Big Head crossed the Rainbow Bridge yesterday afternoon. Big Head was one of 7 feral cats I was lucky enough to trap and fix in 2013/2014. He went missing in 2016; I think there is another food source nearby as MomCat and Stripey also went missing around the same time. Lo and behold, in 2017, I go out on patio to feed Terrorist (shredded patio screen door when he was little) and Black Kitty, the only 2 who stayed around, and Big Head is sitting on the railing. What a surprise. He meowed over and over at me. Over the last few months Big Head lost quite a bit of weight. Recently, his eye became infected as well and despite having an appetite he was a mere shell of his former self and obviously weak. I was able to trap him and take him to vet but the prognosis was bleak so I made the hard decision to let him go. I am glad I was able to provide him with two meals a day and a patio to call home. I'm just sad I coudln't do more to save him. Sorry Big Head you spent your last day in a large dog kennel until I took you to vet but I had to make sure I could find you when I came home at lunch time. I hope you knew I was with you in the vets office till the end and heard me say I love you. Remember what I told you: wait for me over the Rainbow Bridge and say hi to all my four footed family that are up there waiting for me too.
