Our precious Bootz flew away to Cat Heaven yesterday morning. She seemed to be under the weather so I took her to the vet. X-rays revealed our darling girl had an enlarged heart and a collapsed lung--with only hours left to live. The Vet said she either contracted a virus, or cancer which had been coming on for some time. Thankfully, up until yesterday morning, Bootz had no symptoms of pain or discomfort, whatsoever.
This morning in the twilight of sleep, I felt her snuggled against my side--I felt the warmth and the weight of her body there. But as I awoke, I realized once again, our small companion has gone. Our hearts are broken, but how grateful we are to have known her these six months.

Beth I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Bootz! You are in my thoughts and prayers.I know it will take some time. When we lost Carly the dog my husband and I just kinda sat on the sofa for three days. we ate chicken soup and consoled each other. It's a big loss for you I know!
Beth,
I am so sorry and I am crying once again from the loss of "Bootz".
It happened so fast yes, the pains of her missing and void of her not being next to you are tremendous and I am sooooooooooo sorry.
I feel your pain.
Please draw a picture of her so we can see her as you have?
We love you Beth.♥
Oh Beth ... I am so very, very sorry for your loss. My heart aches for you ... Our furry companions are little life-lines, are they not? For our lives are richly blessed by each moment we are touched by their little souls. You rest deeply in my thoughts and prayers ... may you find a measure of comfort in knowing so many care for you and that memories of Boots will forever remain in your heart ...
How sad. It's so hard to lose a pet.
Oh Sissie ... We have been thinking of you and praying for you. I know how much your darling Bootz meant to you, and how you and hubby are grieving right now. Love and Peace, sissie dear.
:(
When the grieving will be over, maybe the best thing would be a new cat, to fill the void.
I'm so sorry!
thinking of you.
hugs

I am sorry to hear about your cat. I hope you can find a new one you like as much.
I was thinking about posting a lady and cat for PFF but already posted something else last night before I saw your post today.
I am so sorry for your broken heart. I have lost many myself, and it never gets any easier to say goodbye. I am so glad she did not have a long suffering and that Bootz had many good days with you. I know 6 months isn't a long time, but she was so blessed to have spent them with you and being loved beyond measure. She will be there waiting for you.
You're in my prayers,
Hugs- Tete
her brief time with you is still a blessing. she has gone to the rainbow bridge.
sorry for your loss.

How sad and I know you are missing pretty Bootz. We have lost our 2 darling cats recently so I can really sympathize with you.
I know your pain all too well. I'm so sorry about your kitty.
I'm so sorry to read about Bootz. Our furbabies are such an important part of our lives. She was lucky to have you and you her. Wishing you well.
