His name was Eggs, more often known as Eggo,named by me in the car on the way home from the egg ranch where we gothim. He always had the loudest purr. We used to joke that he ate aBoeing 747 when he was a kitten. I have pictures of me when I wasaround four, sitting with him in front of the fireplace. I had a biggrin on my face. He, in the awkward position cats find themselves inwhen being held by a little kid, was not grinning.

We were friends from the instant we saw each other. He was sitting on astack of egg cartons, purring. Back then, though, it only sounded likea Cessna. Then, a few months ago, we found out he had cancer. He wasnever himself again, and last week, he just went downhill. We finallydecided to give him his wings on Monday. It was one of the hardestthings I've ever done. Only now can I think of him without breakingdown and crying.

Rest in peace, my sweet boy. Until we meet again.:rose::rainbow:

 
Oh...my heart aches for you...that's such a hard decision to make.

Your Eggs sounds like such a special boy...

Oh, sweet Eggo boy...have a special fun time crossing the RainbowBridge. Give everyone there kisses from us, and have LOADS offun playing with everyone! You will be sorely missed, SweetPurrboy...

:rose::rainbow:

And this is for you, Greta...let us know any way we can help...

Oh no. I had to give a cat his wings too when his lungs collapsed suddenly a few years ago.

I don't know that I've ever really recovered from that (as faras catsgo). I love Ditsy Mitzi but she'll never be my Michael-boy...

My heart goes out to you.

I'm so so sorry to hear about yourloss. They say, losing a pet is harder then losing a familymember at times because with your pet all you know is Love.No other feelings towards eachother. My thoughts and prayersare with you.

Rest In Peace, Eggs

I'm so sorry. We put our cat down afew years ago. He was 18 and he broke his hip. Thevet said the only thing they could do would be to put him in a fullbody cast. We didn't want to do that, so we had to have himput to sleep.

:(
 
I'm so sorry to read this. I can't imagine how sad you are feeling right now.

I, like many others, can relate to this huge loss you are feeling.

If you ever need a chat then my PM box is open.

Take care of yourself.

Sweet Dreams Eggs, RIP.

Rest in Peace Eggs, you were loved so much during your time on the earth.:kiss:

Hugs to you Greta:hug:, we are here for you.:group:
 
Thanks everyone, I really appreciate all you guys, you're like family to me.


I finally got my photobucket to cooperate a little, so here's a picture of him.

I'm so sorry Greta.

It's hard to put a loved one down, but if it stops the suffering then it's the right choice.

I'm sure Eggo will be waiting for you at the Rainbow Bridge.

What a beautiful cat your Eggo was! I'm so sorrythat you lost him, Greta. I've been through that a couple of times with'heart' cats too, and each time it was so terribly hard to go through,like a piece of my heart went with them.

My prayers go out to you, along with cyber-hugs of understanding the pain...

:hug1

May you be comforted in knowing that your kitty is with you in spirit, always.
