UPDATE again - Mishi's Across the Bridge :(

[cassiesmom]

RH, how's the boybee today?

[RedHedd]

He's had a few good days. Last Thursday or Wednesday he was SO low, I gave him some of his pain meds that I had left over from one of his previous episodes. This stuff is STRONG! My poor boybee had saucer-sized eye balls and was SO stoned, but I think it was exactly what he needed - a night free of any pain. I don't know if he had been in pain, but he had looked miserable.

The next day I had a much happier kitty and he has remained pretty chipper, eating on his own, although he still won't touch the X/D. I'm just happy he's eating! He knocked over my glass several times trying to get a drink - his head is way too big to fit into a glass, but he keeps trying the silly goon!

He seems a bit down today, but that's probably because it's been warm. In his current state, he doesn't like heat too much.

Mishi, the Clan Cats are on your side about the heat!!! You take care and keep cool! Hugs to you and your Mom...

[cassiesmom]

Hello, Mishi sweet ... how are you? How are your Mom and Mitzi? hughughughug

[RedHedd]

I'm afraid the end is very near. Mishi is nothing but fur and bones and barely moves from the bed except to eat a little. I have a glass of water for him on the nightstand which he loves. Now he doesn't have to try and squeeze his head into MY glass and make a mess.

I had to move his litterbox into the bedroom because he had started peeing on the bed; now he's using the litterbox again, but it's obvious that I'll have to take him for his last sleep probably sometime this week. He's so frail and I can tell he's not enjoying life.

He and I have "talked" and he knows it's okay for him to leave. I'm sad to lose my golden buddy and feel privileged to have had the honor of being his guardian for the past four years.

Georgia, I'm so sorry to hear this. I know how much he means to you and I'm sure that he loves you as much as you love him. I hope that you can make him as comfortable as possible in the time that you have left together. Please give him some kisses and scritches for me. If you need to talk I'm only a phone call or pm a way. Please take care. (((HUGS)))

[Medusa]

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear this. Gentle hugs to you both and know that we're here for you.

[jenluckenbach]

Sad news.

[momtomany]

There are no words. My prayers are with you and Mishi both.

It is the ultimate act of love to give the final release. It was the hardest think I have ever done to let Nakita go, but she was in the same state. I couldn't watch her suffer for my needs to keep her with me.

My heart goes out to you, since I had to travel a similar road in January. You'll be in my thoughts. Please give Mishi a gentle hug from me, ok?

Major LES going on here right now. Georgia, I wish I could be with you at a time like this...then again, you're probably like me....wanting to spend his final moments alone with you. I don't know what else to say except {{{hugs}}} to you and please plant a kiss on Mishi's forehead for me. Tell him that I've spoken with Speckles and she will be right there to greet him when he crosses that bridge.

[cassiesmom]

Yay, Mishi! Keep ticking, sweet boy!

[krazyaboutkatz]

Georgia,I'm glad to hear that he's bounced back again. I hope that you'll be able to keep him as comfortable as possible. You both remain in my thoughts and prayers.

[ramanth]

Oh Georgia... I can't believe I'm finding this thread now.

Not Mishi...not that sweet fluffy orange boy.

I am so sorry he's not well.

*HUGS*
