I Just Put My Baby to Sleep

[Queen of Poop]

So very, very sorry for your loss. It is so very hard to let go. You did what was best and what had to be done. It seems to me though that having this happen in the middle of the night is much worse than daytime. You seem to be more vulnerable. I had to put my dear ferret Miko to sleep at 3:30 am on January 20, 2006. It was much worse for me than any of the others. In time your heart will heal and you will feel better. Hugs for you.

I am so sorry to hear this news. How old was Maxie? Had there been any signs of illness? That is what makes this so hard, that it all happened so quickly and so suddenly. Mxie is feeling fine and happy and playing at the Bridge now!

This is so terriable! I am stunned... I am so very sorry for you! (((((HUGS))))) May Moxie rest in peace, knowing how much you loved him.

I'm so sorry to hear the sad news about Maxie. Because of you, your baby knew a life of love and caring. The right decisions are often the hardest but you did the right thing. Keep Maxie in your heart, he knows your decision was one of love. Sending you many [[[[HUGS]]]], we're all here for you!
Play hard at the RB, little one.

Thank you all for your support. I took the day off of work. I just can't stop crying. I keep looking for him and waiting for him to jump into my lap. I feel like I lost a huge part of myself.

In answer to your question Freedom, here is a link that I created 7/2005. That was when he was diagnosed with this. I wish I took it more seriously, but I didn't. And I'll never forgive myself for that. He wasn't with me long, but in the years he was, he was a joy, a love & the best friend I ever had.

My heart is breaking for you elizabethann. OMG! I don't know what to say. How terrible for all of you. Please give Cosmo and Fenway some extra kisses to help you feel better. I know they'll do the best they can to comfort Mom. {{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}

Rest in Peace Maxie. Play hard at the bridge sweetheart.

I am so sorry to hear about this. I am at work and I am crying with you today.
Please know Maxie loves you and is whole again. He is at the Bridge playing with all the other kitties and having a blast.
Give Cosmo and Fenway hugs for me.

Moxie has gotten his wings on Hawaii Island and is now an offical member of The Pet Angel Army.
Hes sad knowing that you are going to miss him, but he wants you to know thats hes healthy now and that you did what hhad to be done and he knows that you did that out of love.
He says to listen for him that he will visit and from where ever he is in the world he will send signals thats hes all right.
and that you will be together in a better place with places to see and enjoy each others company once more.
One Fine Day.

I am so very sorry to read about your best friend, Maxie. Please do not beat yourself up about his cardiac condition!! He sounded like he had been fine, without any symptoms. But he threw a clot, and when you found him, he was in pain. You did all you could to help Maxie, but it was out of love that you let him go, even though it was devastating to you. Maxie will never forget all the love you gave him. he will always be with you!! Sleep softly, dear Maxie...
and ((((((((hugs)))))))) to Mom...

I am so sorry for the loss of your little one.

I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved Maxie but you really made the right decision. Time will ease the pain, but those words don't help right now. You will be in lots of the Pet Talk folks prayers and hopefully you can find some comfort in that. God Bless and many prayers and hugs your way.

[DrKym]

We are all so sorry to hear this, please accept our condolences, and we will pray that your grief will be brief, and that soon , the happy memories will comfort you.

My heart goes out to you in this sudden loss. Having experienced this I know that this is a pain like no other.

Time will heal this hurt and it can be replaced with all of the wonderful memories you have of your time together.

He isn't gone - he is just waiting for the time when you can be reunited again.
But for now try to console yourself with the fact that you did the very best thing for him - he is not in any pain and he continues to love you more than anything.

[Ginger's Mom]

I am so sorry to see this. Yes, I am crying at my desk at work. I can feel your pain through the computer screen. Just know that you did indeed do the best and most loving thing you could for that special Maxie man, and you will always treasure the love that he added to your life. {{{HUGS}}}
