At 4:30 this early morning, my petite grey tiger kitty departed for the Rainbow Bridge. I adopted her in 2014 from the horse rescue that I support. My daughter and I took her to the vet 2 weeks ago as she was not eating, losing weight and sleeping all the time. She was down from 12 lbs to 7 lbs. A blood panel was run, but it only showed slight anemia. Dr Lisa suggested several things to perk up her appetite. Nothing worked. Last week Dr Lisa put her on prednisone, to get her eating and to shrink the suspected tumor. Sarah took over her care, hand feeding and syringe feeding. Gracie slept with her the last week (all dogs banished from the bedroom). Sarah said she crawled up to her neck, moaned and exhaled loudly and peed and was gone. Sarah wrapped her in a blanket and rocked her until she was sure Gracie was passed. She waited til 6 to message me, I was awake but knew immediately when my phone dinged so early that it was Gracie. We had no idea how old she was. But she is at peace and knew she was loved.
