Not posted in my LJ for sometime, Today however I use it to mourn the passing of my beloved Sadie. Ive owned her since I was about 6 years old and having no brothers or sisters myself my cat has kinda filled that gap for me. Since we first met her we knew she was the one for us, energetic and friendly, she was the first cat to come up to us and she adorned us with attention and always has since the day we bought her from the catery.
This morning however she passed away after showing no signs of any illness. I went downstairs to the kitchen and she followed me down. Set her some food down and went back into the bedroom, she followed up before collapsing on the floor. Her body not moving and her breathing irratic as she cried out, Me and my Mum called the vets and they said to bring her in the moment they opened which was two hours away from the call... We sat her down on her favourite rug whilst gently petting her, keeping her calm until the time came to take her to the vets, upon which he advised it would be best she be put down, she had liver failure and had a stroke.
Its hard to believe something I was just stroking is gone, a pet I loved dearly and I shall never see her ever again. Her malted fur is still lay where she sat in the last few hours, i'm too emotional to move it just now truth be told... Though i'm happy I got to share the final moments with her, its more than most would ever get i'm just glad I was in to comfort her and not out anywhere.
Missing you already my beloved Sadie
