Thank you for being brave enough to make the decision you did. I am so sorry you lost your baby. I know nothing anyone says can sooth the hurt in your heart right now, but we are all still here with you. Even though miles separate all of us from each other, I will be thinking of you and your beloved Rupert all day, and hoping that some peace of mind can make its way to you soon.



Agreed Shauntay. She is brave.

::: HUGS::: im sorry this happened. I hope you recover quickly.

Oh,I am so sorry. I am crying for you as I type :Cry::Cry: Rupert was such a young little guy and his story is heartbreaking. He brought you lots of joy and comfort at a time in your life when you needed it most and you were able to repay him by letting him go when he needed you to. He may have lived a short life but it was a fulfilled life and he left this world with many people loving and caring about him.:Adore:
RIP beautiful Rupert, you will not be alone as you cross the Rainbow Bridge, you have a whole family of sphynxs waiting for you to come and play.

I too am literally tearing up at work as i read this:Cry: I am soo sorry! i can not even imagine the pain and sorrow RIP RUPERT .. my thoughts are with you! and i agree.. he has a whole sphynx family waiting for him :BigSmile:

I am so sorry for your loss.

It's so hard to find the right words when the pain is still present in your heart. He will always be with you forever happy and healthy in your memories.

This was posted for me at another site... I don't know who wrote it, but I want to pass it on to you...

Dear Mom,

I’m just about to take a nap, for I’ve been running free.
I was chasing butterflies, and one small bumble bee.
I’ve rolled around in catnip, I’ve climbed high in a tree
And now I’ll rest all cuddled up with others just like me.

I’m in a truly lovely place, it’s right by Heaven’s gate.
I’m not alone, and I am told this is the place to wait.
I’ve told everyone about you, they said you won’t be late.
That though on earth long years will pass, I’ll meet you by the gate.

There’s a bridge we’ll cross together, it has a rainbow hue
And really it’s so pretty here, that all I miss is you.
So please don’t think about the things you did or didn’t do
It was my time to find the bridge, so please do not feel blue.

I’m sorry that I left so fast, without a kiss good-bye.
But I’ve enclosed a “head butt†and a slow blink of my eye.
Take care of all our family and tell them that I’ll try
To be the one that greets them first, when they come, by and by.

Love and thanks for being such a good mom,
your Rupert

That breaks my heart:Cry::Cry: I have lost pets also, and it is the hardest thing.

:Cry::Cry::Cry:I am so sorry for your loss, I avoid this forum mostly because
I can't take things like this. It doesn't have to be my loss.
It is just heart breaking no matter who's.
I can't even watch tv programs where animals are rescued and die anyway
or abused and starved. Or in a animal shelter. I just can't stand it.
I turn the tv even if it's a comercial. :Cry::Cry:
But one thing about it none of this was Rupert's life story:BigSmile:
He was so loved and taken such good care of, he may have had a short
one, but it was the best. :BigSmile: My prayers are with you, I know it
will take time to be able to go on, then he will always be in your heart.
MAY GOD BLESS YOU, STRENGTHEN YOU, AND COMFORT YOUR HEART.

I can hardly see to write with the tears in my eyes. All of us who love risk the pain of loss. I remember the line in Ghost....... the love you feel, you take it with you.
There is a lot of love following your little dear Rupert.

I'm so sorry you had to make such a heart wrenching decision. Just because it was the right thing to do, doesn't make it easier. It still sucks. Blessings to you and Rupert.

So sorry about Rupert, it broke my heart reading his story the other day and now seeing this makes it that much harder.

Angel, I just wanted to say that it's OK to feel sad, sick to your stomach, depressed, tearful, angry... it's natural to feel all those things right now. Those feelings are a testament to the love you shared with Poopy. You wouldn't be human if you didn't feel them.

But when you finish grieving for him you'll be able to smile when you remember the happy times you shared. I know it doesn't seem like that, at least not right now, but it does get better. And one day you'll have a new testament in your heart. One that says "a remarkable kitty named Rupert once shared my life and I'm so grateful for the love he gave me."

But please, never feel guilty. There's absolutely nothing you could have done to change the course of his illness. I'm certain Rupert is thankful that you ended his suffering. You gave him the biggest gift that love can give.

I'm so very sorry that Rupert was torn from this life. But you'll be together again one day.

There is no greater gift you could have given to Rupert than holding him in your arms while he crossed the rainbow bridge. You are all very brave.
So sorry.

I am so sorry to hear Rupert died!
You made a good decision, and were so brave to hold him and be with him as he went!
He is not gone though. You cant hold him or see him, which is horrible! But he's still right beside you, with you always, I really believe that!
Im sorry you didnt get more time with him. He was such a perfect, beautiful kitty! I will never forget his face! even though we never actually met, i feel like I knew him because his pictures expressed such a fantastic personality, and loving heart.

Honor his life by loving your other nakeds as unselfishly as you loved him. You are very brave. I am not a crier but this whole thing made me tear up. I really feel for you.

Lighting a candle for Rupert right now, and sending you tears and love.

Rupert got quite the send-off here. I lit a special candle for him on my mantle, and set it next to my favorite cat statue.

And forgot to blow it out before bed.

Got up this morning (two days later) and noticed the living room smelled wonderful. Then I remembered I had lit Rupert's candle. So, he got a full two-day tribute from our house straight to kitty heaven. :)

I was expecting, but dreading this post. It's so unfair that Rupert was taken away from you so soon. You certainly deserved many more years together. You took great care of him and put his needs first when it mattered most, which is very commendable. Cherish the wonderful memories that you have of him and please take care of yourself.
