Iris is now not eating and having accidents. She won't eat enough to even get all of her meds into her. We've made the awful decision to have her PTS tomorrow. I keep second guessing myself. I know the end is inevitable, I just didn't think it would come this soon!

Oh my, I am so sorry to hear this news. (((Hugs))) to you and your family. Iris knows that you have done all that you can for her. May her crossing be painless and peaceful.

HUGS.

Her poor little body is starting to lose control of itself with the accidents...

I have been there, I know how it is...you have loved her and done everything for her that you could. She is much luckier than some kitties - she is blessed to have had you, and you her, no matter how long or short the time.

She will go to the Bridge surrounded by love, and not alone.

Please give her a kiss for me.

PT Prayers are with you for peace.

So very sorry to hear this. Her last months were filled with your love and caring for her. Tell her to look for Henry when she gets to the Bridge - he will show her a good time!

I'm so sorry, but please do not second guess yourself. You are only doing what is best for Iris. She knows you love her and will miss her, but she is letting you know it's time.

Iris, like the lovely flower
For which her beauty is named
Will not last in life forever,
Such beauty fleeting is
But in your heart's eye she'll be
As lovely as a flower ever
And though her life is fading away
Her beauty will last in your heart forever.

I am so sorry to hear about Iris. Don't punish yourself for making a decision that will ultimately be the kindest thing you can do for her. Just let her know that you love her.

(((hugs))) to both of you. :(

Your family will miss you but we all know that you will arrive at the rainbow bridge, all relaxed and happy and ready to play with all of your favorite cat buddies waiting for you there. You were loved Iris and your family will be very sad without you. Have a safe trip sweetie.

It's never easy to let them go but this is the last act of kindness that you will do for your sweet Iris. She knows how loved she is and we wish you peace during this difficult time and know that we're there w/you in thought. Thank you for doing the unselfish thing.

It's a stuff decision to make (we had to make that with RB Thumper) but may it be a comfort that she wont be in anymore pain & playing like a new kitten at the bridge. You made the right decision.

I'm very very sorry! It is such a hard decision to make. But the cat tells you when the time had come, and in your heart, you will know it.

I'm with you and Iris in my thoughts...

Sadly This Year I Had To Make That Decision With My Sweetest Little Ones Almond Rocca Baton And Precious So I Know How Gut Wrenching That Decision Is.
We Are Saying Our Pryaers For Iris And The Pet Angels Have A Delegation For Iris When She Crosses Over And Acepts Her Wings Of Silver And Gold.
She Knows That This Is A Tough Decision For You , But She Will Soon Be Out Of Pain. Sometimes Theres Just Nothing Else As Guardians That We Can Do.
We Are Sending Prayers For Iris And Your Family.

My very deepest sympathy to you and your family. If she's not eating or getting her meds in and she's having accidents, I think she's saying the time has come and she's ready. You've made the right decision, though we all know how hard it is to do.

Safe home to Iris on her journey to the Bridge, the one we will all make sooner or later. The love you and she share lives on, and One Fine Day you and she will be together again for always.

{{{{{HUGS}}}}} to you and soft caresses to your beloved Iris.

Toughest decision ever. Been there too many times with my dear sweet ferrets that had cancer. Please give Iris a kiss from me and wish her a safe journey to the bridge. Hugs for you, I know how hard this is.

LES. Often the right decisions are the hardest to make. Because of you, Iris knew what it means to be loved and cared for and there's no question that she loved you very much in return. Iris will always live in your heart!

My prays are with you, Iris and your family. It's a hard decision we all may have to face with having our animals but as much as we love them and care for them sometimes it's best for them. It's never easy. My prays that everything went smooth. May God watch over Iris.

Hugs,
Melissa
