I am so sorry that all the medical care and PT prayers and well wishes couldn't save Anika. She is at peace now, and may you also find peace knowing that she will be playing and healthy once again at The Bridge.
RIP little Anika. :love:

Oh Melissa the Crew and I are so so sorry. She is with out pain and problems now.
As too the donations, remember you still have the vet bills to pay. I just sorry that we Could not help more. But like ET some times it's out of our hands.

:( Oh I am so so Saddened to read this.. RIP wittle Anika.. Bigg Huggss Melissa

I was with Anika today as well as my husband and my mom.

We got to spend about an hour with her before the whole thing took place and it was very hard, she was yellow from the jaundice but now she is sleeping peacefully and playing somewhere. I would of done the ultrasound but from what the vet said she needed intensive care right away and that meant tubes in her nose and an iv. The vet said she could keep her alive and I didn't want her to suffer. She was very peaceful for me it was so hard and I'm going to miss her so much. Sometime I will post something in the cat memorial section but for now I can't.

I will use the donations I've received towards vet bills and if anyone would like theirs back please feel free to PM me I understand.

Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart, Melissa

My husband would like to write something as well:

This is Rob, Melissa's husband. I just wanted to say a heartfelt thanks to all of you who have helped my wife and I through all of this. I know that many of you know the heartache we are feeling right now, and I want you all to know how appreciative we are for all of your help. We did for Anika the last kindness we could, and though our time together was too short, I know I will never be able to look at another cat without thinking of my baby girl and those beautiful, piercing green eyes. Thank all of you for all you have done.

:( Huggss for you Melissa & family.. Anika is of course Playing at the Bridge.. The RB Angels have come got her & taking Anika to the Golden Doors.. She is with all the other PT Beloved Babies Now.. Corinna will rock Anika for a while to settle her & then All the PT Angels will be playing in the wind & in your Hearts Melissa.. God Bless You All.. I cant see to write anylonger due to the tears.. RIP Wittle One Anika

Melissa and Rob,

My heart is aching for you today; I hope it helps to know that you did everything you could for Anika, and that she knew to the very end how much you loved her.

You're in my thoughts and prayers -- hang in there.

Hugs,
Diana

I'm so sorry. I'm not very good with words at times like this but I can say that from your posts you've given Anika more love and care than many non-PT cats have ever gotten. You've done what you could do for her, tried your best and gave her love until you kindly helped her to the RB. That's the best thing a cat could ask for in a human. She was very lucky to have you for her owner. I'm sure my Dusty is welcoming her to the RB and playing with her right now. My deepest sympathies for you and your family.

Dearest Melissa and Hubby, i am so very sorry for your loss, may you both find comfort here on PT to help you through this, your'e furbaby will be at peace,now happily frolicking amongst the fields at the Rainbow Bridge, RIP little girl, and HUGS to you both.:love:

I am so sorry to hear about Anika. This is almost exactly what happened to my Finnigan last year it's like going through it all again, she even looks a lot like him.

Oh dear God, I am so sorry. :( I have not posted, but I know your pain.

RIP Anika. You will never be forogtten.

I'm so sorry about poor Anika. :(

My heart is so heavy for both of you right now. Anika knew to the end how much she was loved and her passing was peaceful and comfortable...that is the best you could do for her. Remember the good times and know that she is happy and you will see her again!

OH NO!!! I am so sorry to hear this sad news! I wish there was something I could say to help ease the pain. I hope that you'll remember the happy times and that those memories will bring you comfort.

Dear Melissa & Rob, {{{{{HUGS}}}}}

I SO know what you've gone thru and are going thru. A few years ago a stray came into my life, a white and gray boy who I named Baby Boy. He was already neutered. Some one moved away and just left him to fend for himself outdoors.

He was a bad boy, marking everything in sight—inside as well! But he made up for that by being a love bug and a playful bugger. The vet estimated his age as between 6 or 8 yr.

About 2 years after he came he started to get sick, similar to your baby Anika. I did what you did. Vet visits, lab work, the A/D food, force feeding…. But there came a time that I had to make the decision. It was hard in a way, but then again I didn’t want Baby Boy to suffer anymore than he was. Friends kept telling me that I did all I could do for him and that was more than his previous owner. That comforted me, knowing that I gave him a better life than if he were outside alone.

I know it’s hard and it hurts, it hurts every time. You’re not human if it doesn’t affect you.

Know that Anika had your TLC and continue to give that TLC to your other babies! And don’t be surprised if they return it. They have an uncanny way of knowing when you need comforting and TLC.

I'm so sorry to read about Anika. I haven't posted before, but I've been following this thread and wishing the best for you.

It is so very very hard to let go. Still, you loved her and did right by her.

RIP little one.
