Lightning-Strike Pet Loss Support Forum _ Death and Dying Pet Support _ Kahlua & Squirrels

Posted by: 1991Baby May 22 2008, 12:36 PM

After 17+ years of wonderful companionship and unconditional love my beloved Kahlua has moved on. Last night her little body began to dramatically give in to her years and this morning I took her in to help her go peacefully.

You read me write about her and the special little creature she was. I already miss her dearly, but these past months and past few weeks have been especially difficult on her and me. I know she's off chasing squirrels now and in a better place than her body would let her be.

I'll be going camping in the mountains in a few weeks and will spread her ashes in some of our favorite settings we visited.

Thank you all for being an ear through this. She had a wonderful life and loved to share it with everyone she met. This online community has welcomed her like she would have welcomed everyone in it - probably with a big sloppy kiss before her health started to fail.

I know I have many peaks and valleys ahead in my grief process. Such a special little life I was blessed to be touched by, I wish it could have gone on forever.

I'm glad to hear you were able to have the vet help her to go peacefully. It was so sad to read your last post that it was 3 AM and no vet available to help when you needed him/her. Kahlua is at peace now..no more pain. That's the hardest decision we ever have to make for them but it is one they cannot make for themselves.

Scattering her ashes in favorites places sounds like something she would have liked.

that is beautiful that you will spread her ashes where you both made happy memories. kahlua will be by your side the whole time i am sure. you dont have to go through the peaks and valleys alone. we all know how it feels. my heart is with you.
