Christofur

I have very sad news:

About 10:00pm the vet called me. Christofur was seizing again, more cluster seizures. This was after being monitored and medicated all day. And this time he wasn't urinating with it. Toxins could start building up.

He could have that happen again at any time.

All else they could suggest would be take him to the neurology clinic (40 miles away), which would be hugely expensive and very likely wouldn't come up with anything else to be done for him either.

I went to the hospital, held him and petted him for quite a while. He was barely conscious and kept having little mini-seizures from time to time. I said goodbye to him about half an hour ago.

I'm so sorry. I did the best I could, little Christofur. I love you so very much, and so do many others who never met you in PURRson but came to love your beautiful spirit.

Thank you, everyone, for all your love and caring.

Pat, and Sydney, Poppy, Elmer, Bob, and Sparkler

Oh, that's so sad, Pat. I know you loved little Christofur so, so much and to lose him this quickly is beyond comprehension despite the troubles he had. It must have been a very difficult decision for you, but you did everything you could for him while he was with you, you gave him a chance he might never have had, and he knew you loved him. I'm sure he went to the Bridge knowing you were with him right up until he had to leave. He was such a beautiful little orangey and it's through tears that I write this. There has been so much sadness on the board lately. I'm so sorry you had to say goodbye to Christofur, but he is no longer sick and he will be waiting for you at the Bridge.

Play gently, Christofur, knowing how much you are loved and how much you are missed.

Pat, I'm so sorry to hear this sad news.

You did everything you could for sweet Christofur but his little body just gave out.

At least he knew he was very much loved before he passed on. Now he's at peace and will be able to run and play up at the Bridge. RIP sweet Christofur.

Please take care. (((HUGS)))

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Play hard at the Bridge, Christofur.

Rest in peace, Christofur, remember the love, and forget the pain.
Now you are whole and healthy, running and playing like you could not don here on earth.
Send a ray of brightest sunshine to Phesina, let her know you felt her love and care.

I'm so sorry. This little angel touched my heart. I think he knew how much he was loved.

**Barbara** · 10-31-2010, 04:45 AM

I'm so sorry. What a brave little boy he was. And I am sure he was very happy that he got to meet you.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It's hard to find words when one of these little furbabies leave us. Now Christofur is free of pain and knows you did everything to help him. God bless.

**chocolatepuppy** · 10-31-2010, 07:37 AM

I'm very sorry about Christofur.

I went back to search in Cat Health to see what happened and couldn't fight back the tears.

You did the best you could for him, he was loved. {hugs}

GOd bless you both for all you did for that little orangeman- he KNEW, beyond doubt, as I go through the threads, that for the last months of his short life he was TRULY LOVED and cared for..... he knew and loved you back as best he could. He'll be at the Bridge waiting, whole and healthy and happy and free of troubles.
Christofur had a WONDERFUL few months there- even with all his troubles- no one can ask for more than that. THoughts and prayers to you all.

Farewell sweet Christofur. Your meowmie did everything she could for you and will miss you very much. You were just such a cutie pie. You touched many hearts little man. Be well at the Bridge sweetie.

**Freedom** · 10-31-2010, 07:55 AM

Pat, you did SO much for the little boy. He knew love, he purred with you, and that is so important. You did the right thing by him, all the way.

RIP little Christofur, you were one very special wee boy.

**Medusa** · 10-31-2010, 08:47 AM

Pat, I can only imagine how difficult this has been for you. We barely got to know Christofur and then he was gone. He sure did touch a lot of hearts in that short span of time, though. Comfort yourself w/the knowledge that he knows no pain, no suffering, only peace. I hope that you find some as well and quickly. RIP, sweet Christofur.
