Sweet Georgia Peach was my second state, after Texas. She was brought into my home to provide Tex with a little buddy, and boy, were they ever that! Tex welcomed Georgia without reservation, and only Georgia. She could sleep with him, eat from the same plate as him, and he provided her protection from the bully cat- Monte. Things were different for Georgia after Tex left us (May 2005), and I ended up giving Monte the boot to Lillycat's house in July 06.

Georgia seemed to suffer from IBS, and she was always such a timid, shy girl. She loved her people, but, only on her terms. She was always at the ready to pester you with the walking back and forth, but, never settling love fest. Holding Georgia was a silly task....she would get so feisty, so vocal, but, never would she bite. She just wanted down! She was a sink cat, a sleep on the bed cat, an eater of cantelope, and, of course, peaches. She would come up to the bed when Jonah and I would settle in for the night, or wake up in the am, and she would let Jonah pet her and pet her and pet her. I have some really great mental pictures of Georgia sleeping on Jonah while I nursed him to sleep.

Sadly, Georgia just didn't seem to continue to respond to treatment for IBS, and within the last week, she had really taken a turn for the worse. I had been home on snow break the last two days, and it was so evident that she wasn't eating at all. I made all her favorite dishes yesterday, including milk, and she touched none of them. This am, well, let me just say it was horrid. I took her to the vet at 8, and he said her heart was barely beating. After witnessing what I did this am, I wanted to ease any pain she might be in. Georgie made the trip this morning, and I hope she quickly finds Binx, Tenny and her heartmate, Texas. 4 pets in 3 years. I can only hope this won't continue. I don't know how much more I can take.

RIP, Sweet Georgie.

Love,
Your Mommy

I'm so sorry to hear about sweet, beautiful Georgia. I didn't realise that she was being treated for IBS. Poor baby. :(

That is so lovely that she would cuddle up to you and Jonah. I hope one of the other states takes over that function soon for you.

Rest in peace, Georgia.

I am shocked and saddened by the news of Georgia's passing. :(

It sounds like you could do everything you could for her, and I know she thanks you for easing her suffering.

I'm also sure that Texas was the first one to greet her at the RB, and Tenny and Binx were happy to see her also.

RIP sweet Georgia, you will be missed. :(

I am so sorry to hear of Georgia's passing. Sounds like you did everything you could for her... and she knew that! She was loved, and knew the companionship of humans and kitties.

Godspeed to the RB little one, play hard with all of our other PT babies! You will be welcomed with open arms and shown around!

RIP sweet Georgia, RIP.

I'm so sorry. The shy ones have a way of stealing our hearts.

I'm sure that Tex has resumed his role of Georgia's protector at the RB. Rest gently, Georgia girl.

{{{{{{JOH}}}}} I am truly sorry for your loss. And I do understand how much harder it is when multiple pets die in a short time span. Just keep the memories close and they will comfort you. And know that Georgia NEEDED her Tex, more than anything on Earth. more {{{{{HUGS}}}}}

Oh Johanna, I'm so sorry to hear about Georgia. It's so hard to lose our companions, and just seems to happen too soon for all of us. Georgia is now free from any pain, and will be waiting for you at the bridge when the time comes... until then, know that she is happy and healthy and with others that love her.

I am so sorry you lost your baby Georgia. They are not with us nowhere near long enough and seems like they are with us for such a brief time. It is just so heartbreaking when we loose one and it hurts so bad and we miss them so
May she rest in peace and play hard at the Bridge. ((((((HIGS))))) to you.

Johanna, I'm just seeing this now and I am in total shock. I am so very sorry.
It is so very hard when we loose our special babies. Each and every one of our babies hold a very special place in our hearts.

Where in our hearts do we find the ability to love them beyond words, to love them and they love us so unconditionally...where in our hearts do we find the ability to grieve for their loss yet smile because nothing or anything can take away our memories of them.

RIP Sweet Georgia :(

I'm so sorry to hear of Georgia's passing. It's tough enough to lose one but when we lose them in succession, it can get to us. Unfortunately, they're only ours for a little while, certainly not long enough. A candle burns for you and your Georgia peach.

Blessings,
Mary

Thank you all for your kind words. It was a strange night last night. Very strange. I hold comfort in the fact she isn't suffering, and pity that this all unfolded in the evening/overnight, and that she has to suffer at all.

Again, thank you. I know I do not grieve alone.

Johanna, I'm so sorry I didn't see this thread until now.
I didn't even know Georgia was so sick. :(
I'm really sorry that she has gone to the RB to join her brothers Tex, Tenny and Binx.
Sending lots of hugs your way and Samantha sends you some comforting headbumpies.

Oh, Johanna!

I'm so sorry to just be reading this! How terribly ironic that we both lost our babies within a week of each other. Bonnie left us Feb. 8.

My deepest sympathies to you all.

Play hard at the bridge sweet Georgia!

Joh- I can only hope you will forgive me for not seeing this almost a year ago. I didn't realize Sweet Georgia Peach had crossed to the bridge until reading your post in Tenny's thread.
I hope you are healing just a little bit from your losses.
MUCH love to you.

Forgive me for missing your anniversary day. You are never far from my heart. Jones still tells me he misses you, Tenny and Tex. You would have enjoyed today, Georgie. It was balmy and the windows were open. I can see you in my mind's eye, lying on the cat bed in my room.

I miss you, Georgie.
Love,
Johanna
