Goodbye Winter

Just two months ago we said goodbye to Elkei. Sadly, this weekend we had to say goodbye to Winter as well. Everything seemed fine on Saturday morning when she woke Tim up to go outside. She was 17 years old and she had definitely slowed down, but we never expected this at this time.

We left or a few hours Saturday night and returned home that night and found her lying on the floor totally unresponsive. She would try to lift her head but couldn't and her breathing seemed labored. Fortunately, she didn't seem to be in any pain.

Tim put her by his bed and watched her throughout the night. Finally, at about 5 o'clock Sunday morning she had gotten worse and we couldn't stand to see her like that anymore. So, Tim made the decision to take her to the vet and have her put to sleep. We were fortunate to find out that the same vet we already used also was an Emergency vet with a Dr. in house 24 hours. Sunday morning around 6:30 we said our final goodbye to "Wee-Wee".

Hopefully, Elkei was there to greet her when she crossed over and they are running around playing and having fun again.

We love and miss you Winter and especially miss you and the way you "talked" to us!
