Our fur baby

luvthebeach, there is going to be no bringing our baby home tonight. Just got a call from the vet. They did an abdominal tap of his abdomen and removed some fluid and put it under the microscope. He has peritonitis and unfortunately, way worse. They found many cells that resembled adenocarcinoma and believe it is widespread in his small intestine. They said they can send off the stuff to the lab and have it tested and it will be back to them in 24 to 48 hours. I don't see letting him linger and suffer any longer. Both vets looked at the cells and came to the same conclusion. They say he doesn't have much time. So it looks as if our decision has been made for us. I am crying buckets right now.

I have welled up in tears for two days now thinking about you and Mo. Now I cry buckets with you! God Bless you both. Max and Tilly( Labs) will also be waiting...and of course Scarlet, my sweetheart Yorkie, who passed on at 13.

LadyD you are in the company of so many compassionate people. My thoughts are with you and Mo!!!!

So sorry about Mo...

Maybe we need to start a SoWal dog thread- like the Grayton Dog Wall. An official listing of our pets, their pics, and a special section for when they pass on.

We have brought him home for his last night. The severe case of peritonitis she said would start making him go downhill very fast in 3 or 4 days and with the adenocarcoma they are giving him no more than two weeks. At 7:30 in the morning our buddy will be euthanized and then will be laid to rest down in the country next to his mother and father. It will be a lonely house. We are going to miss him. Sorry to make so many people sad on here. I had to get this out of my system. I will be ordering a small grave marker with his name and date of birth and death to put on his grave like I got for his mamma when she died. He deserves that and more. My heart is broken. Thanks for the condolences. This is the hardest thing we have ever had to do.

I hope you and Mo are able to have a peaceful night Lady D. So sorry about this.

I am so sad. It is almost 5:50 here and in one hour and 40 minutes our baby will be gone. I did not probably get more than 3 hours sleep last night but Mo rested peacefully. I will get one more attempt at getting him to eat some food before he is gone from our lives and gone on to the Rainbow's Bridge where Sapphire and Moe Sr. are waiting as well as Dory and Max and Tilly and Scarlet.

We think now he was probably having a slight problem back in February but he still seemed so full of life for the most part then. But for the past month he hasn't been. Will not be back on here probably until this evening. We are putting his favorite rug in his box we built for him along with his plastic football he used to feel like playing with. It was our soft blue bathroom rug by the tub and when I was bathing he liked to come lay on it by the tub and beg for a bowl of the cold side tub water. And he got it. He hasn't done that in a month. Be thinking of me everyone as I feel so numb.

i will definitely be thinking of you lady - every time i read your posts i start crying for you. i know this is hard, but you don't want mo to suffer.

Me, too....first thread I looked at for news of you and Mo. God Bless you Ladyd. Come talk here when you need to.
