Lindy is gone
Thank you, CatNipped.
-- Joy No amount of time can erase the memory of a good cat, and no amount of masking tape can ever totally remove his fur from your couch. - Leo Dworken "CN" wrote in message ... Oh Joy, I am so, so sorry to hear that. Please accept my condolences on the loss of your loved one. Purrs are headed your way to help heal your breaking heart, and a candle will be lit tonight to help guide Lindy on her way to the Bridge. {{{{{Joy}}}}} Hugs, CatNipped "Joy" wrote in message ... Lindy woke me up this morning, vomiting on the bed. It looked like clear fluid and blood. There wasn't a lot, but I called the vet after they opened. They said to bring her in, along with her food and medicine. I also took a couple of pictures of the places where she had vomited, with a ruler so the vet could see how much there was. The vet later said the pictures were very helpful. They had me leave her. The vet called about half an hour later. She said Lindy's gums were pink and she was dehydrated. She said the bleeding was probably caused by ulceration of the stomach, which could be the result of either the Prednisone or the cancer. She said, "If we are going to continue ..." we'd need blood tests, x-rays, infusion, shots and more oral medication. She gave me some time to think about it, but I realized there was only one thing to do. I called the vet and said I wanted to come and say goodbye to her. When I got there, I took care of the financial part. Then they brought her out in the waiting room, and I held her for a few minutes, but she was trembling, so I said let's get it over with. They took her, put in a shunt and brought her back. I sat in the examining room holding her, and she kept crying, so I told them to come finish. They had put a towel on the counter where the animals are treated. I set her down on the towel, and she started purring. When the vet and the tech came back, she kept on purring as the sedative was injected. Then she laid down. I think she was asleep as the vet injected the rest. -- Joy No amount of time can erase the memory of a good cat, and no amount of masking tape can ever totally remove his fur from your couch. - Leo Dworken |

She started purring because she knew you were going to send her where she would know no pain or vomiting. She loves you and, if she can, she will wait for you. You may well know her persence again.
