So sorry Melissa, purrs on their way.

I'm so sorry, Melissa. Many, many purrs for you and Pan.

Pan Update: I think it's going to be tomorrow, everyone. Pan is telling
me in the clearest way that a cat can that he is ready to go. I didn't
believe him last week, but I do, now. I'm still not ready for this, but
I am closer to ready than I was last week. Pan hasn't eaten anything
since yesterday morning, and is very quiet and listless. I've been
trying to coax him to eat with his favorite treat foods, but it is
not working. Last night, he didn't even want a bite of my broiled
chicken which was normally his favorite. Even when I held a tidbit
right under his nose, he just turned his head away, and the result is
the same this morning. I would take him in today, except that I have to
work noon to nine, and I don't want to be bawling in front of library
patrons. Tomorrow, I won't have to be at work until five p.m. which
will give me some time to collect myself before I have to face the
public. So please, more purrs for my old dear as he prepares to cross
the Rainbow Bridge.
Sadly,
Melissa

Many purrs on the way for you Melissa. It's so hard to let them go,
even when we know it's the best thing for them.

Piggybacking to say my thoughts are with you and sweet Pan.

Purrs for Pan and for you. It sounds like he's telling you the best
way he knows that he's ready to move on. I'm so sorry.

I'm back from the vet's office with an empty cat carrier, and a sad,
but not empty heart. Nina and Francesca are still here, after all, and
I'll have them both for a long time to come. Pan crossed the Rainbow
Bridge very gently and quickly, and it is my hope that he and Isadora
are together again on the far side, now. He pretty much collapsed
before Dr. Mell had even finished giving him the injection, and I
had quite a while to sit beside his thin little body and stroke him,
saying last goodbyes. The saddest time will be when I get into bed
tonight, and he won't be there to curl up on top of me under the
covers.

I'm very sad, of course, but okay. I had left it too long in Isadora's
case two years ago, which I vowed I would not do for Panther. He had a
gentle, dignified end.

I was wondering about dear Pan today and how you were holding up. I'm
so sorry. He's feeling much better now. Let the rest of your family
help you grieve.

My sincere condolences. I will light a candle for Pan.

Purrs for you, and for Pan's journey to rejoin Isadora, which he surely
will do.

Deb & furry family.
