April 27,2007~
Tim had a good three weeks with no problems and was a happy cat until yesterday
April 26, 2007, and was very very sick. His body was limp and listless
and he looked terrible this morning with no energy. He is in with the vet
and they have been running tests on him. We were informed that maybe his
kidneys are shutting down. Not good news for us. I was hoping for some
better news for Tim. I'm not ready to let go of him at this time. My poor
boy.
His
brother, Andy is here beside me snuggling and rubbing my arm to try and
make me feel better. What a day!
Timothy
has passed today and we miss him so very much. He was a very special cat
and our first baby. We went to his exam room and the vet brought him in
and lay
him
down and we spoke about Tim's tests and that his kidneys were shutting
down. He looked like he was ready to leave us and didn't respond to us
when we talked to him. We knew that it was time to put him down so he wouldn't
suffer anymore. He looked worse than when I took him into the animal hospital
this morning. It just wasn't our Tim, and he was dying. Our poor boy. I
know he is free from suffering and in a better place and playing with the
other kitties that has passed on. It is very hard to lose this kitty as
he was the King of our cat family.We would call Tim, "Mr. Majestic," because
he was so poised in appearance, such an honarable kitty, like "Royalty,
when he would sit so straight or lay as he rested or napped. He was so
beautiful too.So good-natured. sweet tempered, gentle as a lamb.
He
was such a good cat and was very well liked at his vet clinic. He stole
the show!
We
helped him to go to his place with God. The vet injected the injection
that was to take him to a better place and it was very very hard to watch
him pass into Eternal Life.
Bless
you dear Timothy. We will miss you so much and your sweet meow when you
would want your food and your Pet fountain filled with the water that you
craved. Thank you sweet Timmy for coming into our lives as you were the
most wonderful cat in the world!! We will never forget you ever!

Here is a nice poem for you to keep, Mom and Dad.
I know that you will like it. It is very special for you
and me.
Poem For Cats
And God asked the feline spirit
Are you ready to come home?
Oh, yes, quite so, replied the precious soul
And, as a cat, you know I am most able
To decide anything for myself.
Are you coming then? asked God.
Soon, replied the whiskered angel
But I must come slowly
For my human friends are troubled
For you see, they need me, quite certainly.
But don't they understand? asked God
That you'll never leave them?
That your souls are intertwined. For all eternity?
That nothing is created or destroyed?
It just is .... forever and ever and ever.
Eventually they will understand,
Replied the glorious cat
For I will whisper into their hearts
That I am always with them
I just am .... forever and ever and ever.

There
are lots of places for us to play
and
many meadows to run through.
C'mon!
Let's hurry!
We
can play ball too! Just like
we
did before!
"Peek-a-boo!"
"Nite Nite!"
