"fuga =^o^=" wrote in message ble.rogers.com... Oh no. I am sorry to hear this about Creampuff. How devastating. If there's anything I can do feel free to write me. Hugs, fuga Renee,I feel it's the quality of life that's most important. It's hard to know what's best for you and your situation but I think you should follow your instinct and to be honest, if I were in your place I would choose as you have done. Purrs and hugs for you and Creampuff. Christine |

Hi, guys! Happy holidays to you all! Our pretty tree sits on a low table, which is covered by a green cloth, then a decorated tree skirt. But what is that sticking out from under the green cloth? Can it be a tail? Or is it a paw? Or paws? The answer to all of the above is YES! I wish I had better news from TED. Creampuff saw (was seen by!) a specialist Tuesday, as he continues to lose weight and is so HUNGRY! They did an UltraSound -- had to shave his beautiful belly for this and he is mortified! -- and found that the problem is with his liver --perhaps the Bg C. The UltraSound, diagnosis and medication cost me $505.00. The specialist wants to do exploratory surgery (cost estimated at $1400 to possibly $2120). After much prayer and thought, I have decided not to put him through this trauma and pain. It is NOT the money, although it is a very serious consideration. He is 11 years old and has known only love and kindness for his whole life. (He is the one I found in the dumpster at two weeks old!) We are going to love him like crazy, take very good care of him, and say a tearful goodbye when the time comes. It is breaking my heart. Comments? Renee "Time spent with cats is never wasted." Colette "I've traveled a long way -- and some of the roads weren't paved!" Anon "I am too blessed to be stressed" Anon Renee, You've been a member of our family for many years and I feel I know you as well as I do some of my friends that live near. I know that you will make the decision that is best for Creampuff despite how much pain it will cause you. You have our most sincere purrs, gentle headbutts, loving thoughts and prayers and Creampuff will be feeling gentle, encouraging headbutts from my three as well. Julie, Hobbes, Selena and Lacey |
