Prayers for Tigger (UPDATE 10-16-06)

I am so sad for you. {{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}

Prayers for an easy passing at the right time.

I am so sorry.(((HUGS)))
You and Tigger will be in my prayers.

That Truly Is The Moment That All Pet Lovers Dread, When Your Vet Says That Theres No Hope.
I Have Sadly Experience That Several Times, And Its Harder Every Time.we Know How Much Tigger Means To You, And We Know When The Time Comes You Will Let Her Go, And Be Without Pain.
Our Prayers Are Coming To You Both.

Prayers for as long as you need them. I'm so very sorry to hear about Tigger.

What a beautiful Tigger you have. My eyes are tearing up for you and your precious companion. I was in your shoes about 3 months ago and know how difficult it is. You have given Tigger a wonderful home with love and companionship; she has been a very blessed kitty who has brought you enormous joy. This is the part of pet ownership that is the hardest for all of us. My thoughts are with you and Tigger so that her passing may be peaceful and your sorrow lessened.

Oh Meg, I'm so sorry to hear about Tigger. :( We are here for you honey. Take that special time with her and love her like you have for 13 years. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers. You've got my number if you want to talk.

I'm so sorry, Meg. Tigger is not the kitty of yours that I would have expected prayers for, but since she and you need them, you can be sure they are on their way.

I'm hoping you have a good last few days with her and then rejoice that she will be reunited with her beloved Tony.

:( :( :( {{{{hugs}}}}

I'm so sorry, Meg. I will be praying for Tigger and you. Also sending lots of good thoughts too.

Lots of Hugs,
Willie

Meg I'm so sorry. You and Tigger will be in my thoughts and prayers.

For the last 3 days Tigger has been declining. She has stopped bathing and is eating and drinking very little. It has been in the back of my mind since yesterday that something is very wrong.

Tigger has always been a very tiny cat...you can always feel her spine but yesterday it was different...I could feel every bone in her spine and back end. She has always slept between Mark and I and last night she did not move from the couch.

I called the vet this morning and I have just returned....she is full of cancer. Her intestines and spleen, there is nothing surgically or chemotherapy wise that can be done. I had Dr. Berard do x-rays and blood work to see where we stand with that and then I will make the decision after that. I left Tigger at the vets to get some sub-q fluids and I will go back to bring her home tonight....I want as much time left with her as possible.

I'm crushed. I can not stop crying. I have had Tigger for 13 years...she is my Princess.

Could I please ask for some good thoughts and prayers for her and for me as well. I know that I will not let her suffer, but I need to find the courage to let her go.

Thanks Meg and Tigger

First of all, I am sooooo sorry, so sorry for such a blow!!!(also sorry that I haven't learned how to properly quote here :( )

I'm getting what Pet Talk people refer to as LES ( better know as Leaking Eye Syndrome)

I will , most certainly, keep you in my earnest prayers for the courage to embrace this chapter in your life with Tigger! :(

Meg....do you have the test results yet?

I hope that fluids and maybe some steroids will keep her more comfortable for a while.

If the news was bad, it's totally understandable that you aren't posting.

I just hope the tests gave you and that sweet - faced girl a little more time!

HUGS

My heart aches for you and Tigger. It's the time cat-lovers dread the most. I will pray for Tigger and you, that you both find peace. Try to enjoy the time you two have left. Tigger knows you love her, all you have to do is be there for her.

((((hugs))))

I can already see that you have the strength to do what's right for Tigger. I look in Tigger's eyes and see she needs you and judgement.
May she have as many painfree and happy days as possible, and a gentle crossing, in her mama's loving arms.

Keep you eye on the prize...being reunited, healthy and happy.
One Fine Day.

UPDATE

Well I have some good news and some bad news....the bad news is that the x-ray shows that her spleen is twice the normal size due to the tumors and her chest is starting to fill with fluids. The good news is that speaking with her vet this morning her blood work shows that her kidneys and liver are still functioning normally. Her vet thinks that I could have as short as this weekend or as long as a month....but pretty much no longer than the month.

If she continues to eat I can give her some oral cortisone which should keep her comfortable (although we don't think she is in any pain right now) and it should also help to stimulate her eating.

She had a really good night at home last night, she has been eating quite well and has been resting a lot, but that is normal for her.

All the other cats in the house know that something is wrong and have been by my side constantly.

Thank you all again for your thoughts and prayers....they are truely appreciated. (((HUGS))) Meg and Tigger
