Our sunshine girl, Eunice


Recommended Posts

Eunice is our sweet, sunshine girl. Always loving and our house guard from all neighborhood critters. We found out Friday she has high grade GI lymphoma, which is pretty aggressive in cats. We’re having in-home euthanasia done Tuesday in lieu of putting her through intensive chemotherapy and the stress of constant vet visits for maybe 2-3 more months. I absolutely cannot do that to this sweet girl.

I feel intense guilt, but cannot keep her here and in pain to assuage my guilt over not seeing the symptoms until too late.

Know that you are our one and only Eunice and will forever be in our hearts. Love you, my sunshine girl!

Lyrics changed for how I’ve sung this song to her:

You are my Cheun-Cheun, my only Cheun-Cheun
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know, dear Cheuny, how much I love you
Please don't take my Cheuny away
 
The other night dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and I cried
That last bit hits so hard as we approach her final days.

My dear, I am so sorry that this is happening to you and your sweet sunshine girl. Please know that our thoughts and hearts are with you as you face what lies ahead. Your Eunice is simply beautiful, and I know you'd give anything to keep her here with you, if only that were possible. I hope you can feel our collective arms around you . . . ❤️

I sang this to my daughter when she was a baby, then to my Arlie (dog), and now to Kodie.  They ARE our babies!  

I lost my Arlie to cancer, it was very hard and yet the last bit of time I got with him (2 months 10 days) was so special.

You and your Kitty are in my prayers.  Sending you both hugs.
