Default Saying good-bye to Basho

Basho, my sweet baby boy has stopped eating. As you may remember, he
was diagnosed with CRF a few months ago and TED said he would likely
not make it to x-mas. She was right. It's time for me to give him the
ultimate gift of love, breaking my heart in the process. I'm calling
the mobile vet this morning to send Basho to the Rainbow Bridge, to
meet up with Quetzie and the rest of the rpca gang.
As I'm typing this, Basho is purring on my lap. I think he's telling
me it's ok to let him go. It's hard to see the screen through the
tears.
Good-bye my sweet Basho. I will miss you so much. Thank you for all
these years of devoted love and affection. I love you always. I'm
sorry you won't be able to join your brother Issa in our next
adventure, but I'm sure you'll be looking after us alongside Quetzie.

I am so very sorry, Victor. It is so hard to do, but it is often the most
loving gift we can give them.

Purrs to all of you. Basho will no doubt be welcomed at the Bridge by my
dear Cleopatra.

Purrs to you both, for Basho's gentlest of crossings, and for your
heart, Victor. Never easy, but the bravest thing you can do, and the
most loving.

Be a good boy for your Daddy when you're over there, Basho, and look
for my Fritzie and Dolly. They'll show you around. The catnip is
abundant and there are always sunbeams to lie in. Someday you and your
dear family will be together again and never have to leave one
another.

Blessed be,
Baha

I'm so sorry, Victor. I have lit a candle for Basho.

I am so sorry to hear this. Purrs for an easy crossing for Basho and
purrs of comfort for you. Their lives are usually shorter than ours
so there is the pain of loss, but I can't imagine a life any more
that
didn't include kitties so we have to take the pain to get the joy of
their company.

My thoughts are with you.
