Thanks for the Cat

How it started…

May 11, 2012

Now here we are ten years later.

So You want him back. Swollen lymph nodes, distended stomach, and two different kinds of cancer. Liver and colon.

Really. You had to do all that to this little guy? He gets it. You can tell from his demeanor he’s wondering why he came home. Paid for extra pain medicine to give him two more days without hurting. Vet assured the pain would not be that bad over the holiday and you’ll take him for the last time Friday.

He can’t keep food down. But he’s gonna eat whatever he wants. It’s nothing you can’t clean up.

God knows how you are. How else would this have gone down? Four life-threatening problems. Because you would keep fighting if it was only one. The point has to be made to you. And it will be – over the next day and a half.

Doing a full 180 from how wonderful last Thanksgiving was but at the very least your thoughts will be elsewhere.

Whatever he was sent to be for you, he’s done his job and it’s time for Home. You’ve known since the minute you met him that he was more than he seemed.

And you have some time to say goodbye. He’s going to be sleepy, but not in pain. Blessings continue always.

Be grateful. Time’s a wasting.🙂
