My little special precious girl Maggie ❤️! 4 Years Gone today 💔. Although I love Shayna and Jett and Zelig (RIP) with all my heart, I miss you and Lulu with all my heart as well. We heard an extra little pitter pattering this morning.
Maggie came to me at just 7 months old. She came from a very neglected situation, but her life was saved with emergency surgery and she found her way to my life. It was a bit of a rough start as she was sick with a few things and had to live in a large cage in my house until she got better and was able to integrate into the house with Lulu. She was just the sweetest, happiest little girl, full of personality. Maggie lived with me for 13 years and although I wish I had her longer, our bond was amazing, like no other pet I ever had. Her and Lulu were with me during some of the worst and best times in life. She always slept on my head or had her head on me somehow.
Unfortunately, as many of you remember, she developed cancer. They gave her 3 months to live, but she gave me 6 months. Since we were pretty much still in Covid lock-down I was just home caring for her. We had our little routine for her daily meds and supplements and made our little weekly trips to the hospital for her treatments. Towards the end I started to hand feed her with a spoon and she really loved that. I gave my all to care for her, and she gave me her all to fight, until she couldn't.
The last photo is from her last day alive. She really didn’t feel well and she laid on the coach with me all night while I watched TV, her paws touching my hand. We stayed like that almost all night. The next day I just knew it was time. You can never really prepare yourself for that day you have to make that decision. But it is the ultimate love. That last ride to the hospital together was so hard. After she was gone, I couldn’t even breathe or contain myself. I’m sure a lot of you know this feeling all to well. I miss my little girl so, so, so very much. But I know our time together was very special and we gave each other a lot. Your paws are imprinted in my heart forever...........RIP my sweet girl 🐾
