Forgive me if this is the wrong place to put this. I did put it in the thread where I talked about all this BEFORE having to let Two Paws go-- however, I was not sure this update would be seen, since it was not "out front".
Is there a thread/forum for those who had to say "Good-bye" to their friends? It is so difficult! I've never had to do it before.
The following is a "copy and paste" from an update I put in the "Impacted Bowels" thread.-----
My TwoPaws is gone. I don't recall the exact date- about 4 weeks ago. I had taken TwoPaws to the Vet three times in two weeks. The last day I had the feeling I would not be bringing her home.
I was right. I went back to get her- she stayed for X-rays. I could see without the Vet telling me that she was well impacted for the 4th time in only a few weeks. My Vet tried everything he could think of to try. I tried herbs, oil, etc.. Nothing was working. TwoPaws was not doing well. I had to "let her go". I had been dealing with this myself since November of 2000.
This was Sooooooooo hard for me. She was almost 7 and I loved her deeply. I continue to miss her greatly, I even forget that she is not here and go looking for her at times.
My other cat, Misty who was 8 on April 1st use to be friends with her. However, the last 2 months of TwoPaws life they did not get along. TwoPaws was aggressive toward Misty, not allowing her anywhere near my bedroom-- where they use to sleep together with me. So, I do not believe Misty misses her at all, she seems more relaxed, not having to be on the "look out" for surprise attacks. However, I would have found a way to live with the discord if TwoPaws was not so ill.
Well, I just wanted to send this update to those who have tried helping me with this problem. I have never lost a pet that I cared about as much as I did TwoPaws. I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY miss her and can still cry about her. Will this ever pass?
