Willy http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?152137-Willy-gifts&highlight=Willy went to the bridge this afternoon. This morning, he let us know that he was ready.
We will miss our sweet boy who only had 6 years on this earth.
We're keeping a close eye on his sister Willow. The pet communicator indicated that she may go into a depression after his passing.
Thank you for all your prayers and candles.

We are glad you had the time with him that you did, and were able to give him some good days toward the end. It is good that he let you know, and we are sure his is purring away at the Rainbow Bridge, getting some adoration from Phred, Corinna, my Uncle Mac and all the kitty lovers up there!
Our condolences, and give Willow a little extra love from me, okay?

I am so sorry you had such a short time with Willy.
It's always extremely difficult when we lose our babies..at any age, but this is just unfair.
Willy is not in pain, and however difficult it was to say good bye, take solace in the fact that he's free from it.
Rest In Peace Willy..you will be greatly missed.
:love:

Sleep sweetly dear Willy:love:. You didn't have nearly enough time with your family but the time you have was precious.
It is so hard to lose our little ones but to lose them so early in their life is heart wrenching:(. We lost our maine coon Roxy to renal failure at an early age and it broke our hearts.
Major hugs to you and your family.

Oh, no. Oh, NO. I am so so so sorry.:( Willy seemed like a happy soul - water and fish, pureed carrots, and rolling around and purring with acupuncture needles in him. :love:
It's clear he knew how loved he was, and that his humans would take care of his sister Willow. A caring sweet kitty.
Rest peacefully, Willy. I know you will keep an eye on your family and your sister.

Lisa, I'm so sorry you had to say goodbye to Willy. :( It's painful at any time, but it doesn't seem fair he had only 6 years with you.
You have done everything you could for him and he is at peace now. After a little rest, he will go and explore the RB with his new and old friends there and I hope he will send you a sign.
Rest in peace, Willy! :love:
(((hugs)))

So sorry that a miracle wasn't meant to be. Willy was way too young to have to leave, but he had a great time while he was here.
RIP Willy. I'm sure you'll find lots of things at RB to add to your collection of treasures - just waiting to show Mom and Dad - One Fine Day. :D:love:

Like others, I, too, was praying for a miracle. I know Willy knew how much he was loved, and he loved so much in return. May you be comforted by the many memories this beautiful boy created in your heart. Special pets to Willow.
Hugs to you, Lisa.

We never have enough time with our furry ones on this earth and your time with Willy was too short. May he rest in peace and enjoy the RB.

Willy is an Awesome Angel now touring Orando Forida, seeing Disney World , and having a good time flying about with his wings of Silver and Gold.
He certainly will miss his FurrEver Home, and the ones who loved him, and it is a shame that his stay was so short.
Willy will start his Awesome Angel Search for that one place where you can be reunired in love, and will come by and visit you and his sister Willow to see that you are all right, and wants you to know that you will be reunited in love.
One Fine Day:love:

I am very sad to hear that a miracle didn't happen for Willy. Poor Willy did not have a long life, but you made sure that he had a comfortable and happy one.
Deepest condolences to all who loved Willy. I hope Willow is bearing up.
So sorry to hear this, Lisa. ((HUGS))
Rest in peace, dear Willy.. You were such a lovely kitty. :love:

I'm sorry I didn't reply to this sooner, I haven't been online for a while.
I'm so sorry to hear that your sweet Willy has gone to the Rainbow Bridge.:(
I know you did everything you could for him, he was such a special kitty and he knew that he was loved.
Sending hugs your way.
(I always loved the stories about him bringing you random little gifts):love:

Happy 1st Bridge Day sweet boy
Memories of Willy ~
I’ll never forget the day you discovered your voice. Meezers have a reputation for being talkative, but you didn’t seem to get that memo. When you were almost 2 years old, you let out a tiny squeak while stretching and yawning. I laughed when you leapt up and looked all around to find out who had made that noise. :D I feel blessed that I was there to witness that historic (and hysterical) moment.
Every day was an adventure with you and goofy boy that you were, you made us laugh. Though, I’m afraid a lot of laughter was at your expense. Like the time you climbed into the big box that Dadcat had cut a round hole in. You kept popping your head up out of the hole. Your sister sat on top of the box and bopped you on the head every time. We had our own version of “Wack a Mole” that day.
And the time you flipped the empty laundry basket over on yourself and ran around the house bumping into walls. You earned the name “Willy Turtle” that day. :D
You had an amazing talent with remote controls. I don’t know how you did it, but you somehow always managed to hit some combination of buttons on the TV remote control with your big ‘ole feet that took us to stations or languages we didn’t know we had access to. But, I guess your best trick was when you stepped on the radio/stereo remote control and somehow set it up so that the radio came on every morning at 3:00 a.m. The reference manual was no help so we called the manufacturer to find out how to turn off the “timer” function. Turns out it didn’t have a timer! We had to unplug the system for several days to clear it. And then you did it again!!!!!!!!!
I miss the presents you used to bring me each night http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?152137-Willy-gifts ……… Well, not the live presents. I know it confused you when I ran around the house screaming like a total girl when you brought me a live, furry friend in the middle of the night. I do appreciate that you didn’t have the killer instinct but catching and releasing your little friends before the others could turn them into snacks, made for an interesting challenge.
Thank you for talking to the Pet Communicator. Yes, you were a mighty hunter and you had beautiful feet. I hope you’ve been reunited with your father (Black Tail, you called him) during the session.
We miss you sweet boy. You will never be forgotten. Willy Boy, Mama’s pride and joy……
Happy 1st Bridge Day

My dear Lisa, it doesn't seem a year, and yet it seems longer. Your love for Willy is so blatant; I know he's happily waiting for you at the Bridge. "Don't fret, Mom; I'm happy - and can't wait 'til you get here to share my happiness!" (Well, Willy, your mom's friends are willing to wait a while. ;) )
Your memories of him made me smile and cry at the same time; separation is always so hard - I know. I like to think that your Willy and my Willie (maybe there's a "Willy/Willie Club"!) are playing together, friends because we are. Merlin's there, too, of course, and your beloved Kuhio.
The pain eases, but the scars are always there, aren't they? You're not alone; we all know the pain of memories. May those memories bring a cleansing of pain.
Love,
Sharon
