Our Little Storm Crossed The Rainbow Bridge

[Laaaauren]

Hello everyone, I posted a few times on this forum about my beautiful boy Storm, who had been suffering with dental issues and at the time we needed advice because we’d never experienced something like that. We received a lot of tips and love for our little one and I truly believe that the advice we followed helped keep our boy going for a little while longer.

However, yesterday we made the heartbreaking decision to have our Storm put to sleep. Although he seemed to be improving he suffered from a prolapse and it was unfair to him to keep him going, as much as we wanted to. We did everything we could for our little one: late night syringe feeds, multiple vet visits, tried so many different foods, and two operations. We are absolutely devastated - he was the most gentle, sweet-natured boy we’ve ever had. He left behind his brother, Pebbles, who has been fussed over non-stop just to give him a little bit of company for now.

We’ve buried Storm and planted some daffodil bulbs by his grave that will hopefully bloom in a few months - a little bit of yellow for our little ray of sunshine that was Storm.

Oh I am so sorry for your loss. I too had to put my lovely Velvet to sleep 6 days ago. Even though you know it is the right thing to do it doesn't make the decision any easier. When you have battled to save them it makes it harder. Storm is now out of pain at the Rainbow Bridge, has his favourite food and is popcorning away. He still loves you and knows that you did your best to keep him with you but sometimes the call of the Rainbow Bridge is just too strong and they have to go.

I’m so sorry to hear about your loss too, thank you very much for the kind words. And I’m sure your little Velvet loves and appreciates everything you did.

Thank you for the support, I agree that he most certainly was a beautiful boy x

I'm so sorry to hear that you lost Storm. He looked ever so handsome! It sounds like you tried all you could to help him through his difficulties and despite that still came face to face with the dreaded necessary decision to show him the final kindness. I can tell it was a decision very much made with love

Rest in peace little Storm

This is so incredibly sweet, thank you! He really was such a handsome boy. Everything we did for Storm was out of love: every vet visit, every nighttime feed, every cuddle. Even, as you said, that final heartbreaking decision was done with his best interests in mind. He has left his little paw print etched on our hearts forever.
