RN Costa, one of the greatest things we can do for a beloved pet is to let them go peacefully.

I know how hard it was for you to part with Costakitty. You made the right decision.

You gave him a life full of love. You let him go in a way that was peaceful for him.

He loves you.

RN, thank you everyone. Dogdoc, I know it was the right decision, but it still hurts to know that he had to go. And that everything I put him thru that last week couldn't save his life. But he did go peacefully, and he was in my arms in the home he loved. That was the right, and the only, choice.

RN, Kassie is not doing so well either... she keeps looking for her brother. And I can't explain to her what happened. I tried to show her Costa after it was all over, but he still had that damn hospital smell. She looked kind of confused and hissed a bit.

Also RN, I so appreciate all my friends. Both those I've met and those I know online. You have no idea how much your support means to me.

(BTW, Dogdoc or anyone, if you have any suggestions on how to get Kassie over this, I am all ears. She has spent hours in my lap and when she's not in my lap she's pacing the house or meowing.)

I just happened upon this thread and am reading all these posts. Costa, I'm so sorry about the loss of your beloved little man. I know the pain you are going through. There are no words to truly express how sad I am for your loss.

RN, Costa, the only thing that brought smiles back to our other dog's face was to get a new puppy. I don't know if works that way with cats. Heck, I think the only thing that brought smiles back to my face was getting a new puppy after my first one left us.

RN Costa, we use homeopathic remedies in our practice. Ingatia is the remedy we use for grief. You could probably get some from a health food store.

Kassie is picking up on your distress and wants to help you. She knows how much you miss Costakitty. Let her know that you are ok and that she is very important to you.

(Costakitty is comfortable now and relaxing in a soft blue pet bed. He is content to wait there for you).

RN, that makes total sense, Dogdoc. Since "I" was smiling again after getting my new puppy, my other dog must have sensed it and become happy along with me, just because I was happier. She was probably staying upset until then just because I was still upset.

RN, (((((Costa)))) I'm more sorry than words on this board can ever convey. Our furry children are so much a part of our family, their loss is a grief that many don't understand. May you be comforted in the memory of wonderful times spent together.

As for Kassie, I'm gonna go on the record for acupuncture and Tong Ren (sp?) therapy. When my Bailey was fighting his liver cancer, my acupuncturist worked with him to help him heal. He was also having massive anxiety issues because of the many trips to the doctor and hospital stays. Not to mention that he is absolutely neurotic anyway. It helped so much. I'll always believe he's still with me 2 years after they said he'd be gone because of her work.

That being said, it has to be the right person doing the work. I'm in Portland, but I'm sure there are wonderful acupuncturists in the San Diego area.

RN, and let me clarify that Tong Ren (Google it!) is not actually needles in your pet. It's more of a energy healing process using chi as the guiding principal. A doll (I call it their voodoo doll, but IDK what it's actually called) is used as a representative of your pet, and the needles are inserted in the doll. I know it sounds OUT there for anyone who doesn't believe in eastern medicine, but seriously. When the first needle went into the doll the first treatment, my neurotic, pacing, antsy boy laid down and slept like a deflated doll. It was one of those OMG moments.

RN, Oh Costa, I am so very very sorry. Grief is so very hard. (((((Costa))))) You are a great mom to your pets. He felt your love.

(Re: Kassie, I had two littermates for 19 years. After one died, I just spent as much time as I could holding her sister. I tried to feel calm and peaceful for her sake. I would go into another room when I felt I had to sob. I tried to shield her (and our dog) from my extreme grief.)

In memory of Costa

I'm so very sorry, Costacat & Kassie too. I remember when I posted about Spencer's heart murmur, you offered some very helpful & comforting advice. You made the hardest, but bravest and most loving, decision to let him go. It still hurts though.



Riviere & family

I'm sorry and hope things are better soon for all of you.
