I've always dreaded the day I would post this thread. But here it is. I let my Tazmoe go tonight. I can't even believe this.
I'll have to post more another day. I'm sorry. :(

I'm so sorry. It's an impossibly difficult decision, even when we know it's the right thing and the only thing that can be done.

RIP, sweet Taz. Brave boy, you touched a lot of hearts.

Sending you big hugs... Taz was one of my favorite PT kitties... he and my Scooter Bug were both born in 1995 and have such similar looks, that he stole my heart from the beginning.

I'm not very good with words, but know that I am thinking of you. ((Hugs))

My heart plummetted when I saw this. I am SO sorry about your dear adorable Taz. You were so supportive when Sassy died, now it's my turn to repay you. PLEASE let me know if there is anything I can do. :love: You'll get tired of hearing "it was the right thing to do", I know I was but the realization that it is true will help. I promise you he is happy now. He was happy with you for all the years you had him, he lived a long great life with you.

Rest in peace, handsome Taz. Please show mom you are okay.


I know the heart-ache and I realize it's the worst feeling in the world and that it is so raw for you, and not being a very emotional person didn't help me at all, please Cindy if you have to let it out to us or you can PM me, I didn't and it hurt me even more. IT DOES help I promise. :love:

Cindy, I just now saw this and I had just commented on your other thread in cat general a little while ago. I'm so sorry.:( I know how you're feeling but things will get better. If there's anything I can do or if I can offer you emotional support you can pm me any time or even call me. Just try to remember the good times and know that he's now pain free and at peace up at the Bridge. RIP sweet Taz.:( You're in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Please take care.

My heart goes out to you. I know how you feel. The only thing harder than knowing your Taz crossed the Bridge is knowing that you made the decision to lead him there. Just know that Taz loved you and appreciated the love you gave him in return. He is now free to romp and play like a kitten again, without pain or discomfort.

Cindy honey, I'm so sorry about this. Taz was so special and the pain that you're feeling right now I'm sure is nearly palpable. What I say to people at times such as this is that you did the last act of kindness for Taz and he loves you even more for it. He will never ever leave your heart nor ours either. Time will come when the pain will subside but the memories of Taz will grow and be a comfort to you. We love you, Cindy. Prayers are going up right now for your peaceful heart. RIP, Taz boy. Come and purr in your mom's ear tonight to let her know that you're ok and are patiently waiting for your reunion as Gary would say, one fine day. :love:

I am so sorry to read about Taz. I know this doesn't help right now, but you made the best decision you could in a bad situtation and he is thankful to you right now. He is pain free and at the Bridge playing with all of our loved ones that have gone before him. He is now waiting for the day when you will be together again :(

I am so sorry you had to lose Taz; it's so painful, I know. I know everyone's said it, but please be assured you did all you could and your decision was the right one. You gave Taz a wonderful life. (((hugs))):(

Godspeed to the Bridge, dear sweet Taz, and Peace to your family. Make sure to drift in once in a while and tell your Mom you're OK and playing at the Bridge.

Cindy - I was so saddened to read this. I've been following your account of Taz, and so hoping he would somehow bounce back, but I guess it just wasn't meant to be. I know how much you're hurting right now, since I've been there too many times myself. The pain eventually dulls and become bearable, but it never completely goes away, and I truly believe that our fur kids plan it that way so they can be with us forever. They don't want to leave, any more than we want them to go, and that little bit of sadness that remains, is the bond that can never be broken.

So RIP dear Taz, and check in with Mom occasionally to let her know that all is well. And to you Cindy - hugs and healing peace. :love:

We are so sorry to hear about Deat Taz.
That has to be the worst feeling in the world when a beloved Cat Companion ages before our eyes, and has to be assisted to be an Angel.
The Animal Angel Army has a special night planned for Taz on the French Riviera, and hes got the first place at the fanciest restaurant.
But he wont really be happy untiol hes with his family again , and he will find just the right spot where you all be together furrever.
One Fine Day.:love:

Taz_Zoee
07-03-2009, 10:48 AM
Thank you so much everyone. While the bleeding of my heart is no longer gushing, it is still painful.

