Princess, Princess Trixie, Miss Paws, Wee Betty, Wee Pie - she had a million names but there was only one of her. She had an acute event yesterday, we rushed her to the vets but as soon as I seen her I knew. She was at deaths door many times and every time she fought it, I don't think any of us ever thought the day would come she would go. 18 years and 5 months, a multitude of health issues, more sass than any furbaby I have ever had, I loved the wee one and haven't stopped crying since yesterday.
We got to be with her on her final journey and even at the very end she gave a wee throaty growl/sass to the vet. My little book "helper" poser and legend, our home is empty and my heart is broken. We have already had so many messages and love from folk, some who never got the pleasure of meeting her but followed her antics online and got invested in all of her health ups and downs.
The last week she spent mostly sleeping on our bed which she never did and we were so lucky to get as long as we did with her. She posed with so many books, scattered so much about and had she been at herself I am sure she would have took out my new trolley accessory. Her wee claws firmly got into our hearts. Gone but never forgotten, absolute legend and furry book geek.
So sorry to hear about this. I love animals especially cats. If it is any consolation, it sounds like Princess Trixie had a wonderful life.
ReplyDeleteTake care.
Thanks Brian, devastated, she was such a huge part of my life. xxx
DeleteI'm so sorry!! I'll send you all the strength you need.
ReplyDeleteMy own cat is 17 years old and lives with my mom, since my BF is allergic. But I go over there to hug and cuddle her every week. I don't even want to think about her dying... :(
Thank you, just enjoy every opportunity xxx
DeleteI'm so sorry, Lainy. She was so sweet and sassy. Sending hugs across the miles to you.
ReplyDeleteShe really was, thank you xxx
DeleteThat last picture just broke my heart... sending you virtual hugs ❤️
ReplyDeleteWe took that one a whiley ago, she was just being the sweetest wee chop. She defied death so many times, don't think we ever believed she would go xxx
DeleteOh, Lainy.... you have my sincere sympathy! My life is full of rescued dogs (10), but I also have three grand-kitties that I love. It's never easy losing our four-legged babies (at any age) and I pray for comfort and peace for you during this difficult time. (((hugs)))
ReplyDeleteThank you Kelly, the outpour of love from people who never even met her but followed her online has been so nice. She was such a special wee soul <3 xxx
DeleteWhat a cutie, I am sorry for your loss.
ReplyDeleteLainy, I am so so sorry. Our fur companions are a big part of our families and when we lose them, they leave a big hole in our lives. Sending hugs your way.
ReplyDeleteLainy, I only just saw the dates under the wee one's picture. So sorry, but oh! you had her for so long and how lovely was that. xx
