An Important Health Update from Sister Precious

      101 Comments on An Important Health Update from Sister Precious

Brian's Home. Adopt cats, we deserve it!
Hello everyone. It’s me Precious and it’s time we had a serious chat. You see, I’m not doing overly well. Not well at all. I have good days and I have bad days. Right now I’ve had more good days, two weeks ago I had more bad days.

I am not sure how much longer I’ll be staying, but I wanted to give you a heads up so you wouldn’t be surprised.  I might be here a while yet, but then again, I might not.  It seems as though lots of things are going wrong all at the same time.  I’m 14 now so I suppose that’s just part of the aging process for me.  Getting old sucks though.  I just wasn’t expecting for it to hit all at once.

I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate all of you welcoming me to the blogosphere and I can always feel all the love you send my way.  I’m lucky to have landed here, and I do know that.  I’m still very happy and intend to stay that way.  Oh, I’m a fighter but sometimes there’s only so much you can do.  I don’t intent to give up without a fight though.

Thanks for letting me get this off my chest and thanks for all the purrs and prayer I know that will be coming when you read this.  I love you all too.

Remember, adopt cats, we deserve it!!!!!  More Forever Homes More Often!  Purrrrr! Zip! Later!

Precious, this saddens us deeply. We hope you’ll be here for quite a while yet, with good quality of life, but we also understand the reality that sometimes that’s not possible. Whatever happens, know you are surrounded by love–from your family and from many around cyber space. Blessings and purrs to you.

Dear Beautiful Sister Precious…….I am sending you tons of purrs and POTP…….it’s not easy getting old and only another “oldie” can understand. I am in the same place you are in my life (just turned 16 in January) and I have lots of good AND bad days. Some days Mom is sure I’m leaving her – but next day I’m OK……I keep my humans guessing! For now though, I’m hanging in there – but I know like you, every hour I’m here I’m loved completely and unconditionally…….it’s the BEST feeling isn’t it? I know you feel that as well………we are… Read more »

Dear Precious we are so very sorry your bad days are more often now. We know how hard it is to go thru this for you and your humans. We made the same decision for Georgie when she was having more and more health issues requiring hospital stays. It is a quality of life issue. When it gets so that the bad days way outnumber the good, then it is not a good quality of life. Hoping you will be with your family for a while longer – sending lots of loving purrs to you all.

I am sorry you are not doing so well, Precious. Keep fighting though and treasure your good days. It is 16 months now since I became ill and 14 months since I almost crossed the Bridge. My bad days were getting really bad and my mum and dad thought it was my time, but mum felt in her heart that I was not ready, and I am still here. I still have bad days, but only about 2 a week. On my good days I really enjoy my life. What I am trying to tell you is keep fighting, don’t… Read more »

Precious, I know what it is like to lose a cat at 14; that is too young an age to go, so you hang on, improve, feel better and stay around a lot longer. I know it can be very tough when so many bad things hit at once. Often, it seems as if some things are under control and then something unexpected or unknown hits. You have the best care possible there and plenty of love; those will keep you safe and happy for as long as possible.
