After 4 years of Frisky fighting diabetes I had to have her put to sleep this morning. She had developed breast cancer over the last few month and it spread very quick. On Monday she started showing sign of some pain. Yesterday she stopped eating and drinking, and this morning she tried to drink some water but could not hold it down. I got her to the vet this morning but there was nothing more they could do for her. The cancer was too great. :cry: I knew this day was coming at some point but it is still the hardest thing I have ever had to do.

All though I don't post here often. I thank everyone on this board for all the helpful links and all the kindness you show here. When I was told that Frisky had diabetes I had no clue what to do, But I found this board and got a crash course in how to handle it. The vet was so impressed with how much I had learned in such a short time that she now send people to the board to help them. She was also a big fan of me home testing.

I'm sorry if this was a little winded but it has help me deal with loosing a big part of my life. Frisky was 15 years old and had a good life. :cry:
 
I'm so sorry.
It's so hard when it's time..... Fly Free Frisky.

Requiem aeternum, Frisky.

Breast cancer in a cat can be pretty awful. My friend had one he couldn't afford to spay for several years and late/no spay increases the risk. She was a sweetheart, too.
 
I'm so sorry. I feel your pain... it really is the hardest thing we ever have to do.
Hold on to your happy memories.
Wishing you peace.

I had to let my little girl, Holli, go when she had the cancer. The morning of, she was rolling around in a sunbeam. It's never easy, but now Frisky is in a better place. She will joing the Celestial Chorus and sing to you when the moon is full. Comfort vines to you and your family.
 
Thanks Everyone. I have had 3 very hard moments. At the vets office then at 5:00pm eastern time when it would have been time to feed her and to give her the insulin shot. Now coming home from a friends house and not seeing her laying in her favorite chair. Reading the kind words has helped me so I thank you all.
 
I am very sorry to hear of your loss.

May your spirits be lifted by knowing that Frisky is now playing with all the other "Sugar Kitties" at the Rainbow Bridge.

I am doing a little better. I just got home from work and that was very hard. The last 10 years I would get home, change cloths, she would jump up in her chair and I would pet her till she jumped down ready to eat. Then the last 4 years we added in the insulin to that. Coming home today and not having that was hard. I think I will start to feel a little better when the vet calls me to come and pick up her ashes. I did not think to ask how long it would be.

I just want to say Thank You again to everyone for their kind words it has helped me a great deal.
 
Frisky will always be in your heart. That's a beautiful photo of her.

It is so hard when we lose them, but that's because the years we get to share with them are so full of love. We are blessed that we get to share their lives and receive their love and companionship. Some people never know love like that. For all the pain we feel when we are parted from our little ones, we are so lucky to have been their humans.

Thanks. That photo was taken in February of 2013. It was one of the first pictures I took with my dslr camera. I have it printed on 8.5x11 photo paper and hanging on the wall where her water fountain is. It is what helps come to terms with her passing.
 
I am so very sorry to hear of your loss. :cry: I looked at your picture, it reminded me how my sugarbaby looked not too long ago..very happy and content. I know no words can heal that place in your heart where Frisky resides. Just know she is in a better place, no more pokes, pain, just blue skies, vast fields of green, and all the birds she can chase. You will be in my heart and prayers. Stay strong, and know you did the right thing.
 
what a lovely pic. I know what you mean about expecting to see them. I lost my 3 civie girls within a year. My oldest one was nearly 19 and practically lived in my bedroom. If I go upstairs I find myself going in to talk to her. Hope things are getting easier, it takes time to get used to it (I never say get over because I don't think you truly get over any loss.) thinking of you. x
