Heart Breaking Decision...that everyone has to go through.

[Frances Pendrous (Horan)]

I know this is "doodle" website but today my heart is breaking and I wanted to share it my animal-loving friends. Tonight, my darling Maine Coon, Dudley, age 13 years is being sent to Heaven. He has cancer which is making it hard for him to breath. I cannot stand watching him struggle to get air but I cannot stand the thought of having to do this. We are paying our vet way too much money to come to home to do it tonight so that I don't have to traumatize him anymore than needed. I have two other kitties and of course, my beloved doodle, but man...I am a wreck today and the pain in my heart is beyond description. This picture was taken only four weeks ago..how can this be happening????I loathe the "circle of life" right now:{

Frances, I share your feelings. We were in the same situation earlier this month with our oldest dog and even though we have other dogs to hug, he left a huge hole in our family.

I'm so sorry Frances. Your Family is in my thoughts.

[Donna K & Quincy]

Frances, Our thoughts are with you and your family during this incredibly sad time.

[Rose]

Frances, I'm so sorry for the loss of your beautiful Dudley. My thoughts are with you.

[Paul & Michele]

Sorry Frances to hear about Dudley. These decisions are never easy. We will be thinking of you and your family. Take care.

"If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to Heaven and bring you home again"

A million thank you's to everyone for the outpouring of support and condolences...Each and everyone of you who sent me sweet words of kindness and prayers made this awful week just a little easier for me. Blessings to all of you :)

I haven't been able to comment on this in days because it makes me so sad. We had a maine coon named Dinky growing up, she was the best!

Thank you for sharing Dudley's story. Keeping you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

That is a very heart breaking decision, I just went through that with my beautiful Cinder, she was only 7, she looked like a Maine Coon. You know you did what was best for her and now she is in Kitty Heaven and no longer suffering!
