[Craftlady]

So sorry for your loss. May it be a comfort to know that Cosmo wont be suffering anymore and will be able to play peacefully at the Rainbow Bridge.

I am so very sorry that you have to say good bye to Cosmo today. Rest assured, Maxie will be there to greet him with open paws. My heart is breaking for you. Hugs.

I´m sorry you are dealing with a recent loss and another on the way....... he won´t be alone at the RB, he will be awaited by many PT pets, but he´ll always be watching over his lil brother Fenway.......

a kitty less home may be too hard to take, but time will let you know when it´s time to fill again....... you gave them both the best place they could be in.... YOUR HEART........

may you have an easy passing Cosmo, you will be missed and loved furrever

[kittycats_delight]

What a terrible loss. I am so sorry for all you have and are going though. My thoughts and prayers are with you. There will be a grand gathering for sure at RB before this day is through if all comes to pass. We will be losing a PT kitty and 3 doggies. What a terrible day. I hope God doesn't need them all.

Rest assured Maxie will be there waiting for Cosmo. And I can guarentee Cosmo knows how much you love him. You are giving him the greatest love of all by letting him go to be painfree and happy again at RB. He will be with Maxie. I guess Maxie really needed him up there. One day you will meet again and they will both come running and meowing a happy greeting to be reunited with their meowmie. Until then when the time is right give your love to another who is so deserving. Maxie and Cosmo will send the right one or 2 your way when the time is right.

((((HUGS))))
May Cosmo have a easy, and peaceful passing.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Each time I read of a kidney cat having to be pts, it makes me look at my Mishi and know I'll have to do the same with him someday. I feel your pain. Play hard at the bridge, sweet Cosmo.

Thanks for everybody's sympathy.

Cosmo is gone. I was able to spend quite a bit of time with him before he was euthanized. Before I went to the vets, I stopped at the drug store & picked up an eyebrow brush. He loves eyebrow brushes and I have a special one at home for him. I got to brush his face, his nose, his ears and his gums. He was purring. In fact, I had second thoughts about putting him to sleep.

But then I picked him up and held him and he just looked around. I put him down and he had a loud howl. He was in pain. I kept kissing him & saying I loved him & said "say hello to Maxie for me". The vet gave him a sedative so he passed out. I stayed with him like that for about 20 minutes. And then the vet gave him the shot to put him to sleep. He died very peacefully. They shaved a huge piece of hair for me.

My apartment is very quiet tonight. I still have the litter box, food, toys & cat furniture out. I will be giving my sister all of the cat food & cat treats for her kitties. I'll throw the litter box out. And I'll bring the toys to the local shelter (except for a few favorites). The furniture will just stay there for now.

I was just talking to my sister and she mentioned night lights. I had 2 nightlights for Cosmo. I guess I can unplug those. I have a sign on my door that says "please don't let the cat out". I guess I can take that off. And I'll have to change the Fire/Police stickers to say "dog = 1" and "cat = 0". I can now close every door in my apartment (Cosmo hated closed doors). I can now leave out my shoes, purses & tote bags (Cosmo ate leather and ruined all of these if I forgot to put them away). I'll be able to sleep tonight (Cosmo woke me up every 2 hours to be fed). I can sleep without someone punching my nose to wake up. But I would give all of that up to have Cosmo back again.

I just can't believe I've lost 2 of my lovebugs in 2 months. I'm so nervous because I believe bad things happen in 3. I'm so afraid something is going to happen to Fenway. But I have to believe that Cosmo & Maxie are watching over him.

Goodbye Cosmo. I will miss you very much.

We'll hold good, protective thoughts for Fenway and lots of loving, comforting thoughts for you. I'm so sorry about Cosmo. But your decision was the right one. Bless you for being there w/him.

[Ginger's Mom]

I never get over to the cat side so I am just seeing all of this now. I am so sorry elizabethann on your loss. I know that you were still mourning Maxie, and now to lose Cosmo so close in time. You did the right thing, and I am glad that you got to have a special afternoon with him this weekend and again this afternoon while you were brushing him. Fenway will be fine, just cuddle and comfort each other for now, and he will help you become stronger again. {{{Hugs}}}

[Freedom]

Oh Elizabethann, hugs for you. Cosmo is feeling so fine now, at the bridge, and Maxie met him, never fear. Cosmo lived 12 full years with you, years of life and love and care and joy. Hold on to that. And in the end, you were there when he needed you most.

God bless. RIP Cosmo.

[momtomany]

I am so sorry and there are not words for this time in your life. I will keep you in my prayers.

[Daisy and Delilah]

I am so sorry I didn't see this until just now. You must be devastated after just losing Maxie, Beth. So much sadness on this board lately. Please give Fenway some kisses from me to help ease your pain.

Rest In Peace Cosmo You and Maxie play hard at the bridge together

I just saw this today, and I'm sitting here at work crying for your loss. My precious kitty is 12, and I just can't wrap my mind around the fact that someday (hopefully not too soon, please God) I will be in the same position as you are now. I am SO sorry for your loss. You will know when it's time to be a cat mom again. In the meantime try to be strong. I know that's easy for someone else to say to you, but I mean it. Take care of yourself.
