Title: Blitz 2/6/06-7/18/08 Post by: Marybelle on July 18, 2008, 11:20:10 AM She almost made it to 2.5. But, in the end, she decided to join her sister. She had a couple of slow-growing mammary tumors, and I guess they took more out of her than I thought. Last night, I noticed she didn't come out when we put the food in her cage. She had been fine and energetic the night before. Then, I saw her curled up in the corner. She was still breathing, but cool to the touch, and not interested in food. I got her to take a little bit of water from a syringe, but she didn't want anything else. I tucked her into the hospital cage with some food and warm fleece, and covered it to keep her safe from drafts, but I told her that it was okay to go, if she needed to, and that her sister would be waiting for her. I found her this morning. It looks like she passed in her sleep, which is a good way to go.
Farewell my Blitzy-girl. Join your sister and run free. We'll miss you terribly, but I'm so glad you're not in pain, and that you didn't suffer. :'( (http://www.goosemoose.com/coppermine/albums/userpics/10024/Blitz2.JPG) Title: Re: Blitz 2/6/06-7/18/08 Post by: Nokithis on July 18, 2008, 11:29:01 AM oh marybelle, if there was a chosen way to go then that would be it. blitz and her sister are running amok at the bridge with all of the ones that were waiting for them! i hope your heart heals soon.
