    Hamish *sad news*

    Hamish had another attack tonight. He was doing okay but lost interest in his food this afternoon. I guess his health was more fragile than anyone thought. This attack was worse than the others and after rushing to the vet even Lasix couldn't help his breathing. We decided not let him suffer like this anymore and let him go. I'm so shocked and so sad. I have never had to do this before. I miss him so much. He was such a great loving lap cat. I will miss his crisscross paws and happy face. Thank you everyone for listening and everything. What an awful day.

    I am so, so sorry to hear about darling Hamish.

    It sounds like the vets tried their very very best, and you did your utmost for him.

    So ironic that Haggis was the one who had poor health and is now well and thriving. Take comfort that all your efforts to help Haggis worked.

    I hope you and your husband and Haggis can find comfort with each other.

    And prayers for Haggis at losing his longtime friend and brother.

    Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear that! Honestly, it's when we think that they're on the mend that they sometimes go the other way. Please take comfort in the fact that you gave Hamish the best vet care and so much love and when you had to, you did what was best for him and not you. RIP, dear boy and peace to your humans.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    I lost a dear kitty several years ago to congestive heart failure. I am so sorry that your dear Hamish is no longer with you. The intense sadness is a terrible feeling. Please know that each day will get better, even though you will still miss them every day. Please take comfort in knowing that he is no longer suffering. Give Haggis some extra hugs as well.

    Also, I don't know where you are, but I have some Transfer Factor that was compounded left from Morgan. I'd be willing to send it to you, if you could use it. It may only be about 10 pills worth though. The pharmacy says to keep it refrigerated on the bottle, but I'm not sure if it has to be. I asked and she didn't really give a straight answer. Let me know if you are interested.

    Time helps the sadness subside, but the memories remain forever.

    I'm so sorry. I know you've had quite a time lately, and you've done your very best; it's heartbreaking, but it was time.

    Godspeed to the Bridge, dear Hamish, and Peace to your family. Rest and play well with no more health problems; healthy and free!

    I'm so sorry. You did everything possible for Hamish, but sometimes our kitties just can't recover and all we can do is to let them have peace. My thoughts are with you and Haggis.
