Sasha Begins Chemotherapy On Monday!

[kittycats_delight]

Susan, You and Murray are two of the most devoted and best people Sasha could have ever chosen to be her purrents. She was a genius. She knew just what she had to do to wrap you around her velvet paw. She could not have had a better and more loving family and she knew she was blessed. She blessed your lives as well. How could she not? All you have to do is look at her and know how special she was and is. You gave her a wonderful life. Sasha will now look over you from Rainbow Bridge and be your kitty angel. One sweet day you will once again hold that gorgeous calico queen.

R.I.P Sasha the Calico Queen. You have fun at RB and one sweet day you will be with your Katma and Pawpaw again. Play and enjoy your time with Bobby the dog, Tiggy, Paddy-Paws and Princess.

You are loved and missed Sasha.
You have left a mark on many people here at PT and we promise we will never forget you angel.

Susan, I can't tell you how much my heart is breaking for you right now. Sasha graces my Wall of Fame and it hurts me now that I must put a "rainbow" sticker on her picture.

Major leaky eye syndrome going on right now. I'm going to send you an email.

I'm so sorry for your loss. You did everything to help her and were amazing parents to her.

I hope she's frolicing and having fun at the R.B. now.

Hugs,
Kelly

Our thoughts were with you during these days of absence. I am so sorry Sasha went to Rainbow Bridge but I know she will be happy and healthy there, waiting for you.

Sasha was so loved by you and you by her. What else can we ask from this life? You all have been blessed and she is free. My heart aches for you as I'm sure yours does for her. Rest assured that a special candle will be lit for Sasha and her loved ones today.

Blessings,
Mary

I'm so sorry about Sasha. You were wonderful to her and gave her a great life with lots of loving.

Susan and Murray, my heart breaks for you. I know how much she meant to you and came to mean to all of us here. She was a beautiful girl and I can only hope and pray that she is at peace now and playing, once again Healthy at the Rainbow Bridge. I hope she had an easy crossing and that her last days with you were filled with beautiful memories. I wish I had the words to ease your pain, but there are none. Just remember all the wonderful times you shared and know that she is watching over you and that she is free from pain.

RIP Sweet Sasha, you will be terribly missed by all!

Dear Susan and Murray, I just read about Sasha, and there are no words that can express my sorrow for your great loss. Sasha fought a good fight and you were there for her at every moment. You know she knew that and loved you even more for that. I enjoyed " her " messages and seeing her photos. After this post, I will go to www.rainbowsbridge.com and "light " a candle for her in the Candle Vigil Room(look under New Beginnings). Sending you lots of love and support. With much love,
Sandra and the Campbell Clan of Cats, Ralph Syracuse, Norton, Molly Meu, Raven, Tina Peepers, Nicholas, Riley, and Hayley

I've been following Sasha's journey..every time I come to this thread I cry, it brings back such memories. Now I come back to find I must offer my condolences and godspeed to Sasha for her trip to the Rainbow Bridge.

I can feel right through the text of all the messages and feel the deep love and devotion both to and from Sasha between you. This bond can never be broken, cherish your memories as they can never be taken from you.

Godspeed Sasha..and my heartfelt sympathies to Mommy and Daddy.

It's so hard to type through all the tears.

Sasha, my sweet little friend, you sure left your dainty paw prints all over my heart. I'll be asking God every morning during prayers from now on, to be sure to give you lots of hugs, cuddles and kisses. You'll meet lots of my babies there, I'm sure. Don't believe everything they tell you about me, ok?

I'll be sure to give you a hug, cuddle and kiss myself someday, if you will allow. For now, you fought so long and hard, you deserve some rest and peace. Just know you will be missed forever here.

Susan and Murry, I know your hearts are breaking at the departure of your sweet girl. You know she was special to have touched so many of us. Please take a little comfort in knowing she is in no pain now.

(((HUGS)))

Our darling Sasha and her siblings at R.B. are, we're sure, touched by the love and caring given to her from all of the pets and people in this Forum.

Murray and I are amazed at the kindness of people who are linked to each other through their darling and very precious pets. It comforts us so much.

September 2nd is our 15th wedding anniversary. This past week would have been a vacation break but with our darling so ill, who could go on vacation? However, last night we had planned a nice dinner out -- and Sasha's veterinarian, Dr. Azuelos told us that Sasha would want us to keep our plan. We took her advice and did that. And on September 2nd we will raise a glass and toast our darlings: Sasha, Princess, Tiggy, Bobby the Dog, Paddy-Paws and Chuckie the Dog -- our sweet pets at R.B. who will toast us back with catnip and doggie bones.

I will post some of the last photos of Sasha -- one in sepia which is so lovely -- as well as others of her outside with us and her Auntie Myra.

We like these quotes as they express the very same sentiments we wish these special pets:

NoahsMommy said: God, please keep sweet Halo comfortable and take her pain and illness away. Please also help heal Sunny and Thumper soon. Please also be with Onyx and help her eyes heal. And...be with Lucas and help the whitecoats figure out what's bothering his tummy. Thank you!!

Kittycats_delight said: Lots of extra love and healing thoughts for our Kelly's speedy recovery to a new pain-free life. We love you sweetie !!!

Many healing vibes and good thoughts for Onyx, Sasha, Lucas, Flutter, Angel Eyes, Puddy, Toby, Halo, Thumper and all our other PT Furbabies that are not feeling well. We love you little ones. Get Well !!!!

How sad but how sweet. Sasha reminds me of my calico, Puddy. But there's no one like our own, that's for sure.

Happy Anniversary and blessings,
Mary

[sandragonfly]

oh no.. not our sasha! I'm so devastated hearing this just now. I'm speechless...but I know you have given your dear preciousangel, sasha extra & extra love in those few past hard weeks. remember, she wouldn't lived this longer if it weren't for her emorously loving katma & pawpaw.
