April 16 Rascal - Rest in Peace

Hi to all my friends and family. Today marks a year that Rascal has been gone. I miss her so much as I am sure most of you do as well. So, today, on this special day, please say a little something or think a little something special about my sweet, missed kitty. She was definitely the most perfectess cat that ever was and marked my heart deeply forever. She was my baby. I love you Rascal. I hope that wherever your kitty soul is playing today, you are catching lots of mousers and playing with lots of lizards. Or maybe you are basking in the sunshine or laying on a gigantic piece of lambskin and dreaming. Take care my sweet cat and remember we love and miss you all so much.

R.I.P. Rascal passed on April 16th

This is the last diary entry to be posted and I, the owner, am posting it for my sweet loving Rascal. I have not have the nerve to post until now, because it makes me sad and still touches a place in my heart that I have not been able to fully go as of yet. Rascal passed on April 16th in my arms at Northeast Animal Clinic in St. Petersburg, FL. Those in attendance were me (her loving mom), her grandfather, and my boyfreind, who was in attendance to take care of me and my father as we grieved.
Rascal lived for a good 20 years and led a very happy, lazy cat life. The last few months of her life went from slight loss of hearing to almost complete blindness, yet she would not give up. It was time to make a decision because nature was not taking its course and Rascal did not want to go. It was almost like she was living for me. It was the day after I called her vet to set up the appt. to have her put to sleep, that she gave up and in so many mews, asked for help from her human counterparts. It was the hardest decision I have ever made. I miss my baby so.
I had a single cremation arranged for her and her ashes, along with her memory book and many photos sits next to my bed. She is with me always and always will be.
We love and miss you sweet Rascal! Not a day goes by that I come home and can't wait to see you curled up in a ball under your favorite light next to the bed or scratching at my face in the morning to wake me up...I miss that. I miss you. : (

Its been about three years since my late night trip to the emergency room. I was diagnosed with kidney failure and if my Mom did not get me there when she did, I'd be in kitty heaven. My doc said I had another two years, at the most, but I'm still kicking, hissing and biting! I get fluids subcutaneously every other day, but its not so bad, and I feel like a kitten again! I love my crazy life and my crazy Mom!!!!
