my cat were going to have to put her to sleep, she's...it all started with her weezing, it wasnt anything serious but it started happening more and more, but i don't it was weezing she would sound like she coughted. Then we took her to the vet, they took an xray of her lungs and said there was abnormalies but nothing serious. We then were given medicine to shoot in mouth, it's a squirter, you squirt it in their mouth. The medication did nothing, and then her breathing started happening, she started having to breathe hardly, or labored breathing. Now it has gotten so bad that she's has to pant. From my personal view, it was the medicine they gave us. It caused temporary blindness, When we squirted it in her mouth, she could of breathed it in. And then that wehn the breathing got bad, its bad to the point now that she's panting. We're either going to put her to sleep, or let her pass away here at home. This is ... the reason i'm posting is because this pain and regret, of even taking her to the vet and giving her medicine that made it worse. I am such pained right now, she's been here for 15 years, she was doing perfect 2 months ago. There was no symptoms nothing, it all happened at once. I rerember all the times she's been here, the fun times, the sad times, the important time, and i never knew that this could happen so fast, causing this breathing failure. I don't know who reads, i'm in pained, because ... all of it, it happened so fast, it was like a shock. 2 months ago she was converising and having fun around the house. I just am so hurt, and so pained, and remorsed, i never knew she would go like this. All the times in the 2010s she lived, and brought so much life to the house, as even a family member. I keep the pain but it's in my chest were heart is, and it radiates in hurt, and completly like you lost someone in a car accident. I know an animal is not equvilant to a human, but she was a human, she talked with her meow, she watched tv with us, she talked to us in her kitty langualge. She would be around when we opening presents for christmas. I'm going through memories and rerember the best of them. Anyway, i just had to write this, thank you for reading. End of log

i've been praying online, countless websites and prayer wall, many people have prayed, but it just....didnt work. God doenst do things man's ways, there have been many people who have prayed to god, to keep their spouse alive, and save them and it didnt work. I don't hold grudges, because yes god's ways are not man's ways, or thoughts and plans.

She passed away this morning in her pink blanket which was her favorite blanket and bed. I took it hard but been trying suppress emotions coming out after death. I saw her body last time she seemed as she was sleeping when I found her, sleeping to place of eternal youth and beauty. as she was sleeping the calmest beautiful sleep. She was curled up in her favorite pink blanket. She's going to be cremated, I had to post and transmission out. I never thought she would go this fast 2 months ago she was active and healthy. It's like a car accident, it happens quick and in shock. I know it's an animal but was really almost a person. I had to write this on net. God sometimes doesn't awnser prayers as we expect him too, there have been many many people devestated when their spouse or family member was dying,and prayer and faith did not work. Like said before I don't want to hold grudges against god, because yes I know his ways are not man's ways. And sometimes I think death is pre-destination, that it was suppose to happen, no matter how much prayer has been done. I hope things will get better, but the deep melancholy and remorse that we could of saved her if we only got proper medical treatment. I'm ending this, but thank you for reading at least someone knows. Thank you. End of log

they aren't trying to fight you (or if they are that's obvious). they aren't trying to scam you. they aren't pretending one thing to your face and another thing behind your back...

thank alex, i've been still in pain, just thinking about seeing in her pink blanket. Yes, she was just fine in march, and april, it was in may when she started coughing, we took her to the vet they gave her tons of medication that she didnt need. She had temporary blindness from side effects from 3 potent medications they gave her. It was antibiotic, ashma medication, and anti fungal med. None of it was treating well. So, today after 2 she died still rerembering her good times. It just is a shock this happened so quick. She fell asleep, to calm rest after she passed. Thank alex, :) for good vibes during this sad time

