Because so many of you were kind enough to post or send personal messages of support, I thought I'd let you know that Amber's test results came back to the vet's today and showed that there was nothing more that could be done to help her; she had a degenerative kidney condition that was just going to make her weaker and weaker, so Stella and I took the painful but easy decision to let her go when she was still free of pain, and after an injection into her drip she died peacefully in my arms, with me stroking her between the eyes as she loved, at just before 5pm.

Back in 2002, we had a serious cat problem in the street where I live -- here in Plymouth, Devon. The people who lived in a house on my block had moved out suddenly, leaving behind several un-sterilised cats, which began breeding with other stray cats in the area. My family, with the blessing of the RSPCA, caught as many of these stray cats as possible, using a special trap that they loaned out to us.
One of the cats that we caught was a tiny little female whom I named Cleopatra. We decided to keep her, and ever since then I have nursed her back to health and won her trust and confidence; she was the dearest, most affectionate and sweet-hearted cat you could ever hope to meet. On Friday, she died suddenly of a heart attack, caused by a clot on the lungs, according to the vet. I miss her terribly and have shed many tears since. I don't really know what else to say. Sweet dreams Cleo. -------------------- |
