Hi All, I thought I would share some photos of an old friend of mine who passed away in her sleep a couple of weeks ago, her name was Catherine and she'd been in our shelter at Cats Protection (www.cats.org.uk) for a few months, having come in as a rather bedraggled stray. She had hyperthyroidism and successfully survived surgery to remove it a couple of months ago, but I guess it was her time this time. I loved her so much, purrs for you, my sweetheart... www.g6urp.co.uk/catherine Ivor

So sorry for the lost. I guess if you could say there was a bright side to it that it would be that she had a home for her last days and did not go someplace outside by herself. She lived in relative comfort for the last few days of her life. >Hi All, > >I thought I would share some photos of an old friend of mine who passed >away in her sleep a couple of weeks ago, her name was Catherine and she'd >been in our shelter at Cats Protection (www.cats.org.uk) for a few months, >having come in as a rather bedraggled stray. > >She had hyperthyroidism and successfully survived surgery to remove it a >couple of months ago, but I guess it was her time this time. > >I loved her so much, purrs for you, my sweetheart... >

So hard to lose any of them, but it's especially sad when they have endured a surgery and it turned out not to have helped. They do know when they are loved, though, and Catherine was fortunate to have been among the loved. Lovely lady, too. Thanks for posting the photos. Diana

Thanks to everyone that expressed their sympathy at the loss of my lovely Catherine, it is very much appreciated. We have lots of other old ones at the shelter, Billie (14+), Malcolm (16), Peach (19) and Priscilla (at least 16..!) to name just a few, keep them in your thoughts over the holiday period :-) Ivor

However, 19yr old Peach went home yesterday, one of our volunteers took him (yes, he's a fella, strange name but he doesn't care :-) ) Ivor
