Thanks for all the purrs guys. Unfortunately, there was nothing anyone could do because the poor little chap had no bladder control left. I made the decision to have him go to Rainbow Bridge rather than live without dignity confined in a cage. I'm gutted. Helen M -- Purrs.

The poor wee thing should not have had to endure such misery and it should have been noticed so very much sooner. At least he finally found someone who cared. For a little scrap that was cared for very little in his tiny life he is getting tears worldwide not. I'm so sorry your heart was put on the line in the process, but so glad you were able to get him what he needed. Jo > Thanks for all the purrs guys.

You did the kindest thing for poor Tiny Tim. I'm really grieving for him and I only knew about him for 12 hours or so. Poor mite. At least he found love and kindness at the end.

Eventually you will be able to console yourself with the fact that you did everything you could, and a lot more than most people would have done. Joy >Thanks for all the purrs guys.

Knowing how embarrassed and upset mine are if they have an 'accident', you're quite right, he would have been miserable all the time. You did the right thing, hard as it may seem. Purrs and Hugs, O J I'm so very sorry, Helen. Purrs for the little one on his way to the RB and purrs to soothe your heart. Christine > Thanks for all the purrs guys.

He passed over with someone to care for him and look out for him...that must be a consolation. He did not pass unknown or unloved. Someday, when you are ready, his spot in your home will go to save another life. But his spot in your heart will always be his own. --Fil >Thanks for all the purrs guys.

Blessings to the poor little guy on his way to the Bridge. At least he knew love for a little while.

I [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Helen M Oh, Helen, I'm so sorry. Even Harri Roadcat is subdued upon hearing that. At least the poor little thing went to the bridge having known what it is to be loved and cared for. To experience those things briefly is far better than not to experience them at all. Purrs coming for you to deal with the loss, and for the little one to find his way to the Bridge peacefully. He'll have a lot of good company there. Dan Purrs for you, Helen.

It is absolutely unbelievable that they anesthetized and neutered him with no concern for his underlying health. Or that they said they did and didn't.

I think that's what hurts almost as much as the fact he had to go to RB. The fact the VET didn't notice, but I did. -- > Thanks for all the purrs guys.

I have only just seen your ealier post and was hoping for the best. At least the poor little chap was loved at the end. SignatureAdrian (Owned by Snoopy & Bagheera) A house is not a home, without a cat. > Thanks for all the purrs guys.

I > made the decision to have him go to Rainbow Bridge rather than live > without dignity confined in a cage. > > I'm gutted. Crying with you, Helen. It's too late for this little guy ;-(, but I want to post this for others that might come across something similar. http://www.marvistavet.com/html/body_cats_with_broken_tails.html Loss of bladder control is common with some tail injuries, but with time and a commitment from the caretaker to make sure the bladder is expressed a few times a day during thehealing process (which is a fairly easy thing to learn to do at home), a lot of cats will make a full recovery and regain bladder control. According to the link a month's wait is a reasonable time to see if any function is regained and a decision for the future can be based on that. There was a website that a poster that used to be on RPCHB has up that tells the story of her cat Major Barbara, who had a similar problem. The site isn't up anymore, but an archived version of the story is here: http://web.archive.org/web/20040219150136/http://www.specialneedspets.org/major.htm: Megan Signature"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." -Edmund Burke Learn The TRUTH About Declawing http://www.stopdeclaw.com Zuzu's Cats Photo Album: http://www.PictureTrail.com/zuzu22 "Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his way." - W.H. Murray So sorry about this. But like others have said, you did everything you could, including the ultimate kindness of an "easy" death.
