A week ago, Ahi was fine. Today, Stefani had to have him euthanized. It was with deep sadness that she made this choice.

Thank you Stefani, for giving Ahi a great four months that he otherwise would not have had. And thank you for giving him a family, with cats (some more accepting than others), with which to share his final months.

Ahi quickly progressed through blindness into trouble mobilizing to not eating. He saw an opthalmologist yesterday and a neurologist today. The neurologist's best guess is that Ahi had a rapidly progressing pituitary tumor. Stefani made the hardest and kindest decision to end Ahi's confusion and suffering. He passed to the rainbow bridge lying on her chest, on the heart that loved him so.

Bless you, Stefani, for taking in the tough ones. I am so very sorry your big heart keeps getting broken. I have lit a candle for the beloved Ahi, finally home at the bridge and sending you in spirit all the love he gave you in body.
 
OH NO NONONO!! Tears falling.............. (((((((((((((((((((((STEF)))))))))))))))))) I am so very sorry that you didnt have more time with Ahi. HOw fast this all happened OMG.. Wrapping you in cyber hugs. Ahi is flying free, whole and healthy over the Rainbow Bridge rb_icon

You are the best mommabean Ahi could have had.
 
Oh, how very sad this news is to hear. I am so so very sorry to hear that Stefani had to make this sad decision. But, it was the right one to make, as hard as it was.

I cried when I opened this post and watched the sweet video that was posted.

My heart and prayers go out to Stefani. Ahi is now at peace and playing with our other furbabies in a perfect body.

Sending many (((((HUGS))))) to Stefani, and to you, Venita for having to post this sad news.

fly free beautiful AHI
((((((((((STEPH))))))))))
 
(((Stefani)))

So sorry! Thank you for giving him a wonderful few months in a loving home. I loved the video - he was having a great time playing.
 
If he could talk it would have been thank you for all the years of care, the flood of tears, mounds of laughtes and at the end for making the most loving decision. ((((hugs to U )))) Maaryon
 
Oh no! This is so shocking and I'm sure no less so for Steph :( I'm so sad for both of them. He was such a sweetie :(
 
It may not seem like it, but Ahi was so very lucky.
He was lucky to find you and your compassion when he needed it most.
(((((((Stef)))))))
 
Stef, my deepest and most heartfelt sympathy on the loss of Ahi. He will be remembered by so many. I loved watching him on the video and was so praying he would be okay. They say animals only live in the present...no yesterdays........no tomorrows.......only today.....and for four months Ahi lived in a home where he was loved......every day he felt your love....and he passed away in those arms of love. Only you know his life was too short but for Ahi it was forever. My heart goes out to you.

Oh Stef you have all my sympathy. That little guy went through so much but he was blessed in having your gentle hand to guide his last months.
 
Oh Steph, I'm so very sorry for your loss of little Ahi. Take comfort in knowing you loved him tenderly, and he knew it.
He left this world in the arms he loved. I'm so sorry for your pain.
 
Stefani, I am so very sorry about Ahi. Your heart is as big as the ocean and I'm so glad he was rescued by you and able to be wrapped in your love and kindness.
 
(((((Stef))))) Your heart is broken I'm sure....You saved his life and gave him love, even if it was for such a short time.

Sharing your tears this day......

You have earned your angel wings dear Ahi.....fly free.
 
How very sad for such a sweet kitty. Stef, you were his hero during these few months giving him your all.

I am so very sorry this happened.

((((Stefani)))) My heart breaks for you, but I am so very glad there are people like you out there. Ahi lived and loved a lifetime in those few months because of you, and he will be one of the many who will greet you someday at the Bridge...

Godspeed, Ahi. You were loved and will be ever missed.
 
(((Stefani))) I am so very sorry. Know that you gave him the gift of peace, not only today, but for the last four months. Today was, unfortunately, already written when you gave him a home, but he could not have found a better place in this world to spend his last months.

Fly free Ahi.
 
((((Stefani))))

Nothing hurt so much as taking Ahi off the list of Cats in Need-sponsored diabetic kitties looking for furever homes. Ahi found his with you.

My tears fall with yours. Fly free Ahi; tonight you are the brightest star in the sky. wings_cat
 
I am so sorry to see this, Stef. Big, gentle, loving hearts seem to be the ones that get broken so often - you gave Ahi such a wonderful life with you and with your love.

Sometimes it seems there's more sadness than joy -

Sending many comforting prayers.

so very sad to read this .....

((((( Stefani ))))))

he was so very lucky to have you give him so much love. I'm sorry that means you have to hurt so much now.

Safe Journey Ahi .

take care Stefani.
 
I am just so sorry. Thank you for giving him a home, happiness and love for these past four months. wings_cat
 
I am so sorry for your loss of Ahi. I have been following his story and tears filled
my eyes when I saw the candle in the post.
Fly free sweet Ahi.
 
(((Stef))) I am so very sorry. The love and warmth that you gave to Ahi will guide him quickly to the Bridge and because of you he had such a wonderful few months. I hope that through the pain the warmth that he is shining down upon you can be felt.
 
Stephani,

I am so sorry for your loss. It is amazing how quickly these little furballs crawl into your heart. (((Stephani)).

Fly free Ahi and look for Benji and Magic at the bridge.

I am also SO sorry to hear this. My heart is also with Stefani and Ahi. As you said, she gave Ahi four wonderful months he would not have otherwise had. That is a very valuable gift. I pray God brings her comfort and peace.
 
I'm so sorry to hear this sad news. Ahi was blessed to have found you to care for him and do what is right by him. Thank you for all you did.
 
I'm so sorry to hear about this Stefani. Bless you for taking him in. He knew you loved him.

In the video, he is so cute! And he looks a lot like my little Tida that just passed. Maybe they are playing together right now.
 
(((Stefani)))

I am so very, very, sorry Stefani! You gave Ahi a loving home for 4 months and were there when he needed you the most and I know that Ahi loves you deeply for that. Bless you for loving so deeply and completely and for taking Ahi's pain on as your own.

I'm wrapping you in lots of hugs, love and prayers.
 
This is so sad (((Stef)))) I am so sorry. That pussycat knew real love thanks to you, unconditional and without boundaries, including being brave enough to release him when his body had had enough.

Fly free Ahi.
