Sassy arrived at my doorstep a few short months ago. One look at this wee bag of bones cracked my heart wide open.
Turned out she was another “ discarded” kitty deemed disposable when no longer needed. No thought was given as to how she was supposed to survive declawed out on her own.
It was a struggle health wise for her right from the start. It seemed her time outside took a great toll on her.
My arms opened wide to fold her within the love and care of a family. She no longer knew fear or hunger. She came to realize the bliss of a ray of sunshine and the gentle stroke of a loving hand
Her health problems came to a head on August 22/2020. CCAR stepped in and ensured that her last hours were under the expert care of emergency medicine. I had hoped love would be strong enough to pull her through but her poor little soul was tired and needed rest.
If I had the power I would have wished she had more time to realize how loved she was and how just looking at her made my heart glow. Every day I marvelled at how sweet and gentle she was. It was almost like I was in the presence of an angel.
She was in my arms as she passed and for that I am grateful. She did not deserve to die alone. Rest well my sweet sweet girl and please remember you mattered in the end…you mattered a great deal.
