I'm really sad to have to tell you all that our gorgeous Henrycat was put to sleep this morning. He deteriorated dramatically over the weekend, and although he was due to go to see the vet this evening, Mr JK took him this morning as we were concerned about him. The vet agreed that he wasn't going to improve, so we did the kindest thing we could for him. The house feels very empty.
Oh sweetheart I am so sorry. You did the very best thing for your darling, he was indeed very beautiful and much loved. I'm sure he has left such happy memories and a big hole in your hearts.
ReplyDeleteI am so very sorry. You did the kindest thing, and sweet Henry cat will live on in your heart. He truly was a beautiful kitty.

I'm so sorry to hear that. He looked like a character, he was very beautiful, but you did the right thing. Big hugs.
ReplyDeleteDear Helen, I am very sorry for you! I know how hard it is to come home and see no sweet pet. I hope your sadness will fade soon and you can think of Henrycat without tears and remember all the wonderful moments you had with him. :-(
ReplyDeleteBest wishes, Julia

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness. I'm so sorry to read this. Losing a pet is just awful, it's so heartbreaking, and we miss them so much. Millions of hugs to all the JosieKittens from all the Blackbeards. :( Lynne
ReplyDeleteHow very sad but I thought the writing was on the wall. It is great that you were able to let him go peacefully with a minimum of suffering. You have lovely memories.

Oh I am so sorry that you had to let your beautiful gray kitty go. I think it is best not to leave them in pain either. I am sure he is in a happy place now.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry, it is so hard to say goodbye to a beloved pet. He was beautiful (such wise eyes). It looks like you gave him a wonderful life and so much love.

I am so sorry for your loss. You don't know me but I cyber-stalk your blog and love your writing. I just had to post my condolences. My mom's lovely dog-cat (she was a dog, thought she was a cat--even tried to nurse some kittens once) is waiting for Henry-cat to cuddle. Much love!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear the news - he was a gorgeous cat. Take care of yourself.

It's such an awful time for you even though you did the right thing. I'm sending cyber hugs and positive vibes. x
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear this. R.I.P Henry Cat. Sending you hugs and prayers xx
ReplyDeleteI am so very sorry. Henrycat was indeed a very handsome cat, and clearly much loved. My heart goes out to you. {{hugs}}
ReplyDeleteI'm terribly behind on my blogs, so I've only just seen this. I'm so sorry, he was a beautiful cat. Love and hugs, Helen
ReplyDeleteOh Helen I do feel for you. Henry was such a gorgeous kitty. We had to let Hendry, our own grey cat go last year too so know how he will leave a hole. Hope that your weekend in Blackpool provided some distraction. xxx
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm so sorry. I adore that first picture of his little paws. I hope you're doing okay.
