Yoda was a scraggly 6-toed kitten my son brought home in 1993. DS left
home long ago,
but Yoda stayed. He was so named because he had huge ears and a pointy
face. When
you folded his ears down, he looked for all the world like the Star
Wars character.
He'd been sick for months, and I knew when I got up this morning it
was "time." He was
clearly suffering and I already knew the vet's bag of tricks was used
up. Yoda was old,
his organs were old, and they were failing him. I took him
to the vet to be euthanized. The literal definition of euthanasia is
"good death." And I have
to say, it was the best euthanasia I have ever witnessed. In life
Yoda was a most
pampered feline. His death was extraordinarily peaceful and calm.
Every cat should be
so lucky to die with dignity, with love, the best drugs money can buy,
and snoring on
the arm of someone who really loved him.
I just am missing that cat already something fierce. After seventeen
years, I am not sure
I can quilt without Yoda.

I am so very sorry Sherry. How lucky Yoda was to find
a good and loving home. How lucky for you he was such
a fine pal.
Big hugs,
Taria and all the furry ones here.