I got Taz in September of 1995. My sister brought him home from work and I said "he's mine!". I called him Spazzy Tazzy because he was so full of energy and would tear around the house, up and down the stairs.
Taz has been through so much with me in almost 14 years. We've moved about 7 times together. Each time he would hide out for a couple weeks then be just fine. He was my rock when I was upset. I could be angry or sad and petting him would calm me down. He knew when I was upset and would come to me and sit with me.
He has put up with other animals, dogs and cats, in the places we've lived. The only animal he really bonded with was my mom's Min Pin, Kodi. I think it's because they were both so young together.
Taz is no stranger to the vets office. In the late 90's the vet told me he needed to lose weight. He weighed in at 21 1/2lbs. About 4 years ago he had to have one of his "fangs" removed. And a couple years ago he had a mysterious illness and lost weight. Only it was a little too much weight. He was down to about 12 lbs and that was too skinny for his body. Then in Nov of last year we went through his surgery to remove psuedo-cysts from around both of his kidneys. I believe (as Catty1 said) that may have been the start of his decline. Even though each time he was tested his numbers were "okay". I also believe the two latest additions to the household added more stress on him and that didn't help either.
Last night he weighed in at 6.8 lbs. There wasn't much of him left. So it was time to let him go. Unfortunately, I never saw it in his eyes like many of you said I would. Maybe it was just denial on my part, or he wouldn't let me see it. But the way he acted at the vets told me he was ready. Usually at the vets he will hide his head in the crook of my arm or in my jacket. Last night he laid out and had his head resting on the doctors hand. I said "oh, look how cute he looks". And the doctor said "yes, he is cute. But it's not Taz." I knew she was right. :( She was ready to send me home with some more fluids to get him through the weekend. But I couldn't do that. I didn't want to walk around the house and see him knowing he would be leaving me. I'd burst into tears every time I looked at him. That would add more stress to him. So I made the difficult decision to let him go right then. Bruce was unable to be with me, but that was okay. I was with him and that's all that matters.

Gosh, I am so sorry I am going on and on like this.

RIP my baby boy, Tazmosis, MoeMoe, Mosephine and several other names that would pop into my head with the moment.

Oh bless your heart! I have tears in my eyes reading your post about dear Taz.

I just have to believe that he really isn't gone - but right next to you in spirit and comforting you even as you shed tears.

I hope that all of the beautiful memories you have of him will overshadow
all of your pain and suffering.

It took courage to let him go to the Rainbow Bridge but be comforted that he is free and running around greeting everyone.

oh Cindy, my heart aches for you. I havent posted much lately but had read the thread on Taz's sickness and was so hoping that you had more time with him. He always knew love from you but yesterday, even though it hurts so much, you gave him the greatest love of all and he will be forever greatful to you for letting him go. He is still with you always in all your memories and in your heart.

Rest in Peace sweet Taz...give mommy some special sign from you so she knows you are still with her.

Duke, Champ, Chopper and Ryleigh send you warm puppy kisses.

Cindy, I'm so sorry!! Sounds like your Taz was terribly ill in the end. The part where your vet sad "Yes, he is cute. But it's not Taz." gave me major LES.

You gave him so much love and care, and he knew that when he went to the Bridge. I'm sure he's smiling down at you now.

R.I.P. Taz!

Cindy, I got your email and I sent you one back but I wanted to say goodbye to Taz on here. You have always brought me and tried to give me so much comfort through the years with the loss of my beloved babies. I loved hearing stories about Taz and seeing beautiful pics of him. When I think of you and Taz, I think of two peas in a pod, no one was better suited to each other than the two of you. Taz would not have had the love and the home that he did with anyone but you, you were his best friend!! The choices we have to make sometimes when it concerns our best friends are not always the ones we want to do, but we do them out of love, respect,trust and knowing that as much as we want to keep them with us forever that is just not possible. For you as much love, hugs and prayers as I can possibly give to you.

