Good Bye Bue-bue, I Love You So Much, My Last Words To One Of My Best Friends Options

[Bue's Mommy]

Bue was the best kitty cat, he was 14yrs. Bue-Bue was a Maine Coon who I had adopted as a 8 week old kitten. Bue was very passive, he liked to chill out infront of the window in the morning to get the sun. I have 3 other kitty cats, and they all got along. Now Bue has always thrown up because he had very long fur. One day about 3 months ago I noticed that Bue threw up, but there was no fur in it.

I thought maybe since he is older he needs a more digestable food source. I went and got him the senior formul with yogart in it. He still thre it up, and it made his feces very smelly. I went out, and got him Fancy Feast. By this time though it had been about 2 months. He little by little stopped eating, this happened on the weekend. I thought to myself maybe he is winding down to die.

I went on the internet to see what else could be wrong, I discoverd that he could have bad teeth. I called Bue's vet, and we went in and Bue had 3 teeth removed. He had a blood test, but he did not have the really expensive blood test. I bought him home, and he ate, and ate, and ate. I was so happy, that was 2 weeeks ago. On Fri 08/03/07 When I got up, I noticed that Bue had thrown up on the rug, and there was blood in it. I made an appointment for him to see the vet on Tues. Sat, and Sun he appeared to get weaker, and weaker so on Sun although he was drinking water he was not eating food at all, he would smell it, and turn away.

I force feed him Sun, and we went to the vet Tues, his Dr. did a more indept blood test, and told me my cat had cancer of the bones, I cried in my vets arms, and then took my kitty home for hospice care. About 10pm Tues night Bue cried out because he could no longer walk on his own. I tried holding him, but it made him uncomfortable, so I put him on the floor, and layed down next to him. I think he may have surffered a mini stroke because the only thing moving was his eyes. My other cats gathered around as if they knew what was going on. Bue took some breaths, and cried out a little, and then he threw up blood about 4 times, and then his heart gave out. Bue loved it when I said He's a good boy, and thats what I kept saying to him, as I pet him.


I have had other companion animals pass before, and they all died at home with me. I guess this was painful because I thought he would be ok after his teeth were pulled. Bue lived a really good life with me, and his adopted brother, and sisters. I buried him in the woods out back with my other 3 kitty cats that have passed over the yrs. What I have to remember is the last 3 days of his life, he was not the real Bue-Bue, I'm glad he is free, but I will still miss him so much, I love you Bue-Bue, he's a good boy!

Hi!

What a gorgeous picture!!!!! Your babies are beautiful! I think I recognize Bue, but who is the other one? Is she a calico or a tortie? I can easily see she is a beauty!!!!!

Hugs Kimm, how are you? I have not been on the computer for a few weeks, sorry I'm just getting back to you now. The tortie is Zena, and the grey kitty is Puddin.
Puddin is the only cat in my house that I did not adopt as a kitten.

I came home from the gym , and she was next to my car. I asked her if she wanted to come in , and meet the rest of the family, and she has been here ever since.

Funny thing is my cat Twubby died within 3 days of her arrival, it's almost as if he let go because he knew I would be ok. He was diabetic, I also adopted him when he was full grown.

When I took Puddin in to see my vet, he said she was at least 1 yrs old, she is a grey tiger he said.

You're right about Zena, I was just overly sensative about the things she was doing. She is ok. I have an area rug that in my bathroom that Bue would lay on when I rubbed both sides of his belly. He would just flop down, and give me his belly. Zena never layed on this rug before, but now she does the same thing as he did, weird huh?

What have you been up to?
