I wonder if she'd like the Mirtazapine dissolved in chicken broth! (I wonder if chicken broth would interact badly with the Mirtazapine...)

Tonight Poppy ate a little from a can of something called "Weruva Cats in the Kitchen La Isla Bonita Mackerel and Shrimp Recipe Au Jus" ...after turning up her nose at several other offerings.

Poppy didn't eat anything yesterday. She stayed hidden a lot of the day. Came out in the evening. I gave her her steroid squirt in case it might make her more comfortable. Shortly afterwards she threw up some orangey liquid. I thought she was spitting up the med, but it was not the same color. This morning I found she'd spit up some more of that liquid.
We are going to the vet's pretty soon. I think it's time.
I love you, Poppy. Thank you so much for being with me, sharing your beautiful self with me.

I'm so very sorry Pat.I know you are doing everything you can to keep her comfortable.
As hard as it is, perhaps it's time to say goodbye and not let her suffer - I think she will let you know.
You and Poppy are in my thoughts - I send love, comfort and big ((((hugs))))

Thank you, Randi and Heidi. Poppy is an Angel now.
The vet said she was badly dehydrated and had been spitting up blood. She was swollen up from that liquid in her abdomen, and her breathing was getting a bit off.
I feel so guilty, I should have brought her home for another day? But I couldn't see her going through another day of probably spitting up more blood and not eating.
I love you so much, Poppy.

Pat, please don't feel quilty that you let her go. I think she hung on only for your sake. She is now at peace and you were there for her until the end. I know how badly you will miss her, but this was best for Poppy. You are the best mom she could have wished for!
Dear sweet Poppy, have a good rest at the Rainbow Bridge, and then go find your new friends... cats and humans. You are a precious angel now, but your mom will keep you in her heart forever.
You're in my thoughts, dear Pat... sending lots of love and (((hugs)))

I picked up Poppy's ashes this morning. With it, there is a small vial with a little of her fur in it.