Taz, I was smitten with you the very first time I saw your picture, you could just see all your sassiness and the happiness you had. I am so very sorry you were so sick, but you are now at peace sweet boy, go and play with my Bei-jing and all the other kitties and have the best time. Try to let Mom know from time to time that you are okay. RIP Taz.

Thank you. :)

I didn't realize it would actually last this long, but I still see his last few moments here every night when I close my eyes to go to sleep. Of course the scare with Paizly didn't help much either.

Oh and Taz, thanks for helping me find Paizly Poo. I know you weren't very fond of her but I appreciate your help.

This morning was the first time I almost slipped. I was about to call Taz into the bathroom and I was going to open the window for him. He loved to sit in the bathroom window.

It certainly sounds like he was your true heart kitty and I know you will miss him terribly. I'm sure he had a grand reception at the RB and that some of the RB's newest members are showing him around ;) He'll always be looking over you as your furangel in heaven. Please know I'm thinking about you and sending gentle healing vibes during this difficult time.

I just down loaded the last picture I took of my Tazmoe. It's not much, but he was snoozing on one of the dog beds. He would usually go to this bed when I left the house in the morning. He was so asleep he didn't even move when I took this picture. His face is all tucked in under his paw. He did this quite often to block the light out. :) I took this picture probably a month or so ago.

It has been two weeks since I let you go, Baby Boy. I'm fine when I keep myself busy, but as soon as I slow down (or climb into bed) it all comes rushing back at me.

I miss you cuddling with me. I miss our one-on-one time in the mornings. I miss you meowing at me becuase your "starving". I even miss you growling and hissing at Paizly (although I'm sure she doesn't). I miss you waking me up with your purr or a pat at 5am to feed you. Or if that didn't work, you'd go through the vertical blinds and make noise so I'd get up. You must have taught Paizly that, because she's doing it now. :)

I think Paizly still looks for you in your area in the dining room. Sometimes she'll sit there and stare into that room. I wonder if she sees you. Oh, the other day she sat in the bathroom next to the toilet just like you did too.

Zoee seemed a little depressed for a few days after you were gone. You were always here with her since her first day.

Ok, that's enough for now. I'm crying at work again.

I love you Tazmoe!!

07-16-2009, 11:38 AM
Cindy...I just read your last post, and you've got me tearing up, too:(...Your post sounds like it could have been written by me about a year ago when we lost our Billy...All the little things that your kitty did and that you did together is what you remember. And the fact that your other cats seem to look for and miss Taz:love: sounds familiar, too. One of our cats named Sam (she's 15) was really close to Billy, and had spent all but the first 4 months of her life with him, especially seemed (and still does sometimes) to really miss him. Time will help with that, but I know how difficult it is for you now. Two weeks is not a lot of time, and as tedious an expression as it is, "time helps" is true. Although I still cry sometimes when I am really missing Billy, those times don't come as often as they used to (thankfully), although I never stop missing him and I know I never will, but I am able to think of him most of the time now without tearing up. In the meantime, try to focus on your other pets, because having them really does help, bless their hearts. Having other pets to love is a blessing in its own way, and I'm sure they are aware that Taz is gone, and that you are upset. Cherish your memories of Taz, and remind yourself of where he is now...At the RB, healthy, happy and having a heck of a good time!:love: He'll always be with you and he'll always love you, and you will see him again one day...Hang in there...:)

I really avoid coming here, always afraid I will find out about loosing some of the babies we have come to know and love. It IS a part of life that we all experience. We ALL loved Taz too and we have suffered so many losses this month, it makes that pain deeper and harder to take.

That being said, Willy, Starr and Taz are all together watching over us that loved them and I am sure they are keeping a eye on Pet Talk and wondering what all this sadness and fuss is about. They have joined Catmandu's army of angels and having a great time.

RIP Taz!

