Hi everyone,

It is with great sadness that I share the news that Bogey got really sick Monday night, developed ketones again, and was put down Tuesday afternoon. Everything was going so well... we thought. I couldn't bear to put him through the emergency procedures again. It had only been two months or so since the last episode, and that was so rough on him. And then with the acromegly dx and the difficulties starting to develop as a result of that, we decided it was the best thing for him.

I will miss him waiting to greet me every time I come home. He used to be waiting on the chair arm right at the front door the moment I walked in. I don't know how he knew it was me, but he always did. Bailey, his little "sister" adored him as well. :) You can see she always had to be right next to him. On the positive side, I'm lucky to have had the pleasure of his company for the time I did. And, I'm glad his suffering is over. :(

I want to thank everyone who was so supportive during our short time here. You're advice helped me to be able to make the last few months of his life so much better. I am eternally grateful for that. Please keep up the good work... it's so important.

Amy

I'm so sorry to hear this. I didn't know you and Bogey, but we are still family here and every loss is shared. It must have been so hard to put Bogey's QOL needs against your own. Fly free Sweet Bogey, watch over your beans and little sister. wings_cat

Please accept my condolences for the loss of little Bogey. He's no longer suffering now, and he's playing in the beautiful meadows with all the others who have gone across. You've made the right decision, as hard as it was to make.
 
*cry* I am so sorry. I wish I could give real hugs instead of just virtual ones. ((((((Amy and Bailey))))) Bogey is pain free and with you in spirit always. I do believe that. If love was enough they would live forever. My thoughts are with you and your Bailey.
 
Amy, I am so sorry for your loss of Bogey. I know it is so hard to make that decision, but also know they lets us know that it is OK when we do. It is the most self-less act I know, and one of great kindness. Fly free Bogey - you will be missed. wings_cat

You made the best decision for Bogey and we know how hard it was. Your Bogey is waiting at the Bridge, being welcomed by all our GAs, and waiting patiently, free of pain, until you meet again. Fly free sweet Bogey on your beautiful new wings and keep watching over your family. You are much loved.

In deepest sympathy,

I'm so sorry you had to let Bogey go. It is such a hard thing to do, a very selfless act, even when you know in your heart that it's time. Bogey is whole again, and the rainbow bridge has one more angel who will never be forgotten.
 
I am so very sorry for your loss. I am sure your Bogey will be waiting for you at the rainbow bridge. It's a sad day.
