Kyril

We'll never forget you

Biki’s comment on my last post made me realise that I haven’t passed on my one piece of sad news.

In October, Gary and I took the terribly painful decision to have our beloved Kyril put to sleep. Unfortunately the anti-inflammatory drugs that were relieving the symptoms of his arthritis caused his kidneys to fail. He was in a lot of pain and couldn’t eat. The kind and the right thing to do was to let him go.

I have made some difficult decisions in my life but this was one of the hardest. We’ll miss Kyril and we’ll never forget how much joy he gave us in the 10 years he was with us.

    I’m sorry hear about your loss. Even though putting them to sleep might be the right thing to do, it’s always a horrible decision to make.

    We were out of cats in our home for about a year before we felt ready to start all over again. Having two new cats is lovely indeed, however it doesn’t take away the loss our dear companion. Still miss her.

    Love
    Daniel

    I am very sorry to read this. I have lost a pet this year and I know how painful it can be. My dog, a cross border collie, died suddenely in the Summer, my Mother found her dead in the garden.

    I was more upset about her passing than I have been about any other loss.

    Oh Malcolm!

    I know what lovely kryil meant to the both of you. After 17 years our Akita had a stroke and had to be put down 4 years ago. And still even after moving twice since that dreadful day, there are times when I come home that I’m surprised she isnt there to meet me at the door.

    Our loving 4 legged friends work into our hearts in a way no 2 legger ever does.

    Hugs for your and Gary’s loss.
