Syber Memorial

You have two ways you can go through life...you can go through as solitaire as possible, making as little friends as possible and living life without fear of loosing the friends you don't have, OR you can go through life and make as SO many friends, live it up and have great heartache when they are gone.

I relate the above to our animals. As you know, we have ALOT of animals. I have ALWAYS been an animal lover and was lucky enough to fall in love with another animals lover as well as find a roommate who loves animals too.

Last night I was preparing to go over to my friend Christine's new place, to help her clean before she moves in, when I heard a meow. This meow was not a normal meow, so I went to investigate. I found Syber Kitty pulling himself around by his front legs; his back legs were dragging behind him.

We immediately took him to the emergency vet where we discovered he had a heart arrhythmia and a blood clot had formed in his back leg area. There was nothing they could do, as the blood clots would keep forming and most likely within days, no longer than a week, one would hit his heart, lung or brain. So we had to let Syber go last night.

Here is to my little brave buddy who made it a little over a year. We miss you!!!

He is SO hanging out with Mom, Dr. Binx and Mattaoe right now. Chasing strippers and drinking beer or something.

I am happy I was able to be there for ya'll. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you Krystal or Bobby. Keep your head up and don't forget to smile :)

I am a big mess of tears right now. I am so so sorry Jess. These things are never easy and I know you did what was best for him.

Jess said...

Kat - we shall have big puffy eyes together then! My boss has refused to come back in my office since this morning! I think I scared him away with the massive amount of snot/mascara barrage I had on my face! I know things will get better...the first few days are hard and then it gets ok.

Where is my effin comment I left yesterday? I seriously hate Blogger sometimes.

It went something like this:

So sorry to hear of your loss. Think of all the catnip, mice and feather chasey thingies in heaven. Party on Syber Kitty!

Mama Dawg said...

Oh, shit. I'm crying. Literally crying at my desk. My J.D. is gonna eventually die from this as well. Right now, he's fine. But I know that sometime in the next year or so, he'll leave me. And I don't know if I can handle that.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

Jess said...

MD - it is totally heartbreaking at the time, but just cry, let it out, get a beer (or wine) and give it about two days and you start feeling better...especially when you think about the prospect of getting the chance to save another kitten in the future. We thank Syber for living his life with us and also for making room for another baby we can love.
