I got Shoei as a babe in Feb of 1994 when I was getting ready to 21 years old. She shared a lot with me growing up in my parents house, moving in with my now husband, having my first child. She used to lay on my pregnant belly for attention or maybe she liked feeling the baby too. She was a fighter, even after being attacked by a german shepard (punctured lung and cracked rib) the dr. said she wouldn't make it through the night but she did, to return to a full recovery. Through her life I can't tell you how many times they told me she would die soon because of her enlarged heart. Years and years later she did. But her heart finally gave out, thankfully, because kidney failure from years of medication were taking her so I stopped her heart med that was saving her to keep her from the inevitible. She had already stopped eating and I didn't want to prolong her pain so she went peacefully without any awful symtoms. I miss her terribly. :shy:

That's so sad. Even when you know you're doing the right thing it hurts like h--- to let go. I'm so sorry for your loss.

My heart goes out to you. please except my sincere condolences.
I lost my Missy almost two years ago in November. I still miss her and think of her everyday.
She lives within my heart forever.
Gone but NEVER forgotten

I'm so sorry for the loss of your little girl. We know how precious these babies become to us. You did the kind thing and what had to be the hardest for you. You are in my prayers and thoughts.

I am so very sorry for your loss. In two weeks, it will be nine years (I can't believe it) that I had to let my first Cairn, Ginger, to the Rainbow Bridge. I know it was the best thing for her but it was one of the worst moments of my life.
