Roxy August 11, 2006 - April 9, 2014
My beautiful, sassy little girl passed on this morning. She was struggling with pain and breathing this morning, so I called the vet and told him I was bringing her in before they opened the clinic. She took her last breath in the carrier just seconds before the vet pulled up beside us. She had fluid on her lungs. He thinks there's a tumour in there somewhere. I told him to do an autopsy. I want to know why my gorgeous cat is gone at 7 years of age.
I am completely lost. I try not to play favourites with my cats, but Roxy was always something special. I gave her a birthday party when she turned 6 months old, complete with party hats for her and her late big brother Desi. Some of you might remember the post about that. I'd never known a cat like her. Friendly, sociable, goofy, very much a diva. I took her to the nursing home where I work and she loved to flop down on the floor and insist complete strangers rub her belly. We'd walk around outside with her on a leash and she did the same thing to whoever walked by. If someone spoke to us she figured they were there to see her.
I miss her so much.
