    I've moved this to Pet Memorial. Jennie, you and everyone else did everything we possibly could for Ally. Now she is at peace.

    I'm saddened to read that Ally is gone... I feared it might end this way, and yet I'm kind of relieved that Ally is at peace now. She was a tortured soul that probably would never have found any rest, not even as an only cat.

    I'm sure, Amanda, the vet tech, did what she could and gave her all her love, and whatever it was that made Ally act full of hate towards others came now to rest, and gave her peace.

    Jenn, please do not think you failed her, you did more for her than most people would have done. I'm sure she knew what you did for her, even if she couldn't show it. She may come back to you one day, and be the kitty she couldn't have been in her last life.

    R.I.P., Ally, rest finally in peace.
    You were loved by more people than you will ever know!

    Thank you, Jenn, for giving your best to her and giving her every possible chance. Thanks also to the vet tech who took in a dangerous cat.

    I'm sure she's at peace now.

    RIP Ally.

    When a friend lost his mother, another friend said to him "I'm sad for you and I'm happy for you". He explained that he, of course, he was sad that he no longer had his beloved mother with him but that he was also happy because his mother was at peace and so was my friend, who had taken care of her for many years. It was a rough road for both of them. And it was a rough road for you and Ally, Jenn. Not only did you not let Ally down, you gave her a chance that perhaps someone less patient and compassionate might not have. Try to see the situation as you and the vet tech being the persons who gave Ally a better life, both here and elsewhere. She couldn't continue the way she was; something had to change for her and, although it isn't the change you and all of us were hoping for, it was the change that she needed in order to find peace. Ease your mind, Jenn. Ally loves you and so do we.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Never before has Rest In Peace meant quite as much as it does now.

    Ally has not been at Peace for quite some time.

    While it is true that she started out life as a happy kitten, even before she came to the USA, she was a tormented soul. For reasons unkown, she would inflict pain to her humans (Julie, Jennie, Amanda).

    Julie tolerated Ally because she loved her. But I KNOW Julie feared for her baby, Calista. What if Ally bit HER?
    Jennie tolerated her because of a very strong sense of obligation. Jennie went above and beyond the call of duty to keep Ally safe. But it became apparent that Ally would never rejoin her family.
    Amanda, even though she had no reason to take this job, tolerated Ally for at least a month. God bless her for trying. It could not have been an easy decision to put Ally to sleep. But maybe she helped all of us involved with a very hard decision.

    I was saddened to hear she was gone, but I am going to be 100% honest.....I was also relieved. And everyone involved should be proud that the attempt was made to keep Ally happy. But as life often reminds us, we don't always win.

    Amen.

    Jenn, please don't doubt yourself. You did so much and had so much support, prayers and input (Nancy Efrusy, vets, etc.) Ally was a unique one of a kind cat; as are all our kitties. We find it difficult to accept that we just couldn't reach her to help her the way WE wanted to. God had something else planned. Bless you for all the work you did with her.

    Jenn, you did everything you could - and more, to try to save Ally, and it's been a long and sad journey for her and for everyone involved. I'm so sorry.

    Rest in peace, Ally!

    You did far and above for precious Ally and did not fail her by any means. All of us hoped that Ally would find peace and peace she has found.

    May Alley finally rest in peace.
    Jenn, you did everything humanly possible to make her life better. Bless the vet tech for trying to help despite all the odds.

    I went to post #94 where there were links to Ally - including a before and after of her as a kitten and then grown on the computer monitor.

    All the pics are GONE. In every link.

    I have no idea what happened...I just wanted to post a few more....

    I wonder how long they've been gone?? Maybe it was easier for Julie to move on without the pics of Connor and Ally there to remind her?


    Edit: Abbymom said it could be the pics were on Imagestation, and since it closed they are now gone

    Jenn, you went above and beyond what most would do. Don't beat yourself up. *HUGS*

    RIP Ally.
