Nanki-Poo is gone. I still can't believe it. He came into my life on
November 10, 2004. I took him to the vet this afternoon. His sores were
healing, and I was hoping I could soon let him go outdoors. I noticed he was
breathing hard when I took him out of the carrier at the vet's. So did the
vet's assistant. He was very anemic and had fluid in his chest. She gave him
oxygen, but said he'd need a transfusion, to have the fluid aspirated, and
various other things, and it probably wouldn't save him anyway. She said his
heart was greatly enlarged, and he was in heart failure. It tore me apart,
but I made the only decision possible. The poor little guy went through so
much, but at least he was loved for the last 3 ½ years of his life. I can't
write any more now.

Oh Joy, I am so sorry. Poor little fellow, and poor you. You did your best
for him, and made sure he was loved.

I am so sorry for your loss. But to live and die as a well-loved
companion is a great thing for an animal. I'm sure you made the
kindest choice for poor Nanki-Poo, as hard as it was for you to let
him go. Kudos to you for having the courage to do the right, difficult
thing, and sympathetic hugs for your sad loss. We've all been there,
we know the sadness, and we're here with you now.

This is very sad news. I think many of us were "with you" as you went
through the last months with Nanki. He clearly left feeling loved and that
has to count for so much.

I'm so sorry to hear this. I had such high hopes... purrs for your broken
heart.

Sympathies on your loss, and know that you made the best decision. It's
always so hard...
