I am so sorry to hear this, but these two were lucky enough to get to you and know some love and warmth, and be set free with dignity and with someone who loved them, it could have been so much worse for them. RIP little ones, reunited again.

'What suffering and fright these poor girls must have been through prior to coming to me.'

It doesn't bear thinking about. I am just glad you were there for them at the end and they didn't die frightened and alone.

I totally agree JS, I do hope they are so proud of themselves. The vet was wandering if whoever dumped them knew that they were both ill and either could not afford the treatment or could not face doing the deed themselves. If it is the latter then all they had to do was leave them at the vets for the vet to deal with it. Not to dump where it would be difficult for them to be found. What suffering and fright these poor girls must have been through prior to coming to me.

At times like this I hope karma is on the case of the people who did this to Perdy and Nicky.

RIP Nicky, Perdy will be waiting for you.

Little Nicky has had to join her sister Perdy on the bridge this morning.

She had gone downhill quite fast overnight and was rushed to the vets this morning. She had a grade 6 heart murmmer and her heart was starting to fail. :(

The vet said she could prop her up but said we might only get another month with her if that, the timing of only a couple more weeks was more realistic. She would continue to decline over Easter as the process had already started, by her not eating, lethargy and dehydration etc.

I have a pregnant stray in that is due to give birth next week and I did not want to be tied up with her and miss any further signs of decline with Nicky, also as her condition was starting to go down and she clearly was not happy then the decision had to be made to prevent any further suffering. Like her sister she went peacefully in my arms this morning.

Healing thoughts please for Purdy's little sister, Nicky. Coming out of her usual hidey hole tonight she tried to be sick and all she could muster was some stomach acid. She has developed bilateral conjunctivitis and on the right it is a bloody discharge. Some blood droplets in her little hidey hole that looks as if she has sneezed blood, cannot see anywhere else it has come from. Refusing to eat and looks quite wretched.

Back to the vets in the morning then. :(

I'm so sorry, Dabs - you did everything you could. And the love Perdy knew just before she past over will have made a difference to her.

RIP Perdy, a beautiful lady who was treated badly before being seen for the gem you were.

Glad her sister has a new home. :hug:

Thank you all, I do not feel so tearful now and losing two cats in one week has taken its toll on me a bit. :( However there are still cats out there that need our help and life goes on as they say.

She passed over loved and cared for and I feel guilty as I feel that I should have done more. As OH said at the vets, it should be her so called owners that should be there watching the process and they should be the ones to feel guilty not me.

Her sister however can now be rehomed complete with funky haircut, so at least one life was saved.

« Reply #38 on: March 30, 2009, 16:23:41 PM »
The odds were not stacked in Perdy's favour and the painful decision was taken today to end her suffering. She had had a good weekend, but overnight she had had a set back and this morning was clearly distressed.

She slipped away peacefully being loved and cuddled this afternoon at the vets. My only consolation is that I probably showed this little lass more love and kindness in the week and a half she was with us than she probably had in her lifetime.

RIP Perdy.
