Debbie, Terry and Peanut, I am so sorry. There is nothing else I can say that everyone else has not already said. Please know that you, Terry and Peanut are in my thoughts, prayers and my heart. --- Meg

Tubby may you rest in peace and may you play ever so hard over the Rainbow Bridge. Until you are reunited with your family, may you find the love from our family (Tony, Cleo and Tobias).

Dear Debbie,

I, like so many other PTers, am typing this through tears. I just signed on to take a quick scan of Cat General when I saw your thread. I couldn't believe it as Tubby had improved so much in the last weeks. Poor baby - his little body just wore out. He was loved so thoroughly by you, Terry, Peanut and legions more. You gave him the absolute best life any kitty could ever have and then you gave him the kindest, most loving send off. That was an extremely unselfish decision on your part as our first inclinations as pet parents would probably have been to run out the door of the vet's office, carrying our babies home with us for just a little more time with them. Instead, you did what was best for dear Tubby, saving him from any more pain, and taking the pain upon yourself as you drove home with empty arms. (((HUGS))) to you, Terry and a kiss to Miss Peanut. My heart breaks for your loss.

Take care --- Bobbi

Donna, you are the first one to refer to Tubby as RB Tubby. I don't know if I'm ready for that yet. <weak smile>

I was in the room with Tubby for awhile after he was "gone" and I finally composed myself and came out. The vet came and got Tubby and it was only left to pay the bill. As the girl handed me my receipt, she gave me a little card with a poem about RB on it. I thought I had it together until then. I started crying again and told her I knew about RB and I had told Tubby I would see him there. She was having a tough time with it all too, and when I told her that she broke down too.

And just so no one wonders, yes Terry was there too, although he couldn't be in the room. He was a total basket case - almost worse than me, so he waited in the lobby, which was fine with me. I wanted the time alone with Tubby. We were alone together when I first got him, and now we were alone together when he left.

Debbie, I am so sorry, I just don't know what to say. I thought he was getting better. This is just such a shock. All I know to do is say I am sorry and to just keep crying and to pray for you and Terry.

Rest in peace sweet boy, Tubby, May you play hard and be well at the bridge.

I am crying now. I opened this thread and as soon as I did my whole body got chills. I am so sorry you had to make this decision Debbie. However I believe you did the right thing for your beautiful boy.

RIP Tubby. You were a very special cat and we all are going to miss you very much!

I know Tubby's health had been a concern, but it's still a shock to read this. Rest in peace, Tubby.

I really am about to cry. I am really glad that you've given me the opportunity to get to know Tubby through PT.

*Hugs* for you. RIP Tubby

Oh Debbie, I'm so very sorry to hear this.
He was doing so much better, so this really comes as a shock.
I got your Christmas card yesterday and mailed a card in return today thinking that you'd be able to enjoy one more Christmas with him. Samantha even sent a special little note for Tubby.
It really hurts to read this thread, Samantha and I feel your pain.
Hugs to you Debbie, and more hugs for Terry and Peanut too.
Good-bye sweet Tubby.

I am so sorry for Tubby's passage but feel comfort in the fact that you both had a wonderful bond in this life and will meet again.

Quoted by T & P's mom
We were alone together when I first got him, and now we were alone together when he left.

This is just so precious.

All of PT share your grief and are crying right along with you Debbie and Terry.
