Very Sad Day at the ZooCrew House

TheZooCrew May 04, 2011 05:37 PM

Cuddles sadly changes his blue collar for a black one. It's not much of a zoo around here anymore. On Monday, Katie's remaining Guinea Pig, Linny, died. None of us can figure out why, so MommySharon thinks she just got too lonesome for Squeaker. Then, yesterday while MommySharon was at work, Tinkerbell had a stroke. MommySharon came home to find her lying on the living room floor not able to move. There was nothing a vet could do at that point, so MommySharon just laid on the floor with her and loved her until she stopped breathing. Tinkerbell may be happy and well at the Bridge, but MommySharon is a mess. I think maybe her heart stopped beating when Tinkerbell's did.

>>Mom sez hurr hart hurts wif you mom cuz losin dese speshal ones just messes too much wiff hoomin harts an bwains. Dey don't eber gets back to normal.

I know that's true. I once told Tinkerbell that the way she was always on top of MommySharon was really needy, and she told me that MommySharon was needier than she was because of how much she missed her other cats who had already gone to the Bridge, especially Patches. I've been trying to spend a little time with her, but since I'm really Katie's cat, I give my best loving to her.

Purrs,

Cuddles

Thank you, everyone, for the GLOW, PRAYERS and LOVE. Tink let me know that she was glad I was with her. I could actually see her relax and her breathing get smoother when she heard my voice and I started stroking her. That's one thing I get to keep. She wasn't the easiest cat for others to live with, but she loved me with a truly fierce devotion, and I returned that with all my heart. The house seems so empty now. I haven't sat on the couch (or anywhere else in the house) alone in fifteen years.

I know it will be difficult, but I am glad that she's not suffering.

Love,

MommySharon

The Catnip Kits all climb onto Auntie Sharon's lap and give her cheek rubs and headbonks and then settle down to snuggle on her lap in the hopes that it can ease her aching heart just a teeny tiny little bit. Mommy Catnip sends big cyber hugs and heartfelt sympathy to te entire ZooCrew household, especially Mommy Sharon. {{{{{{}}}}}}
