4 weeks ago yesterday we had to say goodbye to a much loved member of our family. Thanks to the compassion and understanding of our young vet, our last memories of Monty (15 and 1/2 yrs old pointer cross) was of him lying in the sun in his garden with the birds singing and the three people who loved him most at his side. O lord tears are here again |

Our dog before Monty (16 yrs ago) wnet asleep in our lounge - think you just have to ask. One of the partners came that time - he was our vet but retired last year. Monty never even saw the vet as he slipped behind him and quickley adminstered the sedative - then left the garden out of Monty's sight saying he would come back in 10 minutes or so. Not a nice part of their job. |

Oh god I know just how you feel. But what a lovely way for your old boy to pass. A beautiful final gift for a special friend. |

when we have been out an come through garden gate - it is silly but I avoid lokking at patio doors as he used to lie there watching over his domain when we were out or weather was bad. however although our hearts break when they go - how they did enrich our lives when they were here. |

All my sympathy. We had an elderly dog and cat (they were great friends) put down together a couple of years ago. They came to us together as pup and kitten, they left us together and are buried together in each others arms. We miss them both, the dog more than the cat as the OH used to take him for frequent walks and we have adopted a 13yo cat as her owners were going overseas, so she helps fill that gap. |

Oh dear it is a tearful site today, what with Oz the budgie and now Monty and songs that set you off. *sobbing now* thinking of my cat, Tiger or Peeps was his nickname, seen him being born and had him for 18 years. Had to leave him at the vets and since have never been able to have another cat. Could not go through that again....... |

I feel for all of you. I lost my 4 yr old cat to luekeamia(?) and my 17 year old to my next door neighbour running him over. I now have 4 cats, 5yrs, 3yrs and 2 that are almost 2 (brother and sister). I also have a dog that is 1 on the 27th. I have pictures of the cats on my wall. How sad, i still cry xxxxxxxxxxxxx |
