I'll add more to this thread or over in grief support in time. The wound is still very fresh. Moey's finally free of this wretched disease that took him from me, little by little. My heart is shattered. Thank you to all the kind people on the board.
I'm so very sorry to see this post I know you've been agonizing over this for quite some time. I'm sending you a huge virtual hug to help you during this time. Just know that he's in no pain now...resting with the other GA's...
I am so very sorry to read this, breaks my heart, he is at peace now, chasing butterflies and playing the other kitties
Briere, I'm so so sad for you!! This is so painfull ! Just think that little Moey had a wonderful mom; you gave him the best life be could have had! Now he's gonna be the one caring for you! Fly free sweetie, no more pain no more poking! Keep an eye on your mom!!!
Briere, my heart aches for you and your loss of Moey. May the happy memories of Moey keep you company through this time of sadness. I'm so very sorry. I will light a candle for Moey and his journey , fly free sweet boy
Briere, I am so sorry it was Moey's time to earn his wings. I know it's been a hard year for you. I hope you have good memories of Moey when he was younger and that he's back whole in his body, playing, and waiting for you at the Bridge.
I'm so sorry for your loss. It breaks my heart and I cry each time I read of another sugar cat leaving us. He will always be with you in your heart.
This hurts. "Our" beloved Moey is at peace, just as you say. I know he had a long blessed life with you, and that YOU are the one hurting so much, not him. He has a few other beautiful GAs from here on the board, to play with over the bridge, including one of his own housemates. I hope you fully understand so many of us relate and are crying and hurting right along with you. It hurts even more that you had another recent loss. Give your other babies extra love, and I hope to see you back soon when it doesn't feel so crushing . . . and maybe telling some good stories about ol' fur pants So much love to you. You are a wonderful fur mom, and woman, and don't ever forget it
Keeping you in my thoughts...may these words comfort you as you carry on without him by your side but always in your heart...
I am so very sorry. This "wretched disease" has the unexpected effect of bringing us even closer to our kitties and forging an even stronger bond. Moey will always have an honored place in your heart. Fly free Moey and land softly.
Siiigh My sincere condolences. I take every passing here personally not in deed but in heart. Fly forever free Moey, when you are ready, land in mamas heart and help it heal. I am so very sorry. jeanne
Hugs of comfort and peace to you (((Briere))). I'm so very sorry you lost your little Moey. RIP sweet little kitty.
My condolences for your loss. You went above and beyond with both terrible diseases. Look after yourself in the coming days.
I'm very sorry for your loss. Moey was very fortunate to have such a loving mom. Please try to do something nice for yourself.
Briere So sorry it was time for Moey to cross the Bridge. Our sugar kitties hold a very special place in our hearts. Fly free sweet Moey and land safely at the bridge
Dear Briere, Your handsome kitty is "in good paws" with all of our GAs at the Bridge. We are very sorry for your loss, but be comforted in the knowledge that you did everything you could to enrich Moey's life. Fly free, sweet Moey! You are much loved. In deepest sympathy, Ella & Edward, Rusty (GA) and Stu (GA)
I am so very sorry to hear of Moey's passing. Our fur babies sure leave a gaping hole in our hearts when they leave us. May the wonderful memories you've had fill that hole in the days, weeks, and years to come. Fly free Moey.
So sorry to hear it was Moey's time to leave you Briere. No matter how long we have them, it's never long enough. The relationship we build with our sugarcats is so very special and unique but it just means it hurts more when they leave us. Fly free sweet Moey and land softly. Send your mama a sign that you're happy, healthy and waiting for the day when you'll both be together again...but this time forever.
So very sad to read this news. These damn little furballs just weasel their way into our hearts and then go and break us when they leave us. Like Chris said, it's never long enough and it doesn't matter how much we try and prepare for the dreadful day, we still are really not all that well prepared.
I just wanted to thank everyone for your kind words and condolences. Moey was one of a kind. He was my guardian kitty. He use to protect me from my own droolers LOL! Moey taught me how to speak catinese. I learned so much about cat language from him. He was the first to show me how to speak without making a sound....just with my eyes. He showed me the subtle body language of the cat world. Through Moey's teachings, I learned how to better communicate with the kitties in the veterinary setting. I was called the cat whisperer at the spay/neuter clinic, where I use to work. Moey aided me in making those kitties' Vet. experience more pleasant. Moey taught me A LOT about feline diabetes. More than I EVER wanted to know. If it wasn't for Moey(and Ittle) I would have never found this wonderful group of people called the FDMB. My ole' fur pants was the epitome of what true cat greatness is suppose to be like! He never complained, even in his final moments. Before I found the FDMB, I use to get blood samples from his back leg, as they do in Vet. clinics. I wasn't testing frequently prior to the FDMD and Lantus. We would curve once a month in those days(he was on NPH for a LONG time). Nonetheless, I used his back leg for blood samples on curve day. Imagine what this poor cat went through. Moey was thrilled that we found the FDMB.....finally blood samples from the back leg were banished and ear pokes ensued. Moey was the most stoic cat I ever had the pleasure to be around. He never grumbled. He was the most compliant kitty. He always jumped on the bed when he heard the snap of the glucose strip lid. He knew it was testing time. He didn't complain during his fluid administration over the past month or so. He would go to the table for fluid administration. I think he knew it was helping him. Moey always had a purr and a head butt for me at the end of his treatments. He NEVER complained. When Moey was made, the mold was broken. There will never be another like him. He went through soooo much in his short life of almost 17yrs. From ureteral obstruction resulting in acute renal failure to diabetes and etc. He always came out of the other side of the tunnel with a purr in his heart and a head butt in his thoughts. I'm lost without the ole' fur pants. I have no schedule to keep anymore. I think he did show me a sign that he's happy and healthy now. Yesterday, on our way back from town, the DH and I saw a rainbow. As we got closer to home we realized the rainbow was almost directly over our house. I don't look too much into stuff like this but, I believe in my heart he was telling me he's ok. He has plenty of company and many new friends from the FDMB GAs. Thanks again to everyone for your help in our FD journey. Mandy Moey, even though my heart breaks and the tears overflow for every little reminder of you, it was worth it. You taught me more about myself and life than any before you. I will never forget you my ole' fur pants! I love you Mr. Moe!
Briere, I am so very sorry to be reading that your Baby was take. From you. Words can’t express the sorrow that we feel when this happens , but the heart knows. Wishing you peace.
