Taken Oct 24th. A wee bit gaunt, but still the 'regular' Pipo. |
Taken Nov 3. Very gaunt and rather listless |
Nov 3. Here you can see how unkempt and thin he had become. Pipo: Just enjoying a last warm sun puddle, but only because my loving petcretary put me here... |
This morning, Pipo was so listless and unwilling to come out of the hidey hole he was in, even though his fave food was in the dish, new fresh water in the bowl, and petcretary crooning to him to come and enjoy a sun puddle.When he finally did come out, he was staggering like he was drunk, but he did lick some food and had a wee drink. Petcretary picked me up and she could feel my every bone. He was rather limp in her arms as she cuddled him, and he did not move off the condo which was in a huge warm sun puddle.
We had a vet appointment....and he said there was a large abdominal mass...more than likely the progression of the earlier diagnosed lymphoma. So to end Pipo's languishing and suffering, PIpo was helped into eternal sleep.
He now resides at the Rainbow Bridge with his beloved Minko, and his (not so beloved) doggy brofur MrJackFreckles. He also got to meet all his other kitty brofurs and sisfur; Groucho, Simba, Toki and Suki.
We are devastated and feel very empty in our home right now. Esp Pawppy, who Pipo adored, far more then any of the other kitties ever had...and now there will not be any purring comforter when he gets home from the hospital...likely 4 days after the surgery, (Sat or Sunday), which is Wed the 4th in the afternoon.
Rest well, Pipo, soon you will discover those beautiful Angel Wings you have earned.
Pipo Dec 26, 2004 ~ Nov 3, 2020 |

Utterly heartbroken that Pipo has gone. I looked forward to seeing him every week on the blog and hiss lovely eyes and gorgeous colour. He had a special part in my week.
ReplyDeleteVery upset for you. You have been kindness itself to us, so if I can be of any help. Email me, I am here.
I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your precious Pipp. I lost my sweet Tsunami a few months ago so reading about the loss of your beautiful cat breaks my heart. I am grieving with you. xoxo
ReplyDeleteWe have only just heard, and are so so saddened that the darkness in the skies has deepened and the light in our heart dimmed. We offer our condolences to you all, and am so very grateful to have been allowed into your lives to share Pipo's thoughts and smiles and undoubtedly a few wry thoughts on the pups that came to stay. May your hears grow largr with fond memories and not the tears of loss.
ReplyDeleteLots of gentle purrs for a truly fine feline who will be very dearly missed by all.

I came over from POTP to tell you how sorry I am about the loss of your most handsome Pipp. I have a special place in my heart for Siamese cats - I grew up with them, and they were the only cat that my Mom ever wanted. And, we have one in our home that came with a senior Lab (long story) - So I know what special and unique characters they are. I hope you are finding comfort in your memories, and strength in knowing that the blogging community is sharing his loss with you.
ReplyDeleteHi, Kim. I went to your POTP page and I couldn't get in because my security feature said it was malicious, BOL!! Sorry, The POTP site too....this is something new with many sites I visit now, even my own has gotten this red page for some...I tried to tell the 'security peeps to remove this warning to allow full access to your site and the POTP site as well. Sorry to tell you this, but I thought you would like to know. Not sure if that would happen in other browsers??
DeleteThanks for your kind words. I was able to see the entry on POTP for Pipo, but could not access the comment section. Technology can be so annoying sometimes.
