Post a picture of your pet

[gavgav]

I'm sad to report an N-1 pet-wise in our household. Beattie developed a limp and swollen shoulder a few days ago and initially it was thought to be an infection so she came home from the vet with antibiotics, painkillers and instructions that she must rest.

Yesterday she took a sudden turn for the worse and went for a scan where it was found that she had a tumour and that the swollen shoulder had been a secondary effect.

Since, strictly speaking, she belongs to my parents they had to make a hard decision and earlier today Beattie was put to sleep.

My thoughts are with you. Took a few minutes for it to sink in when I read Doug's text, will miss her as well.

I know this is no consolation, but if I were ever in Beattie's position, I would wish to be put to sleep gently.

Sorry to hear it.

Thankyou Arch. I was thinking along those lines as well. I'm glad this wasn't a long drawn out illness - she was quite active and seemed happy 'til quite near the end.

My thoughts are with you. Took a few minutes for it to sink in when I read Doug's text, will miss her as well.

Thanks Gav. It was a big shock here too as it all happened so quick. You'll probably find Busby even more clingy than normal next time you come over.

I am so sorry about Beattie.

Once again, thanks for the kind comments. We buried her today - a nice spot in the garden near where she used to like to stand and bark at any visitors but where she shouldn't get disturbed.

I'm afraid that was when it finally sank in properly for me.

Just a quick post to report the sad news that my boy cat Fatty Arbuckle had to be put to sleep a few days ago, poor thing was losing weight and starting to have a few other health problems.
16+ years of happy memories, he will be sadly missed R.I.P.

I'm very sorry that you are going through this too Potsy. My family send their best wishes.

I know I said this to you the other day but I think it helps to share with those who understand. People who don't keep animals often can't comprehend how much they become part of the family.

The grief will subside but the happy memories will go on.

I've not got a pic of our newest greyhound 'Izzy' on this machine. For those that know the bloodlines she's a typical grey 'Honcho' hound.

Very sad to hear of all your losses. This is not ours, but my Son's friends dog who passed away a several weeks ago.
He asked my Son to paint a picture of him...
