With Valentines Day tomorrow, something to be mindful of 🫶 (can’t tell you how many cats we’ve seen on social media going to the ER from Lilies)

10/20/2023

Be with your pets as they die, if you truly love them, you’ll see them ALL the way through this life. You must show up for them, especially when it crushes your heart to do so.

Pets, it turns out, also have last wishes before they die, but only known by veterinarians who put old and sick animals to sleep. Twitter user Jesse Dietrich asked a vet what was the most difficult part of his job.
The specialist answered without hesitation that it was the hardest for him to see how old or sick animals look for their owners with the eyes of their owners before going to sleep. The fact is that 90 % of owners don't want to be in a room with a dying animal. People leave so that they don't see their pet leave. But they don't realize that it's in these last moments of life that their pet needs them most.
Veterinarians ask the owners to be close to the animals until the very end. "It's inevitable that they die before you. Don't forget that you were the center of their life. Maybe they were just a part of you. But they are also your family. No matter how hard it is, don't leave them.
Don't let them die in a room with a stranger in a place they don't like. It is very painful for veterinarians to see how pets cannot find their owner during the last minutes of their life. They don't understand why the owner left them. After all, they needed their owner’s consolation.
Veterinarians do everything possible to ensure that animals are not so scared, but they are completely strangers to them. Don't be a coward because it's too painful for you. Think about the pet. Endure this pain for the sake of their sake. Be with them until the end."

This beautiful human was our FIRST official cat customer/ kitten home and she’s been an integral part of our journey the whole way through. Last week, she also delivered our final boy safely to his new home. She was there at the beginning and here at the end. Our Cattery is now officially concluded. I’ll have more words at some point, but, for today, I’ll just say I’m THANKFUL beyond belief for the last 7 years. I’ve met the most incredible human beings I’ll ever be lucky enough to know… and my heart is full 🫶 We love you lady! Thank you 🙏

Bonded pair available for adoption. These two Queens are the entire reason our Cattery has been a possibility. We are seeking a home who will treat them like the absolute royalty they are 💕 PRIVATE MESSAGE for inquiries.

Morla | 5 years | Brown Patched Tabby | Lazy Lap kitty extraordinaire, she’s talkative and loves to plant herself in laps! She doesn’t love being brushed and her coat mats easily. She’ll need extra grooming appointments or patient, short brushing sessions at home daily to keep her comfy.
AND
Artax | 5 years | Blue Classic Tabby
A sweet and elegant quiet kitty. She wants to be near you and demands attention with persistent head butts ☺️ She has a very full coat that requires the same dedicated attention any mature Maine C**n coats requires. Artax doesn’t like too much commotion. I’d prefer a home with no other cats, calm dogs (if any) and older children (as opposed to young ones). These girls will do best in a home where the humans are home a lot.