these labradoodle dogs are all the rage...
soft and slightly curly short fur... (hypoalagernic and non-shedding apparently)
i see you can get synthetic coats... of (what i like to call) labradoodle fur...
once upon a time i had a friend who found, maybe in a second hand shop, a synthetic fur coat of husky dog.
it is a strange thing... dr martin 10 up boots... unevenly matched knee-socks... a dress of some or other variety.. and a synthetic huskey-fur coat...
was a viable 'alternative' look (which is to say 'cool' to the 'right' perceiver... which is to say, somehow, 'respectable' to everyone else... back in high school...
anyway... she made me think of that.
because i've recently been seeing labradoodle fake-fur coats and they reminded me of the husky dog fake fur coat...
my mother died relatively recently... like... 1/2 a year ago...
she had this polar fleece blanket... very very very very very very soft... anyway... it reminded me (reminds me) still of these fake fur coats...
because, you know, furs are unethical... apparently...
even possum furs and the like (when possums are declared national pests).
anyway... the polar fleece... a very very very very soft grey.. of no known animal... it is very comforting to me. being soft. and it doesn't have a personality...
i do miss pets. but i don't have a home to speak of -- so how can i provide a home to a pet? i don't even have an income (in excess of my expenditure). i can't even afford my rent! New Zealand wont't even acknowlege any of my qualifications (earned here or overseas)... Won't process or progress any of my applications to study or to work... It's quite the slave - detention - indentured / bonded servant camp nation of the world... So far as I can see...
While the government officials spend.. Obscene amounts of money attempting to cover up their crimes...

I mean, seriously, with the whole 'being humble' thing...
I accept accommodation in Salmond College rather than Knox...
Partly because I have an ensuite bathroom at Salmond and I don't trust shared bathrooms in these days of people having mobile phones and using mirrors and so on...
I mean, c'mon, let's face it, people think it is something to do.. Taking pictures or filming people in shared bathroom spaces..
So, it turns out that there were a variety of set ups with the accommodation at Knox and there are, basically, individual bathrooms, available...
But the fact that the big name (woot woot) wasn't important to me...
Being humble...
Means oh yeah I lose the great competition of life because it's sooooooo competitive.
It's soooooooo cmopetitive in New Zealand that abortion is A okay.
And so is infantacide for that matter.
Murder someone -- well that's likely okay, too. Maybe a little home detention.
No right to education.. No right to health.
New Zealand prevented and prohibited a lot of pregnant women from coming home to NZL due to covid restriction.
Will the foreign countries sue the NZL governmetn for hte cost of raising teh kid as a citizen of there?
Will the US sue the NZL government for any kids born in the US (therefore US citizens) becuase the NZL government f*cked up the whole lockdown thing (unlawfully)?
I mean...
The benefits yuo get as an in-state citizen in the USA...
How much do those cost?
And the NZL government is liable because they unlawfully prevented NZL citizen women from going back to NZL to give birth to a NZL baby that would happily have been aborted by the NZL government.
I mean..
The value of a life in NZL...
Is so little / so low... That's how come we are happy happy happy to aborth them so. Not educate them. Not provide healthcare. No job for them. Euthanasia ho!!!

i'm missing her as family member, that she is not here anymore, she was always around during christmas and say and watched us open our gifts, she talked to us in kitty language, my mom told me she died and i came into the room, she was in her pink blanket curled up like she was sleeping. Seeing her for the last time, ill always that last image of her sleeping in a place of beauty and rest

the last days, she could hardly breathe, and my mom we were taking her into the doctor, and it was expensive it was around 500 dollers for a visit, then to do scans and blood work was about 300 more. We spent around 1300 dollers on her, and none of it worked. What i know is that she had fluid in her lungs, and my mom and those doctors kept saying its infection. It was like can't you see she can hardly breathe, and that you just do a small surgery to remove the fluid, It just remorse they couldnt do the correct treatment. When she died the animal hospital sent flowers to our house, actually drove out to our house, and gave us thing of flowers and note of their sympathy. It was a very big animal hospital. That's why they were able to send flowers, and drive all the way out to our house. It was very kind of them. I know for a fact it was fluid in her lungs, that had developed. Anyways, i know this is just a cat, im writing this like someone like a person, but she really was a person, who brought life to the house. Anyways i just wanted to write this on the net, at least someone knows, thank you for reading. End of log

Hi RJ, I'm sorry to hear about your kitty. My animals add comfort and joy to life, and their lives are too short. It's hard when they go, even after living their best life.
