Haven't been much in Cat Health lately so I'm shocked to read that Mishi's end was so near - and that he crossed to Bridge now. You cared for him wonderfully and he left with the knowledge that he's very much loved. He's at peace now after a long time of illness and suffering.

I just read the entire thread and the ups and downs you went through remined me a lot of my final weeks with my RB Katz. But when the day came, I just knew it. She may have already greeted Mishi at the Bridge now, and maybe they are looking down at us now and sending us some gentle purrs.



Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow;
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain;
I am the gentle Autumn’s rain.

When you awaken in the morning’s hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft star that shines at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there;
I did not die.


R.I.P. Mishi
