Lost My Baby Options

[Lynn26]

I had to put my little girl down on 3/15/11. Her name is Jasmine. She was my first cat, I always had dogs. I found her almost 12 years ago working at a car lot. She ran in fear under a cola machine. She was malnurished and had pneumonia. I took her in and nursed her to good health. Well she got along with the dog and in time won the heart of my dad who was never a cat person before. Well one day she just stopped eating!!! So the next day we took her to the vet. She had lost weight quick and xrays reveled she had a large mass and she also developed a heart murmur. Other signs told the Dr that my baby had cancer and was in pain. So I did what I thought best (and so did the vet) I put my little one down. It was just so sudden! I was expecting her to have a longer life. Just days before not eating she was running & playing!! Oh how I am crying. I feel such sadness like my heart has been broken. How long will this last??? I have lost other pets and mourned but this is bad this time. I think because it was so sudden.

Dear Lynn,

Please accept my sincere condolences on the loss of your precious Jasmine. I'm so very sorry that your heart feels broken.

I understand the sudden shock of your loss as I had that with my beautiful Victoria. Even though my girl had cushings disease, she stopped eating and drinking suddenly, and the following day she was euthanized. Please know that I share your pain.

Hope you will continue to let us know how you are doing whenever you are able to. And when you are ready, maybe you can share a pic of Jasmine.
With peace and healing thoughts,
Juturna
