Aw this wasn't unexpected but so sad anyway. We adopted 3 year old Miffy in January and not long after that the vet found a very big tumour in her dewlap, expected to cause problems. The vet said she might live a year. Earlier this evening Miffy seemed to have a sudden stroke or something, lost movement on one side, was thrashing about. The vet and I both felt given her history that putting her to sleep would be a kindness. Miffy was so sweet. She didn't seem to know to wheek for food, and today she was so happy copying Shadow wheeking for food. Look I can do it now! 😊 She loved her daily loxicom and seemed happy to the end.
Kinda weird, brought her home for Shadow to say goodbye and the lower third of her tummy is shaved 🤔
Well Miffy, it was a pleasure knowing you for this short time, hope to see you again 🌈

I am so sorry to hear your sad news. Miffy will have had a wonderful life for those last few months with you. I hope you can take some comfort from that as you grieve for her.
RIP sweet Miffy.
 
It sounds like you gave her a very loving home. She was lucky to have landed with you.
 
I’m sending you big hugs, such a sad time and a shock when you were least expecting. You gave Miffy the very best life and she will have known just how much loved her x
Sleep tight little Miffy 🌈
 
So sorry for your loss.
We are never fully prepared for such loss.
You gave Miffy a wonderful life full of happy todays.
Be gentle with yourself as you grieve