Thank you. :)

My niece picked Taz up from the vet for me yesterday. His box is so small. I'm used to seeing larger boxes for dogs. But the box has a nice scrolly etching on the top and a plaque on the front with his name. I'll print out a picture to place on top of the box just like we have for DJ (Bruce's Cocker Spaniel) and they will sit on the shelf together.

Well Mr Moe, it has been two months (yesterday) since I said goodbye. Darn, and I'm still getting tears in my eyes, just typing this. I see your pictures pop up on the computer at home every once in a while and I smile. But the other day I saw two in a row and I just sat down and cried again. (darn it, I am again and I'm at work)
I have your picture as my desktop at home. The one of you peeking out from under the comforter when we first moved in with Bruce and DJ. I hope you and DJ are getting along up there. :)
I honestly do not think I can ever get another cat. Not only because Miss Paizly Poo is a little brat, but because I don't know that I could love another cat the same.
I do feel like you left part of your personality with Paizly. Since you've been gone she has begun to do things that remind me of you. It's so strange. She has taken over the cuddle time during my stretches in the morning. She now lays on me or the body pillow on the bed all the time. She meows her head off at me in the morning. Although you did it for food, she does it for attention.

I still feel like I might have been premature on letting you go. I hope I was not and that you understand.

Love you Moe Moe!

It has been 6 months (yesterday) since I let you go baby boy. I still wonder if I did the right thing. But there's nothing I can do about it now. :(
Yesterday a kitty named Hobbes came to the bridge. Be nice to him and show him the ropes. Don't be mean like you were to Paizly. :p

I miss you so much and still shed tears sometimes. I'm thinking of getting another kitty, but I'm not sure it's a good idea.

Love you Tazmoe!!

Aw, Cindy, it's tough, isn't it? I'm still looking for Pidge so I know exactly what you're feeling. I'm so used to lining up her meds and giving her lots of lovin' beforehand and when I don't see that sweet little face, it makes me sad. You did the right thing, Cindy; don't doubt yourself about that. Ending suffering for our beloved furkids no matter how painful it is for us is always the right thing even if it feels so wrong. My wise ol' green eyed lady is still learning the ropes from Taz and Puddy and Peeka and they're comparing stories and living the best life ever thanx to us and our unending love and loyalty to them. (((HUGS))) to you, sweetheart. :love:

Tomorrow will be 3 months since I lost Morgan. I can't believe how much it still hurts. They really wrap themselves around our hearts and just don't want to let go. Sometimes I wonder if that searing pain at the beginning is better than this dull ache and emptiness that is left now. Hugs to you.

The pain never goes away completely. It has been 18 months since Tomas went to the Bridge and 2 years since we lost Kitty. It still hurts sometimes, though our two new furkids, Buddy and Mau Mau, have helped ease the pain so much! They needed a home, we needed a cat. It worked out real well.:love:

Cindy, I know what you're going through because I lost my Starr a few days before your Taz:( so it's also been a little over 6 months for me also.:( Time will heal the pain but I know if I think and dwell about Starr or even my Pepper I'll start getting major LES.:( You and I both did the right thing for our babies even though it hurts so much. Now both of them are pain free and at peace and I know that we'll both see them again some day. Please take care. (((HUGS)))

Cindy, I really hate to hear this. I know it is very hard to lose a very loved pet. You know it was about a year ago that I lost sweet little Mario, my Capuchin Monkey. Sending you lots of hugs.

Today I would have been celebrating your 15th birthday. I probably would have given you some tuna as a treat. :)
I'm sure you know we just got a new addition and he is such a character. I just hope Paizly will come around. Maybe you could drop by and let her know it's not so bad. A little sibling can be a good thing.
In two and a half weeks I'll be back to post here. That will be one year since I said goodbye. Oh my, the tears are already starting. :(

Taz and my RB Rocky are up there having a ball and chasing fireflies and butterflies to their hearts content. You gave Taz a great life and the love that filled his heart and let him fly right up to the bridge. :love:

Cindy, I know how hard it is and I feel your pain.:( Taz knows that you'll always love him and you have many wonderful memories and will never forget him. It's also almost been 1 year since my Starr passed on but I cherish the time that I had with him. Please try to remember the happy times you had with him. This always helps me when I feel sad. Take care. (((HUGS)))

Well, yesterday was one year ago that I said goodbye to you Mr Moe. I couldn't bring myself to make this post yesterday. I think Jax is keeping me busy. He makes me smile and I often think of you when I look at him.
I know I said it before but Paizly is really stepping up and taking over things you used to do. She asks to sit in the bathroom window. She is having to deal with a younger sibling. She isn't all cuddly with him yet, but she does play with him (more than you did with her:p).

