I had to make the tough decision........to let Blue Angel go. Her labs showed no improvement and her neurological status remained unchanged. She progressed to where she was unable to get herself out of the litter box. I spent some time with Blue Angel at the vet's office. Her vet so very generously came in to complete Blue Angel's passing. Blue Angel was in her bed which is a 1/2 carrier draped with comfy blankets. Dr. Kathy and I sat on the floor and visited with Blue Angel. I shared memories from birth and today. I was with Blue Angel at her birth and cut her cord and placed her to her mother. Blue Angel slipped away very peacefully. Afterward, I brought her home for her littermate Sami to say, Goodbye. Sami sniffed her ear, licked and nipped at her other ear. He sat by her for a few minutes. I gave Blue Angel a bath and dried her fur. She was always a soft beautiful kitty, but illness had taken it's tow on her fur. I made an impression for a pawprint. After her bath, I placed her in a coffin like box Dr. Kathy gave. I lined it with silk linen, place Blue Angel inside. I put her laser light, her favorite catnip mouse stocking, a picture of her with her littermates Sami and Shadow, a family portrait, and a peacock feather. I sprinkled some dried rose petals from her mother's memorial flowers with her. I folded the silk lines gently over her body. On top of the blanket I placed a golden butterfly. I took her back to the vet's office. Dr. Kathy's husband will complete her cremation. We'll make arrangements for a witnessed cremation. I'll be with her until her little body becomes cremains and back in my care. My little sweetheart has fluttered away. My heart is broken this night of March 27, 2010. It is so terrible to lose a real life Angel even if that angel is a Blue Angel. I know Blue Angel was only here for a short period of time. We stilled learned a lot and I'll never be afraid of having a diabetic kitty again. Thanks!!!!

Sadly Sunshine and My little Blue Angel.

Blue Angel......what a lovely name.....and you did right by her. My deepest sympathy on her loss and even knowing it is the right decision it is never easy to let go. What a loving gift you gave her, including her bath and satin and toys and I am so very thankful you brought her home so Sami could see her and say goodbye. They understand and now Sami knows there is no need to cry and search for her. I wish more people would think to do this wings_cat

What a beautiful, sweet and lovely send-off you gave her. It is so lovely and loving, just as she was. I am sure she is the loveliest angel in heaven now. May God bring you comfort and peace.
 
So sorry for your loss wings_cat You're such a wonderful mommy. I'm still wiping the tears from my face. Sending you love and healing thoughts to help the sadness you feel, but I know that you know.. she's in a better place now.
 
Thank you so very much for your kind words of support. I am totally impressed with your kindness and willingness to carry the pain of my loss of Blue Angel. I don't think I have experienced anything this painful in a long time. I've have lost 4 Himmies in the last 4 years, I would think it would get easier but it does not. I know all the feelings, upset stomach aching moments, and spaced out times are normal but I hate the intial steps of grief. I just have to keep telling my self grief is the price we pay for having loved and been loved. Sami is struggling and becomes easily stressed if he sees me upset. I'm trying to balance the natural for me and trying to avoid upsetting him. I can't imagine losing 5 feline family members and not being able to "talk" about it. Again, thanks for your very kind words of supports during this very sad time in my life.

Lorraine, Blue Angel and Sami.
 
I'm so very sorry for your loss of your sweet and precious Blue Angel. The love you shared is so obvious.

Blue Angel is now healthy and free at the Bridge, with her beautiful fur and her new wings.

Until you meet again . . .

Fly free, sweet, precious, and beautiful Blue Angel.
