Mikey Is Very Ill

[lizbud]

I miss Mikey very much, but I am so relieved that he doesn't hurt anymore. I would give anything I owned
to have him back if he could be painfree. The last few days he would come to my bedroom during the night and
make the most heartbreaking crying sounds and I would get up to comfort him & encourage him to eat or drink,
sometimes he would lap the water, but not eat. The only thing that comforted him was stroking his head and neck
or under his chin. Even now I catch myself listening for his mewing & twice I've been sure I heard it.

Mikey was the runt of Momma Kitty's last litter. Redbud was the biggest & Mikey was the smallest. His passing now
marks the end of any link to Momma Kitty & that makes me incredibly sad.

Edited to add picture link.
