I am so sorry to hear that Shemp has crossed to the rainbow bridge, but I'm sure he's there somwhere amongst a pile of cats having a cuddle and having a nice rest with all the others, his friends that he can meet again and talk about their dad and the good old days, and speak of the day when he will meet you again.
My most hearfelt wishes to you Gary, you are a super pawpa to all your cats and Shemp loved you dearly. Shemp is one of the first siamese/tonkinese cats that I encountered on Pet Talk and I'll never forget him. He also introduced me to the phrase 'meezer' which I'd never heard before!
You will be missed by all Shemp, Rest In Peace
Love Kate, Jack & Sunny

Gary,
I'm so sorry for your loss. And like Catty1 said, you have absolutely nothing to forgive. You gave Shemp the love and care that he deserved. It was time for Shemp to pass over and not feel pain any longer. That was a very unselfish act for you to do and very difficult, I'm sure!

Gary, I am so sorry to hear about Sam (Shemp)'s passing. You did what was best for him out of sheer love for your friend. You did not want to see him in pain, so you did the right thing. He is in a better place now at the bridge along with all those that have gone before him, and he will be waiting to greet all who will arrive , when it is time. You have so many wonderful photos and many more fond memories, and that is most important.
Take care, and don't be hard on yourself.

I am very sorry to read about your beloved Shemp going to RB. :( I hope he will meet up with my recently departed Muskrat and they will adjust together to the bounty of health and rejuvenation they are now experiencing.
We are left feeling so much grief, and I so understand your hope that Shemp will forgive you . . . I beg of the same from Muskrat. I think they will. Blessings to you, and RIP handsome Shemp.

Gary, I am willing to bet that Shemp understood and accepted your decision. :) Do not worry, your cat knows your love for him!

I am so very sorry, Gary. RIP Shemp.

Gary, I'm so sorry to hear about Shemp's passing.:( Now he's painfree and not suffering any more. You did the right thing. RIP sweet Shemp.:(

Rest In Peace, dear Shemp. Your daddy had the guts to do the very best thing anyone could for you.
Gary, It takes a lot of love to let your beloved pet go, but there's always second-guessing. Not having the money to send them for further testing is sometimes a blessing in disguise. Whenever those thoughts get to you, just remember how he was, hiding in the bathtub, unable to eat.. miserable and in pain.
I don't mean to bring that heartache back to you, but to remind you of why you gave him that final release. You did the right thing. I have to keep repeating that to myself, as I just went through the same thing with my beloved 16 year old Runner. Bathtub and all.
Gary, May all of your angels gather close to you at night, protect you from all harm and fill your dreams with beautiful memories.

I'm so sorry about Shemp. He and Moose can start up catpiles at the Rainbow Bridge. I'm sure he's grateful for your last kindness.

All the Meezers are singing their songs for Shemp.
I literally saw the Rainbow that Shemp was riding on, yesterday in Florida. I knew it meant something. It went almost straight up into the heavens.
He is safe and well there, and waiting for you Gary.
One Fine Day.
Godspeed to the Bridge, Meezer man, Shemp

Oh Gary I'm so sorry. You gave him a good life and now you gave him Peace. There is no reason to feel you let him down. Hugs to you.
Rest in Peace Shemp.

Godspeed Shemp! Gary..the problem with loving is that it also means losing....but what Shemp knew was the loving....

I am so sorry to hear of Shemp's passing. If only they could stay with us until it is our time to pass. RIP, Sweet Shemp.

I am sorry to read of your loss. You share such a wonderful bond with your cats...the hard part of that is how bad it hurts when they go on where we can't yet follow. Loving thoughts to you and your family of cats.
