I am going to start filtering some of my more private musings. Since blogger does not have a tool for that, you will need to visit my Live Journal and ask to be friended there. I will continue to post Daily Gratitude and other subjects here. There is also a FAQ for my Journal at the same link.
Rest in Peace
| Monday, March 21, 2005 @ 12:53 This morning my Baby Cat died. Later this week I'll update my daily logs(http://www.livejournal.com/users/missmyth/) and put in the progression of the last few days. I had a miserable night last night as I tried to decide whether it was better to take him to the emergency vet and have him put to sleep or wait until today to take him to the clinic where he knows everyone and they all like him. In the end I decided to wait and see if he made it through the night (he did, but was barely breathing at 7 am) and then call the vet to set up an appt to put him to sleep. As we waited for the appointment time, we checked on him now and then. Sometime between 8:30 and 9:00, he died. boy called the vet and made the arrangements and we drove the body over to be cremated. I don't want the ashes, but I did cut some of his hair to keep for awhile. We came home and cleared out all the medicines and food and syringes, etc. Luckily, I have a boss who understands that a cat who shared your life for 12 years is just as important as a child I'll never have. I don't have to go to work until tomorrow. I'm very, very sad even though I'm grateful that his suffering is over (and I know he suffered horribly the last twenty-four hours). I will miss him.
