Sweet Pea is gone. Candle lighting
For a dear friend retired in Florida who got Sweet Pea only in
March. History: "I got a little more information on her history. She was one of 45 Persians that were rescued from an owner that apparently was not doing a very good job of caring for them. That may explain a bit of why she is smaller. I picked up Sweet Pea in Orlando about noon today. When I took her out of her foster mom's carrier to put her in mine, she crawled up my chest, put her head in my neck and purred. I don't think it was my cologne she liked, she was just happy someone rescued her from that carrier. But she didn't argue when I put her in mine, just walked in, turned around ,meowed once, laid down and went to sleep. She's a bit small for her age I think, about 4-5lbs. Her coat is healthy, eyes clear, nose clean and everything is proportionate. I think with some quality food and TLC, she will soon begin to pick up some weight. She will be 4 years old the end of June. " Sweet Pea died suddenly tonight. She was taken to the vets for autopsy. She just died. Please sign a candle for grieving Steve. He is retired and living in Florida. He just adopted another stray only a couple weeks ago, but is in total shock about her cherished Sweet Pea. http://www.gratefulness.org/candles/...fm?l=eng&gi=SP Thank you! |

And for Sweet Pea, although she is beyond pain and fear and may well be there to greet her One True Hoomin when he arrives at the Rainbow Bridge. They only had a short time together but they won each others' hearts and it shows in your words and his. -- Will in New Haven |

Thanks for lighting candles everyone. I know how much it meant to me when Casey died and I still get candles lit from December. I know Steve is going to bookmark that page and read them all over and over and over. It helps to know you have support from other pet lovers with this tremendous grief. |

Thanks for thinking of Sweet Pea and Steve and lighting a candle. He was really touched by the outpouring of support in this time of grief. He got the vet's autopsy report yesterday and he said: "I spoke with the Vet today. Sweet Pea died of heart failure. She was always so tiny and never gained any weight to speak of. But she was fairly active so I never gave it another thought. Figured that was just the way she would always be; tiny and skinny. Apparently her heart was just not the way it should be. Even if a vet had discovered this, there was nothing to be done for it." |

Sweet Pea is gone. Candle lighting
God, it is so hard...
Lighting a candle for dear Sweet Pea. She had three months of good, solid love. I wish I could say it were enough consolation for someone who must be in horrid grief. I can say your frind's love carried the baby safely over, and they will have one heck of an eternity together someday.
