My heart goes out to you.  :'(  Sammi-Jo is now in peace.

I had Gizmo cremated and scattered her ashes around her favourite places in the garden.  Was very emotional doing it.  Going to get a memorial stone from Talking Stones to go in what I call the cats garden.  I've got a couple already for previous cats.

Thanks Julz, Sammi has been cremated as well

His name is Sunshine (Sunny for short) and he's 7 weeks old.


Sunshine is now 1 year old (his birthday was a couple of weeks ago). He pretty much now has full run of the house as he's a good flyer and he knows it too lol.

RIP Max our Alsaskan Malamute :'( :'( :'(

Early this morning at around 2.30am we had to say goodbye to our beautiful "big baby girl" Max

I got off the plane last night at 11.30 and was greeted with the news that Max had taken sick suddenly (she had gone or had started to go in her back legs)

She had been asked to hold on until I got home so that we could all be together one last time. As always she did what was asked of her.

We rushed her to the hospital and made what most say is "the dreaded decision" but was actually us keeping the promise we had made to her and that was when she'd had enough we'd let her go. She told us last night she'd had enough so we kept our promise to her

She passed away peacefully around 2.30 with her devastated Dad & Mum sitting on the floor with her holding & hugging her

RIP Max - we love you always "big baby girl"  :'( :'(

Commiserations!
Always makes me sad reading these.
Found out start of this year Gordon 'Our cat' Kidneys starting to go and it is really hard knowing this is coming up.
He is happy and OK, eating well at the moment so will just enjoy his catness he has left with us.
Now I'm  :'(

 :(
ditto  :'(

As I said in my PM you take care WP. Our pets are a massive part of our respective families and when we lose them it is gut-wrenching.

RIP Max.

Very sad. It's the worst thing about pets :(

My news is unique and a happier story.

I have two inside pets, a Maltese named Maddie and a racing greyhound named Penny (racing name Magic Castle).

The racing greyhound happened to win Saturday night at traralgon which was great. She knows when she wins and is still strutting around like she is the greatest thing on four legs!!!

Sorry WP, it's a terrible thing to have to part with a being that gave you lots of love and loyalty.
Not an easy thing to do to put your pets down, but really, there are limits and what you did was the right thing.
Had to make the same hard decision last year with my 15 year old doggie
Take care of yourself.

Have you ever come up against Mighty Mu?
And you may not think I care for you

Mighty Mu was a quality dog. He finished racing in 2010 however. Good chance I met him once or twice with a short course sprinter called Lucky Moment.
