Thank you so much. I knew that fellow cat or animal lovers would understand. It's definitely hard to think of this cat, who usually sleeps with her stuffed animals (her head's on her beloved platypus in the photo) has been alone in a cage in a strange place for 2 nights. I'll update when we have some more news which will hopefully be tomorrow -- and hopefully good! Again, thank you.

I have two fur babies myself, so totally understand. Prayers being sent.

Misha's MRI yesterday morning showed a tumor taking up 80% of a vertebrae on her cervical spine and her condition had deteriorated over the last two days. She was put to sleep in the afternoon in the presence of her loving parents, my sister and her boyfriend. I spoke to Misha by phone before she was put down and although she couldn't really move her head, her ears perked up and her eyes widened.

Thanks again for understanding how an animal can become part of the family and mean so much.

Beary,

I am so sorry about Misha. I understand your feelings of loss and sadness. We all know that she is not suffering anymore and in a better place but it doesn't help the sadness right now.

I think of my dog and cat as my babies and talk to them constantly. They are always with me and keep me from getting lonely. They are always in the same room with me even now as I am in the den on the computer. The have breakfast and lunch with me and sleep with me.

I have had to make the decision twice in the past to put 2 of my babies to sleep and it is horrible. My Sheltie was 15 years old and my cat was 20 years old but it was still so hard that I cried for days.

I wish I could say something to make you feel better but it just takes time. Our pets are part of our family and are truly missed when we lose them.

Hugs,
Becky

My condolences on Misha's passing.