I want to thank you for sending us Jax. He fits into this house perfectly! He reminds us of you with his coloring, although he has more white than you and he is TINY!!!

I miss you Taz so much. There's times I get tears in my eyes when I think of you and that day one year ago. Like right now....:( It does help knowing you are happy and pain free at the bridge playing with the other animals there. Tell DJ hello for us, oh and let Starr know his meowmie misses him too.

Thank you! :) It actually made my heart jump a little when I saw his name pop up here again.

I think about him every day and sometimes still cry. :( It's supposed to get easier, but it is just becoming part of life now.

Hey Tazmoe!! This is your birthday month. I never knew exactly when you were born, but we put your birthday in June. I celebrate it June 15th.

I felt you visit me last night. I was in bed with the bedroom door closed and all the rest of the family (furkids included) were out in the other part of the house. I was just dozing off and I felt the covers move just like when one of the cats jumps up and lays on me. I looked, thinking Bruce may have opened the door and Paizly was joining me. The door was closed and I was all alone in the room. So I knew it was you coming to say hello. :)

Happy Birthday month, baby boy! I miss you today just as much, if not more, as I did the day I said goodbye.

Thank you Phesina and Moesha (good to see you on here Moe).

Well, today is officially two years since I said goodbye to my little boy. There still isn't a day that I do not think of you. Often times I wish I could go back in time and have you here again. Just yesterday a picture came on (I have my photos on slideshow as my screen saver) the computer of you laying on your back with your big fluffy tummy. I so badly wanted to snuggle in that tummy. You never used your claws on me when I did that. :)

I'm sure you and Starr are now welcoming the new comers to the bridge and showing them around. Oh and say hello to Phred for me. I'm sure you've met him too. :)

I love you Tazmoe!!

Cindy, I know how difficult it is to lose such a beloved cat.:( Although I don't always post on my cats memorial threads, I do think about them almost every day. I'm sure that they've all met Phred by now but I do wish that they'd come to visit me too. When it's time for us leave our bodies, we will rejoin them again. I hope that Paizly and Jax are able to give you enough kitty love and comfort these days. I don't know what I'd do without my current 6 furkids. Alani and Blaze have really helped me through my loss of both Starr and Sunny.:love: Please take care. (((HUGS)))

Thank you Tracey. I really does help having Paizly and Jax around. But, as I'm sure you'll agree, none of them can replace the spot in my heart for my original baby boy. I just made new room for them. :)

I started to read through this thread again before I posted. Decided very quickly that was not a good idea since I'm at work. Don't want to be in tears here at work.
Anyway, I can't believe it has been 3 years since I said goodbye to my baby boy. I still think about you constantly! I always compare things Paizly and Jax do or don't do to things you did or didn't do.
I believe you still come to visit. I think Paizly is most aware of your visits. She never meows and was walking around the house like she was looking for something the other day and she was meowing her head off. At least she is more comfortable when you visit, unlike that first time when she sat in one spot and would not move, only peak her head around the door frame and look down the hall.

Sometimes I wonder how you'd get along with Jax. He is such a brat to Paizly. I wonder if you'd smack him a good one and get the point across.

Say hello to all the PT pets and people up there at the bridge Tazmoe!:love:

Of course Taz comes to visit! He loves you always and knows you love him always. You and he have shared much comfort and happiness together, and that is eternal. You are both blessed to have each other forever.

God bless you and bring you peace and comfort.,
