Our Beautiful Girl Is Gone
Smudge's Mom > 10-21-2021, 05:10 PM
This morning, the Amazing Princess PookaPee, left us to rejoin her beloved Smudge.
Although not unexpected, still it was very sudden. Last night she was fine (well fine for a 96 year old) but sometime during the night she took a bad turn. When I awoke this morning, her bed was covered with vomit and bowel fluids,
and even though she wanted her breakfast, her face and eyes did not look right.
The doctor took us immediately for an evaluation. She told me that two systems (heart and kidneys) were shutting down simultaneously and the treatment for one was the exact opposite of the treatment for the other. It was decided that the time had come and my precious girl passed peacefully in my arms.
My wonderful girl was 19 year and 9 months old. She had been our baby since she was 20 weeks old when I got a call from her breeder to please rescue her from her adoptive parents and fly her back to Connecticut. I fell in love during the hour car ride from the "Evil People". I will love her and miss her forever.
