Very sad day whilst on holiday

[PPM]

We have just been wakened up at 3:30 with a phonecall form our son who was looking after our cats, whilst we were in Florida. He found the eldest one, Meiko, staggering and falling over when he went in to feed them. Took her straight to the vets, who diagnosed kidney failure ( her kidneys had been getting worse over the past year). So John our son called us from the vets and explained what happened, and handed us over to the vet, who basically said her time had come. We sadly agreed and the vet arranged for her to be gently put to sleep.
Mrs PPM is obviously very upset because she can’t be there, as we just get home on Friday. We both feel helpless being over here just now.

The vet has been marvellous and has arranged everything with the pet crematorium etc.
John has been strong too as it his first experience of handling the passing of a pet.

Just typing this up now at 5:45 as I can’t get back to sleep.

RIP Meiko.

PPM. I am so sorry to hear your news. All of you must be devastated made worse by not being there. Well done to your Son for dealing with the issue in your absence, not easy for him either.
Take care.

I'm so sorry to read this...the best decision to make in the circumstances and even though you weren't there, Meiko wasn't alone. Lots of hugs x

Bad enough when you are close to hand. No words but hoping you get comfort from making the right decision and at least your son was there and dealing
