But like you, I feel it was the best thing to do given his health issues. I think about him everyday. We got the individual cremation, which allows us to have a little box of his ashes. The box they gave us has a place to put a picture, which we did with one of the pictures we took of him being silly. For now, I've got the box up in a little shrine that I see everyday and it makes me smile to think about how me made me laugh so much.</p> <p>I hope you and Corey will find some peace in knowing he's not in pain and in remembering the good times with the little guy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-rip-to-our-cat/page/2#post-134025 Sat, 13 Mar 2010 16:46:52 +0000 chellebrate 134025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sorry. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-rip-to-our-cat/page/2#post-134003 Sat, 13 Mar 2010 15:15:32 +0000 Beth 134003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Michelle, hugs to you and Corey. Doing the right thing can be so hard. We lost two of our kitties over the last 18 months and I still feel their absence every day. In a way, though, it's a tribute to how special they were. It's the same with Freddie.</p> <p>{{hugs}} </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-rip-to-our-cat/page/2#post-133942 Sat, 13 Mar 2010 05:33:15 +0000 LoP 133942@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So sorry to hear this! It is the hardest decision, but he's in rest now. </p> <p>Our cat has the same bladder crystal problem. They are in so much pain when that happens and don't live much if it is not treated. So you made the more humane decision I think. It has been expensive for us in the past. I feel like we'll have the make the same decision one day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-rip-to-our-cat/page/2#post-133924 Sat, 13 Mar 2010 04:45:36 +0000 yublocka 133924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Michelle, I just read this thread now (I get behind on googlereader a lot).

It even had angel wings and a halo. He is with me every Christmas for the rest of my life, and I love that.<br /> If you ever need a virtual shoulder to cry on, don't hesitate to message me.

We lost our cat last year to the exact same thing - he'd had the problems several times and it kept getting worse, and the surgery just didn't seem like it was going to help. It sounds like you gave Freddie a good life and a lot of love during his time here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-rip-to-our-cat#post-133328 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 18:56:27 +0000 Kristine 133328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so sorry Michelle!

It is a painful but very brave decision to make for a beloved pet. I hope you and Corey will both find comfort in knowing that you saved Freddie Cat and gave him a wonderful life that he likely wouldn't have had otherwise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-rip-to-our-cat#post-133263 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 16:15:54 +0000 Maya 133263@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:( </p> <p>I'm so, so sorry you had to make this painful decision, Michelle. Losing a pet is such a heartbreaking experience. And on Corey's birthday! Big hugs for both of you. </p> <p>Lucie had a UTI last year, which is very rare in female kitties, but it was awful to watch. I have never seen her so sick and distressed before, and then on top of that she had a really bad reaction to the antibiotic. I hated not being able to do anything for her. Luckily she came back 100% within a few weeks but it was rough and I can't even imagine what it's like for this to be a recurring experience. You made the right choice for little Freddy. </p>
