We took her to the vet a few hours ago, her kidneys finally gave out. She
was fine yesterday, this morning she ate breakfast but then she was falling
over when she tried to stand up or walk. An effect of the kidney  by
products affecting her brain.

We had a cuddle and said goodbye..

I've known this would happen for so long but it still hurts.

Thanks for all your purrs and thoughts

I'm so sorry.  She must have loved being with you very much to have

Thank you. Even very recently she would like to be close to her humans. I'm
missing having her nearby constantly.

Kathryn let the tears flow take, the time to grieve just always remember
speak their name so the memory never fades.  Our friends that have past
speak ours all the times  you know they do.  You feel it every time the
winds blows across your face or you catch the glimpse out of the corner of
your eye. ;-)

I wrote this after reading the rainbow bridge for the first time.  I knew it
was incomplete so these words flowed from my heart to my hand.  Now I give
it to every one who has lost a piece of their soul.

Always remember We will be there even if you can't see us.
We are always Watching and Waiting. That cool puff of air you
feel across your cheek, that fleeting touch, the feeling you have
that I was walking across your bed, that moment you swear you can
hear us, that flicker of movement out of the corner of your eye.
Is just our way of saying I love you and I am with you always even
in the darkest time We Will Always Be There. Till our paws touch again
always know we love you and cherished our special time together

I'm so very sorry. She was such a brave old lady. Of course it hurts
when you lose a companion who has been with you for so long. Many
soothing purrs coming your way.

Thank you Marina. She was a companion and a friend and just so much more. I

She had a good life with a loving family, and I'm sure she knew it.
Hopefully the hurt will give way to happy memories soon.

How very, very sad to hear this news.

There is no way to really get ready for losing your beloved kitty, no
matter how long you have been trying to prepare yourself.

I have lit a candle, in my very special candle holder in the shape of a
sleeping cat, for your Sesame's trip to the Bridge.

And purrs are on the way to help ease your grief.

Thanks Adrian. I posted the purr request when we were leaving to go to the
vet. Even though I didn't see any replies before I left it was comforting to
know that people would be reading it.

Kathryn, Sesame was fortunate to have you for her human.  It always
hurts to lose them! But I don't think anyone on this board would forgo
feline companionship, even knowing that eventual sad farewells are an
inevitable part of the deal when we first take that adorable new cat
home with us.  I hope Sesame had a gentle passage over the bridge.
She'll have fine company on the far side while she waits for you. Purrs
for your loneliness. And, as I say to everyone, a new cat friend is one
of the best sources of comfort for those mourning the passing of a long
time four-footed companion. Not right away, no. But soon.

Another friend of mine had to say farewell to her own frail and
elderly cat about a week ago.  He had been having elevated thyroid
trouble, but what took Edgar in the end was also kidney failure.  He
was nearly 18 years old, and always at the top of the feline pecking
order, as the grand patriarch of her household. In some ways, his
passing now resolved a difficult dilemma for my friend who is planning
to move back to the States in March after 20 years in Ireland. She
couldn't quite bear to leave Edgar behind after so many years of loving
companionship, but was very concerned about the stress of a
transatlantic journey on an elderly cat in failing health. I think that
Edgar, being the intelligent cat he was, realized some major change was
in the offing, even if he didn't understand all the details, and took
matters into his own  paws, resolving both her dilemma and his own.

   So Sesame will be in the presence of other beloved cats who have
recently made their final journey. It will be hard without her for a
while, but it will ease.

I'm expecting this to happen to Kitty FC before too long.  At the moment,
though, she's doing fine.
Purrs to you for the loss of Sesame.  Even though she had a long life it's
not easy to let her go.

Please give her a cuddle for me

I will.  We have the woodburner lit and she is meatloafing on the sofa after
having enjoyed her meal of senior cat food (chicken), eaten it all up, had a
wee in the litterbox and a poo behind the woodburner and she is set for the
night.
I have to poke a stick under the woodburner daily to get her offerings out -
they burn well!  I'm not going to say anything to her about it, although she
obviously remembers that she shouldn't as she looks round surreptiously
first.   If I see her looking round when she is near the fire, I try and
look the other way.  This is a concession to her great age, I wouldn't
tolerate it from a young well cat.

It's okay.  I've done it myself several times.  No problem.

Hello All.

I'm new to the group, but not to cats. As I sit here, Ketzl is running
amok over some foolish thing he's gotten into his head, and I can't
help but laugh. He found me at a shelter three years ago and has been a
true buddy ever since. Saved me from myself a lot of times.

Kathryn, I have lost pets before and I know how it feels. They truly
are gifts from the universe. Cherish the memories. When the healing has
begun, you'll probably find a new friend. Or one will find you.

LOL - I like the idea that Ketzl found *you* at a shelter. :)

Welcome to RPCA! Any pictures of Ketzl to share?

PS - that's what my grandmother used to call me, Ketzla.

Sure I have pix. As I said to someone else who asked:

Do you want
1. A head shot
2. A tail shot
3. Full body, curled
4. Full body standing
5. Full body stretched out
6. Front-on.
7. Rear-on.
8. Rear-on tail down.
9. Rear-on, tail up (not for the squeamish.)
etc.

Anyway, there are a few here:

Ketzl is beautiful. I love the hour-glass white spot on his nose. It
kind of looks like a glowy spot, like light.

In the "Wait - I've heard this one before" photo, he looks a bit like
the Maneki Neko. Got any powerful people to impress? :)

Thanks, Joyce.

That wonderful white blaze was the first thing I saw of him at the
shelter. I was looking at the cat in the cage above Ketzl's and
suddenly I became aware of a commotion below. I looked down and in the
darkened room all I could see was the blaze moving back and forth. When
I looked more closely I saw it was atop the head of an outstretched cat
standing on his hind legs and pawing at the cage door. The message was
clear: Hey you! I'm willing to give you a chance.

Twenty minutes later he was taking charge of the apartment.

As for Maneki Neko: Lucky cat indeed!

Kathryn, you do not need to reply to every message about Sesame.
Just grieve, appreciate the posts but understand that you do not have to
respond to any of them at this time.
We will all understand.
I know what it's like. I sobbed every day as soon as I woke up for 2 months
when I lost one of my most beloved ones.
It will eventually ease, trust me on this.
