CPK Pet Thread

that cat had a great run, a really good life and we're all thankful to have had her around for as long as we did:thumbsup:
I was there with her to help ease her way out with the head scratches she always sought me out for. Now she's part of our yard and will be the food for a nice tree of some kind
 
Well, shit guys. Gypsy checked out last Tuesday morning at 9:56 am. I walked out of the room for a minute, went back in and she'd pooped a little. I said 'Whoa, you pooped, be right back'. I ran to the kitchen, went back in, then realized what happened. Since I'm a friggin poet I said 'Oh, you didn't poop, you died '.

She was in bed, bundled up. She'd been wagging her tail and being an asshole about getting her head scratched literally a minute before she left. She died 49 minutes before I was going to take her to the vet to be put down. She waited so I wouldn't have to watch her die and I didn't have to tell the vet to do it. It's amazing, I gotta say if I'm dying I'm gonna be a selfish shit. She took care of me to the end.

I was so lucky. If you're waiting on a sheath I'll get to it, I'm not that far behind.
just got back from the vet after having our 18 year old cat euthanized
I'm depressed not so much because I'll miss the cat, (I will) but because she's been our kid's best friend for her entire 15 year life. Growing up on a farm, I'm familiar with death, but my kid isn't. As a dad, this is one thing I cannot protect my child from and that's a brutal reality that I've been able to ignore until now.
It's going to be a tough weekend in the Arnold household

Sorry for your losses Dan and Lorien. My condolences.
