sasvermont]

Say hi to Miley girl for me. Give her a kiss for me. Hope you had a safe trip to RB and you'll be pain free forever and ever.

[Randi]

I'm so sorry to hear about Gracie, it just seems so unfair! :( You did all you could, and I'm sure she felt your love.

Rest in peace sweet girl - you will be missed, but not forgotten.

(((hugs)))

[rg_girlca]

I am so sorry to hear about Gracie. :(

How sad to lose such a precious little one after nursing her back to good health. You just never know when you do rescue what kind of underlying problems they may have. She sure was a lucky little girl to have someone who cared and loved her in her short time.

Rest in Peace little Gracie and enjoy your time on the RB.

[phesina]

Rest in peace, dear little kitten Gracie. You were well loved and cared for in your short life. My deepest sympathy to your family, who did everything they could for you.
