Farewell good friend

It is with sadness that I inform you that we lost a great mate today.

We lost our friend Patches early this afternoon.

She hasn't been well for a little while and until DH took her to the vet today we only knew that she was very ill and that she had developed epilepsy.

As she was soooooooooo unwell we decided that we couldn't let her suffer any more.


Today the vet said that she probably had an aneurism or a brain tumour which had been making her so unwell.

Patches was only 10 1/2 years old but she'd had a good life until about a month ago.

Farewell good friend and we'll meet again some day.

  • I'm so very sorry to hear your sad news. I have lost two dear furry friends in the last 5 years and I know that the heartache is almost unbearable at times. Be comforted in your memories and the fact that she had you all to love her and comfort her when she was unwell. My thoughts are with you!
