My sweet little Amy crossed to the bridge this morning. Her health started to decline during the summer and it had been so hard for her to even walk across the floor. As time passed, she continued to decline. I am not sure if it was her CH that brought her down but I feel like it was.. I knew this winter would be extreemly hard on her and it was harder than I expected. It knocked her down and she couldn't get up. She was in pain and every breath was a struggle for her. I cried many nights, begging her to fight and get better but I realized it wasn't going to happen. About 3 days ago, she just stopped eating and drinking. Last night, I promised her if she didn't go on her own last night, I would end her suffering today. I called the vets office and they took her right in.

Oh, Laura, I am so very, very sorry. The love that you and Amy have shared has been deep and beautiful, and it lives on always. It has shined through brilliantly every time you have ever posted about her here, Laura.

Sweet, beautiful Amy had a long and valiant run, showing us all how to live with disability with grace and energy. She has been an inspiration to us all. Thank you, Amy, for teaching me about Cerebellar Hypoplasia so I was ready to welcome Elmer and Bob into my family when they let me know they were looking for homes.

Rest in peace, darling beloved blessed Amy, whole and healthy again at the Rainbow Bridge. You are there with many friends, and you will welcome your beloved Laura Home.. One Fine Day.

Deepest sympathy to you, Laura and your family and all who love her and grieve her so deeply. May God bring peace and comfort to you.

:love::love::love::love::love::love::love::love:

So sorry for your loss, Laura. You and Amy helped educate many of us here on PT about CH kitties. Her determination and spunk were highlighted in so many of your posts.

RIP Amy.

Heroic Amy - showing your mom that you could do anything you put your mind and heart to. :love::love:

Laura, how absolutely heartbreaking...you did right by sweet Amy, encouraging her and giving her every chance. If Amy's love for you could have saved her, she would be here.

Be at peace, sweet Amy. Well done, darling; well done. :love:

I am sorry to hear that you had to let your girl go. It was difficult, at best. She is out of pain now. You did the right thing. She is up there with all the other PT kitties and doggies and pets. Happy Trails, Amy.

We laid Amy to rest yesterday right next to Boo. I laid her on her favorite bed that she loved so much, wrapped in her favorite blanket. (You old PT'ers will remember this bed that I made for her and how much she loved it and she STILL used it!)

How a person could miss one so much? I reckon it is because I spent so many years worrying about her, constantly checking on her to make sure she was alright.... It comforts me that she is next to Boo. What I didn't tell you all is that the vet refused to charge me for that visit. They knew how special Amy was not just to me but to everyone who met her (including them) and they kept her until we were ready to bury her....

I am so very sorry for your loss. I always loved hearing stories about Amy and how strong of a bond the two of you had. She is at peace now, and able to run and jump and play! RIP sweet Amy... and please send Meowmie a sign that you are okay.

(((hugs))) to you Laura.

Laura, I am so sorry that Amy has gone to Heaven. I know that you will see her again. I know she will be waiting for you, ready to be pet and to give you more unconditional love when you eventually arrive.

My heart aches for you. I know how special she was. I am glad she is next to Boo. ((Hugs)) to you.

I am so sorry to read about Amy. But I will tell you that you and Amy inspired me to take on the challenge (and love) of a CH kitty. Her legacy is in place because there are now 3 CH kitties living with my herd.

I am so sorry to read of Amy's journey to Rainbow Bridge. I learnt so much about CH from Amy and she was the first cat that I had ever seen with this condition.
Rest Peacefully Amy, you were a little start with a big heart xxxxxxxxx

I am so sad to hear that you have lost Amy. I think you are right, it must be even more difficult to lose one that you have spent so much time worrying over.
Rest in peace with your brother, beautiful girl.
