    I read Luba's story and now my darn eyes are leaking! I am happy she had 5 more good years, though. I have lost two babies in this last year. It can really hurt. I wish her family the best and I hope they know what wonderful people they truly are!

    And the vet said one year was usual for kitties in her situation.

    5 years ago was not her time...and I am so glad they all had loving time together. She beat the odds.

    16 is a respectable age...but now her humans are heartbroken. It is obvious how much they loved her by giving her a chance.

    {{{hugs}}} to her people, and wishes that she plays happy and young at the Bridge.

    Sad to hear that she passed. I am glad to hear, however, that they had 5 years with her when the dr's said only 1 maybe, that is great that they had the extra time with her. I'm sure she's happily romping at the RB with my Dusty there to show her around, and maybe she can show my Dusty all about rolling in Oregano.

    RIP Dusty July 2 2007 RIP Sabrina June 16 2011 RIP Jack July 2 2013 RIP Bear July 5 2016 RIP Pooky June 23 2018. RIP Josh July 6 2019 RIP Cami January 6 2022

    I just saw this thread now, and I'm so sorry for Luba's purrents, but I'm glad that Luba had 5 extra good years with them.

    Rest in Peace, Luba!

    I just finished reading this thread from the beginning, since I was not familiar with Luba. What an absolutely wonderful story of courage, determination, and LOVE in the face of adversity.
    RIP dear Luba - what an extraordinary kitty you truly were.
    And peace to Luba's purrents. You did good!

    I was't familiar w/Luba's story either so I read the entire thread. Wow, what a comeback that little Spice Girl made and for a long time, too. She had some wonderful, quality years that she wouldn't have had otherwise if it wasn't for your friend's loving care and your friendship, Slick. Please know that my prayers are w/you and her family. You've all done a wonderful job. RIP, sweet Luba, what a courageous little girl! Now you can live the life that you were truly meant to live.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Despite the 'extra' 5 years spent with Luba it is still so sad how in just one week the whole world has now changed for her loving humans.

    Rest in peace now dear Luba.

    Rest in peace, dearest Luba. You are beloved.

    And now Luba will be with the Pet Angel Army and they always go to where the best spices in the world are so Luba can roll and fly to them in her wings of silver and gold to her hearts content!
    And she was so glad for the care and TLC that gave her 5 extra yeras on Earth, and will make it up to her family with extra love and kisses when they all meet again in Paradise Forever.

    I wasn't familiar with the story, either, but it is definitely a story of courage and love. My sentiments were well expressed in the posts of Medusa and Pomtzu. I just returned from vacation, so I'm a little late. Godspeed Luba and Peace to your family. Visit every once in a while with the smell of Oregano to let them know you're OK.

    I just read ALL the posts!!! First, I am so very sorry about Luba and her family. Such an emotional stress. Our little Molly(also 16), like Luba, had cancer. It seemed to come out of the blue. But, also like Luba, it progresses very rapidly. It is so sad to lose our little friends, but we know they are young, healthy, and without any pain at the Bridge. I will light some candles for Luba and her family. Sleep softly, dear, sweet Luba...
