    The vet's offce - Mom just phoned...

    As some of you know, one of Mom's dear cats had to be PTS on the 21st when cancer was discovered after surgery.

    We talked about an hour ago, and she just phoned me back.

    She got a beautiful bouquet from the vet's office - an orchid, little roses, more - and a card everyone had signed.

    And on the card - they had put Pyka's footprint.

    She was bawling, I was bawling...omg.

    The vet there had worked with mom and Pyka for two years as the sinus problem got worse and worse.

    I'd like to think this bouquet was a little more special than the rest, though that would be selfish...Mom couldn't even tell me all the flowers that were in it cause tears were streaming down her face.

    How painfully beautiful - and incredible...

    Just wanted to share.

    Candace,

    What a wonderful group of people at the vet's office. I feel so terribly bad about Pyka and your Mom. Please tell your Mom I'm thinking of her and she will be in my thoughts and prayers.

    That is a very nice gesture, and yes I would say it was special. We never sent out flowers to anyone, maybe a card. She must have been one very loved kitty. Please tell your mother she has my sympathy


    Thank you so much Michelle!

    Please be responsible, spay and neuter your pets!


    I've been BOO'd!!! Thanks Lori!

    That goes above and beyond the call of duty as a vet. That is just the sweetiest thing I ever heard of a vet doing!
