Cat passed away

[Doug]

so my beloved cat of 16 1/2 years has passed away..

the thing is I am so afraid to tell my dd because of the stress it will cause her

and as we all know stress can triger pandas,I am going to tell her on Thursday

she just thinks she is at pet smart,I told her that dad took there there because she was walking

with a limp..

I just need to choose my words.. dont use old or sick

ok I think I am just posting this so I can give myself a pep talk

I am so glad I found her before she woke up...

I don't think I will ever stop thinking about things that might set her off

so far we are 17 weeks post ivig and still doing good, after this I hope I can post and say

it was all ok..

Thanks everyone

Sorry for the bad news

 

Our kids actually took our 16 year old dog passing away (last year) pretty well...they knew she was really old which helped. It seemed that it was much easier to accept that then the death of a younger pet.

 

btw, his might be a good book for your dd http://www.amazon.com/Tenth-Good-Thing-Abo...y/dp/0689712030
