Rosy was doing better, I thought, even taking food from a syringe and using the litter box to pee. So I left her at 1:00 p.m. today, to go get some things. I came home and found her laid out dead, in the litter box. She'd been attempting to poop, as there were some hard poops in there and some on her butt. It was likely too much for her heart.
My dear little girl, rest in peace. I'm so sorry you did not have a good start to life. She had fun here, with her family, in the year and two months she shared with me and mine.
Goodbye sweet Rosy.
Some things cannot be fixed or healed. Some things just are the way they are. Life isn't fair by anyone's standards of fair. Tonight is for me to snuggle up close to the living and love them. The dead are gone but oh how the living give me comfort and joy. Memories are alive also. Nobody can tell me they're not.
How long must we live to live a full life? Can a full life be lived in just one day? For whom does the Bell Toll? Today it tolls for Rosy.
I am a Cat Woman. My self-appointed mission in life is to save the feline world! To accomplish this mission, I get cats fixed. Perhaps my mission might be slightly delusional. This blog is a mishmash of wishful thinking, rants, experiences as I remember them and of course, cat stories and cat photos. I have a nonprofit now, to help keep the cats here cared for and to fix community cats. Happy Cat Club formed in 2015. Currently, we are on a mission to fix 10,000 cats.
