Motley is No Longer Suffering

At a little after two this afternoon she left peacefully. They first gave her a sedative, and we petted her (at one time there were four of us doing this) while it took effect. For a while she was actually purring and snoring at the same time. Then came the second injection, and she was gone.

Here's a photo of her, on one of her favorite perches, shortly after she was diagnosed, and before she became visibly ill:

Will people let me know if the image is actually behind the cut? It shows that in the editing page, but when I click on the link I get the post *with* full image.

Yep behind the cut.

I was so sorry to hear this, but glad you didn't try to prolong her suffering.

*hugs* You did the right thing, but it's still hard. RIP Motley.

I'm really sorry - but you gave her a good life, and did the right thing. RIP, Motley. You were a very pretty kitty.
