This morning my sweet little Candy Cane crossed the Rainbow Bridge. I loved her so very much and I have been crying my eyes out all day. My precious baby girl has struggled her entire life and she just finally had enough. She let us know she was tired and ready to give up her fight, so I gave her the only gift left to give her. She passed peacefully and painlessly from this life, where she will never again be sick, never struggle to breathe. Run free, my love. I know I'll see you again. Thank you for working so hard to live with me, thank you for bringing me close to some life long friends, and thank you for the blessings and joy you have given me. I am sorry I haven't been home with you. I wish I could've held you one more time or listened to you purring on my lap just once more. I hope you knew how loved you were. We traveled a long, difficult road together, Candy. But I don't regret being your mama lady for one second.
Carry my love with you, Cane....because love is everything.
Always,
Mama

Susi you are the ultimate Mama Cat or is that Cat Mama. I will forever be thankful for that sweet Candy Cane. Our friendship developed over discussions on how you willed her to live when she was struggling when she was a wee baby battling pancreatitis. Cry until there are no more tears Bestie....she is forever In your heart...and mine.

Susi, how old was Candy Cane? You and she fought to give her these years, and I am so glad you are, as @Catzzzmeow says, THE Cat Mama. I am so glad that Bob could paint her portrait for you, so she will be watching over you when you do get to go home. We love you and I am crying with you tonight.

Thank you all so much for your kind words. Julie, I think Candy was five, but all her records are at home, so I'm not sure. I only know I will miss her. She held a special place in my heart.
Goodnight everyone...this has been a very difficult day and I am exhausted. Can't wait for sleep to come to ease my heart...

Oh my, Susi, I too was one of little Candy Cane' s biggest fans.
I remember from the day she was born.
She was a miracle. She had the best life any animal could have.
Having you as a Mum. I know words don't do much for a broken hear.
But, I will pray for you only the Lord can give you comfort and peace.
He has brought you through so much, this will be no different.
Susi, you are simply, in a deep, dark, hard valley and it's been a long
one. But, look back, I'm sure you think, Lord, how did I ever get through
that? But, you instantly say, I know, it was because of you.
He's still in control, prayers and many of them going up for you.
Love you.

@susi794 , comforting ((( hugs))) and deepest sympathy for the crossing of Candy Cane-
She knows true love because of you.. She took a piece of your heart with her to the the bridge and is looking down eternally grateful for all your unconditional selfless love.. Close your eyes and always feel Candy Cane's purr in your heart.. The bridge has one very special Angel ..

She is loved and missed by all the hearts she touched

I know you always were a cheer leader for Candy. I loved you so much for that. And you're right about The Lord giving me peace. I don't think I'd have been able to live through this last year without Him and all the prayer warriors, like you, who've lifted me up when I thought I couldn't face another day. We have been through a lot, my friend...and I'm so grateful for the gift of your friendship.
And the same goes for you ALL. Whether we are old friends or new ones, I consider our friendship to be a blessing. And I thank you.
Much love,
Susi

Julie and Bob, the painting of Candy is cherished now more than ever. Thank you.

Oh @susi794 I'm so very sorry for the passing of Candy Cane. Candy Cane had a very loving, warm and carrying mommy. Although you couldn't be with her I know she felt your love.
My thoughts are with you. Take care, Natasja

@susi794 , thinking of you and sending a great big (( comforting hug)))

We are here for you.. I know I still get teary eyed no matter how much time passes..
They say "the wound heals but the scar still remains-"
The lair family is always here for each other when those scars weep..
We share the sphynx journey together and we truly get it deep inside.
Candy Cane touched soo many hearts forever.

"always look for the angels, they are everywhere"
In a whisper in the wind, the flutter of a butterfly stopping by for a visit,
And the beautiful rainbows they send us from the bridge-
