Bubba Update :(

[Angela & Blackie & 3 Others]

The vet called about 20 minutes ago. He has a bacterial infection, and cancer. I could use Baytril to clear the infection, but he would be suffering from the cancer. The urinalysis showed 0-5 squamous cells, neoplacia (or something like that). He'll be our 4th casualty this year. We'll be down to 5. I can't allow him to suffer. I just can't. He's still eating, and drinking, and provided me with a solid poo earlier this morning. Right now, he's in a box. His weight is 12.94 lbs., down 0.51 since 10/08 when I last weighed him. I just gave him some kibble, and he ate it all. It was the least I could do for him. I'm now making the tough decision yet again. 4x this year. He's the last of our late Precious' family. He's Precious' grandson, our late Scooter's nephew. Our late Mom's cat.

Oh Angela, I'm so sorry .. 4 babies in one year is too much for anyone .. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers .. ((hugs))

 

[Michelle and Mannie (GA)]

Angela, I am so sorry to read this. Hugs to you all. Keeping you in my thoughts.

 

[Angela & Blackie & 3 Others]

Thank you, ladies. I'm making him as comfortable as possible until we take him in. Right now, he's in a box that he's been frequenting for the past several days. I have an oil filled radiator heater on, which is next to him. He feels cold. This house is cold. I'm feeling cold.

BIG HUGE LOOOOOONG HUG, prayers for all of you,

[Angela & Blackie & 3 Others]

Thank you. These decisions are never easy, but I don't want him to suffer, either, any more than I wanted Shadow or Scooter, or Jr. Mint to suffer.

[Tara & Buster]

So sorry, Angela. Losing 1 is hard - 4 in one year is really hard on the heart. I'm sure Bubba knows you're doing what's best for him. Sending comfort vines to you and your family.

(((((((((Angela))))))))) I'm so sorry to hear that it is time to let Bubba go. You put all your babies first, it is always hard, but 4 in one year!

 

[Amy & Papaya (GA)]

Oh Angela, I'm so sorry you have to go through this again so soon . . . but equally glad that Bubba has someone to care for him who will not let him suffer.

Hugs. :YMHUG:

Angela, I'm so sorry to hear this. 4 in 1 year is horrible. You love your babies so much. Bubba's in good loving hands, and knows that you'll take care of him & not make him suffer. Sorry you have to go through it all again. :YMHUG:

(((Angela))) Sending tons of hugs and calming vines for you. This is such a hard thing that you have to do. So many so close must be breaking your heart. Take strength from the fact you are doing what needs to be done.

(((Angela)))

Being a loving caretaker of an animal has so much joy, but so much sorrow. Losing 4 in one year is totally unfair, but the final gift any of us have to give is a peaceful release.

All of Lantus Land cries with you over the decision you're having to make.
