Geri, this is so hard. Thank you for caring. We’re seeing the doctor in the morning. I just posted about a friend whose cat had a similar mass and hers ruptured and she suffered terribly. I don’t want that for Walter and am trying to do what’s best for him. As we all do. 💔I’ll post an update tomorrow. Toni -

So, here\’s where we are. Darling Walter, feline, 15 y/o, has a fast-growing malignant mass where his small and large intestines meet. A dear friend just lost his cat to a mass that ruptured her intestines. She was in agony. He is supporting me if I choose to let Walter go, to prevent the risk of that happening to him. At Faithful Friends we talk about anticipating, preparing for, and experiencing the death of a beloved pet. I am crossing from anticpation to preparing to say good bye to Walter, before his mass has a chance to cause him extreme suffering. But, and this is where it\’s so terribly hard, he doesn\’t seem to be in pain right now. But surely, with a mass growing he is experiencing some level of discomfort, I must think. The oncologist said he is probably feeling it. If you have experienced anything similar with your beloved pet, would you mind sharing your insights here ? I appreciate your help and support at this time.-

Oh Rachel, so much sadness and deep pain with your parting from Alphonse. You were together almost fifteen years? What a lovely life to share. The awful truth is that our beloved pets are only on loan to us, never for long enough. The great part is giving and getting a love like no other. For that we are grateful. But the deeper the love, the deeper the pain. Your house must feel empty? I found holding and petting a stuffed toy helped me. Talking to our group – next meeting is April 20th – really helps and I hope you’ll join us. And Rachel, please tell us what happened with Alphonse? It can help you, and others, to share our experiences. I am thinking of you with sincere sympathy and sending you a {{ BIG HUG}}. ToniTONI NOEL is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Toni, I am praying for Walter and you. Please let us know what the doctor had to say. I had a cat that had cancer of the ear. She did fine for about three years but then I had to put her to sleep because it actually started bleeding.

Rachel, I am so sorry you lost Alphonse. The name makes me think he had quite the personality. Did he? I would like to hear how he was. He clearly had your heart. Talking about him, describing him will keep you connected and over time may slowly change from grief to appreciation that you had him in your life. Best wishes to you!

Toni Noel posted a new activity comment 3 years, 7 months ago
Thank you for the holiday wishes, Geri. It’s so nice of you to let us know you, Syrus and Hex are well. My Walter seems okay but it’s hard for me to evaluate how he’s really feeling. We see his doctor tomorrow and I’m hoping she can give me insight. We know his mass is fast-growing but I don’t see that he is uncomfortable. Love ’em good and hard while we can 💕🤗 -

Angel, this community is a bit like a shoulder to cry on. We know your pain. Talking about your loss gives a little bit of relief. It can’t take the pain away but you feel less alone with it. At least that’s my experience. I am sending good wishes to you. -

Hi Dorothy, all of us here know the pain of having to let them go. Let us know about Cody or show us a photo if it feels right. Talking about them helps a little bit in my experience. Sending good wishes! -

We lost Molly our lab and Joanie our dachshund in October of 2021. We miss them so much along with Zoe in July of 2022. Please light a candle for them. I lost our first dachshund in 2004. Her name was Tasha.

It has been a little over a month now and I still cry and talk to her picture all the time and tell her how much I miss her. I know as time goes on hit will get easier but right now it is still raw. -
