    I just wanted to repost this picture (and thread) that Carla posted on 3/15/06 of Winston and Booboo. When I saw this pic, I knew how sick Booboo was so I had no idea that Winston would be leading the way to the RB.

    And here's a link to the thread My two sickest cats together


    Drat, it's not letting me repost the pic, so you'll have to go to the thread to see it.

    Boo Boo will be making his trip to Rainbow Bridge today. They are having to much to deal with right now but she knows you all are here for her.

    Oh my.... how very very sad for the family. But Booboo and Wonston will be together once again and they can comfort one another, just as they were in the last picture we saw of them. I have serious LES here. I am so sad for the family. I cannot imagine what they must be going through. Our hearts go out to them and prayers for a speedy trip to the RB Booboo, so that once again you can be with Winston and so many other of our PT kitties that will be there to greet you.

    I want to thank ALL of you for your kind words at this time.We are so sad here.BooBoo was just put down today.His appointment was scheduled but Winston's was sudden.His heart just gave out and he needed to be rushed in.
    I'm not doing to good today and haven't for 2 days at least.Today and yesterday are the worst.I wanted to go with Mike for BooBoo but could not.I would of totally flipped out in the office.We've been bonded for 17 years.He's with his brother now KIKI that died 3 years ago of Cancer of the Jaw.It was just us 3 for 10 years before Mike came along.Then ALL the other cats came after Me and Mike hitched up 7 years ago.
    Winston was me and Mike's true love.We loved that Cat so darn much that we let him get away with ruining most of our furniture because of pee habits from a kitten I guess.That's why they (The first owners that were not nice people)tossed him and his brother out in Louisianna.But his pee habits I truly believe were from being a very sick kitten from birth.He was a sick cat and if he were with me from the start...I'll bet I would of gotten him living longer than he did.As it was he got more life just from us bringing him to a heart specialist and getting meds for it daily.They said he was stable after that for a long time but it caught up with him all at once.
    So he and his brother ended happy in a nice clean home with lots of love and care.
    Benson is doing VERY well.All he does is play and act goofy.He'll live a VERY long life.Everyone here loves Benson.Especially Trudy.They sleep wounded up together all the time.
    I just got off the phone with the vet and after the rush is over...he'll come over in June...check all the cats teeth and schedule cleaning and pulling for the ones that need it.
    I can't believe I asked him if he'd come over.It's much easier though.There are at least 4-5 cats that need dental.I don't want to bring them all in just to check.
    Well...I guess I changed the subject a little so I can go on without crying.
    Thank all of you for your support.Especially Laura and her family.Benson will have many happy years here.Thank you all for sending them both here.Winston and Benson really went to a wonderful cat home.

    Thank You Kim for this wonderful siggy

    It was the pulling together here at PT that save Winston's life. Heart felt "thanks" does not say enough to everyone who helped by supporting and praying in "Lucky Winston's" first hours of need when he was found. He made a miracle happen right here in PT Land like I had never seen. It bought him enough time to learn what really having unconditional love really is and that there are some really good humans out there in the world. That is what Pet Talk gave him, for that, I will be forever grateful. He was truely indeed, a LUCKY Cajun boy that went from rags to riches and got to live out his final days like a king....otherwise, he would have died in a ditch in Louisiana with owners that could have cared less.

    I know it sounds so empty and shallow, but Carla... Just LOOK at what you and Mike gave him in his brief time he had with you. Just knowing he was love THAT much must have made him feel like he was king of the world and truely blessed.

    I am so sorry about Boo Boo. I know that has had to have just torn your heart out. Just know that we are all here for you when you feel like returning.

    Word just seem so useless at times like this..... but maybe you will find a tad bit of comfort in something someone says.
