She’s been with us more than fifteen years, but I wonder if we’ll get more than a few days. Her back legs are failing. I have to carry her up and down the stairs.
She still loves her food, which is something. But it comes laced with pain killers and anti inflammatories. Mostly she sleeps, reminding me of Shakespeare’s sonnet on age.
That time of year thou mayst in me behold
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
Bare ruin’d choirs, where late the sweet birds sang.
I had to say goodbye to my old friend last year. 17 years old and the best friend you could wish for. I was a blubbering mess for weeks and still am somedays. But i still smile every time i look at his picture.
We had the same thing last year. Dave the Cat was with us for sixteen years, and it was past time when he went, he was in more pain than we realised. Saying goodbye to our four legged kids is never easy, is it? Thoughts are with you and the fam.
