Thanks, Phil and everybody who sent their condolences.  Maybe you'll take
a look at the beautiful little girl I lost.  The only thing I know she had
a problem with was eosinophilic stomatitis (sp).  Otherwise, her health
was always good.  It was a shock, but I guess it always is.  She was
laying there in a normal sleep position, didn't look like she struggled.
I just have no idea what could have happened.  I didn't hear her cry in
the night or anything.  Yesterday she sat here on the chair with me as I
did e-mails and stuff.  She was headbutting me and purring....

They never stay with us long enough.  :(

. Sometimes cats show no signs of the

Or they don't show it until they are really ill. Our beloved Fugazi
aged 12 spent a Tuesday morning winning a game of "King of the Castle"
with her sister Isis (RB)  had a weird turn later on in the day and had
to cross the Bridge on the next day at 6.10 in the evening because of
cancer

It  was just a huge shock to us she had advanced cancer,  a heart
murmur and signs of kidney failure at the vets and the day before she
had been winning a game with her sister!

Looking at the vet and saying "Okay lets do what has to be done" was
the hardest sentence I ever had to say

I confess I didn't stay for the last bit..Okay if that makes me bad but
she had an injection on my lap and fell asleep purring then I handed
her to the vet to do what had to be done

Then went outside and paid the bill (They didn't charge me for the box
of tissues I used) abd freaked out the waiting room because they saw me
go in with a cat and come out without one
