Please say a prayer for one of my colony babies, Mike, who went to the Rainbow Bridge a little while ago. Mike was one of my feral babies that would sometimes allow me to pet him. It has been slow going for me to fix this colony and as males go, he was a tom and wouldn't always be around. He showed up one day, looking as if he had a cold, but didn't. He was very hard for me to catch and I finally got him today and took him to the emergency vet. They felt he either had a nasal cancer or a fungal infection and it was eating away his bone causing him pain. The decision was made to allow him to go the Rainbow Bridge and I was with him. I am thankful that I was and he didn't crawl off to die or a wild critter get him. I felt when I caught him it was something more than a cold or abscess which I would have paid for treatment. I know all can't be saved, and he was loved, but it so frustrating at times. Rest in peace my baby Mike. Play happily with all the kitties at Rainbow Bridge. Know that I loved you and will miss my you.
