Over the last year he has been slowly showing his age more and more and consistently losing weight and this past week I took him to his vet once more and got some special canned food to try to bolster his little body, but to no avail.
I will not go into all the details but I feel in my heart that his time is coming to an end and it is very hard for me to face.
We are in the middle of a winter storm, my car's transmission went last week and my budget is depleted, so all I can do is hold him in my arms and rock him and pray that Jesus will peacefully take his little soul home.
I am asking that you please take a minute from your day and pray that his passing will be easy and quiet with little pain.
I thank you in advance for your thoughtfulness and compassion.

my thoughts are with you
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you're going through this, but it sounds like you gave him a great life :) My prayers are definitely with you, we just went through this with our dog in January.

Yes, I will be sending you warm caring thoughts and warm hugs. It's so hard to loose a pet and Pumpkin is so much more. I've been there, and it's not easy.
ReplyDeleteWish I were closer to you right now so ease your burden(s).

Tina, I am so sorry to read this. Not so long ago, I had to make the decision for my Sweet Emma Lou, my 23 year old kitty. It broke my heart, but it was the right thing to do by her. I can only offer prayers and comforting words...Pumpkin was lucky to have you in his life and I know from experience that your's was much enriched by Pumpkin. I share your pain. Blessings to you, Julie.
ReplyDeleteOh Tina, I am so sorry about pumpkin, I so wish their life span was longer than ours!

My heart is sinking... Tina, I am so sorry for you, and for your dear little cat. They are such joys and treasures in our lives and to watch him slip away must be just so heart-breaking for you. I hope his last days are peaceful and easy, as you have asked. I also hope you can take comfort in knowing you did waht you could and loved him well.... I am thinking of you both.
ReplyDeleteSending warm and loving hugs your way ...
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts are with you during this time... for those of us who love animals, especially our fur babies, it is a time we dread... take heart and remember the love and good memories he has given you, for memories are the photographs our hearts take and they will be carried with you always to look at any time... I know it has been a few days since your post, and I have just come upon you... but positive thoughts are being sent your way and for your sweet Pumpkin! Cheers~
