Sei-Chan: Today, Dear Friends, I am very sad. I learned yesterday that one of my dear friends is very unwell and will be leaving for the Bridge on Monday. Her name is Loustiquette and she lives in the south of France. She is a sister in fur to Hisia, Genji's Aby cousin who is just as blue and just as crazy as him. Loustiquette is a gorgeous tabby girl with the most beautiful eyes and Tama-Chan and I have always been huge fans of hers (as has #1).
Loustiquette has been courted for the past few years by our tabby neighbour, Basha. He too will be so saddened by what has happened. Loustiquette had been off colour for several days and today, her #1 took her to a special vet who does all kinds of imaging . It turns out that she has advanced, metastised cancer of the colon and there is nothing that can be done for her. Her family is devastated, as are we.
She has been given some strong drugs for the weekend so her family can take the time to love her a little longer and say goodbye and then, on Monday, a vet will come to her house and help her across the Bridge. Please remember this, Dear Friends. Life hangs but by a thread, and we can go from comedy to tragedy in an instant. Make sure to love those you treasure every single second of every single day.
I will so miss my sweet friend.
How sad, both for you and Loustiquette's family. You are right, life is precious. My human tries to appreciate every moment with me, and even then it does not seem like enough.
ReplyDeleteQue c'est triste... Je compatis à votre peine et pense bien fort à la famille de Loustiquette qui doit être ravagée. Il faut sans cesse profiter de la vie et de ce qu'elle nous offre, elle peut tout reprendre tellement vite. Tu es fort jolie Loustiquette et tu resteras pour toujours dans le coeur de tes humains.
