Oh Jackie... I am so sorry Rolo didn't make it.. I am glad for the wonderful years you had with him and it sounds as if in the end, he did not suffer too much. That is something to be thankful for. It is so hard to say goodbye though, be kind to yourself and give yourself some space to come to terms with it. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

So sorry Jackie. I lost one of my cats about a year ago and know how very hard it is. Thinking of you and your family.

Joanna said...

Jackie, so sorry to read this. {hugs}

Cheri C. said...

I had been praying if at all possible that kitty would make it but if not, let Rolo go quickly and no pain. I had a battle last year with a stray that I had taken in for 1.5 years. She had breast cancer and I did surgery which seemed to make things end more quickly. So, I can relate to what you are going through. I truly believe that all our little animal friends will see us on the other side. My prayers will still be with you and your family during this time of loss.

I am so sorry to hear about Rolo, I was afraid of that, after what you said. I know from experience that big kitties can end up with heart failure, so I know how you feel. He had a loving home and lots of love in his final days and A kitty can ask for nothing better.

JANET said...

I am so very sorry . I know how it feels to lose your furbaby. We lost ours two years ago after 18 years together. It felt like losing a child. My prayers are with you and please remember it will get less painful as time goes on. It took us 2 years but we just adopted new furbabies, both 7yrs old. They seem to know we need them as much as they needed us. God Bless and always keep Rolo's memor with you

Unknown said...

May you be comforted with many memories in time. Right now, I know it hurts and tears are ever present. I lost my little boy Henry last year and still look for him, even though we have added a new little boy - Barney. Such devoted snugglers are hard to lose.
