<DIV>Hello everyone,</DIV>
<DIV>Just wanted to share with you that our beloved Mick was helped cross the
Bridge to doggy heaven this afternoon at 2:30 p.m. Mick was thought to be
16 years young. He enjoyed a good happy full life and had been with
me for 13 good years ever since he was adopted and moved in with
me. In the last months, Mickey was suffering from was believed to
be kidney and heart failure. In his last days, Mickey was unable to
keep any of his prescription dog food and fluids down. He tired so hard to
keep running, playing, climbing steps, and enjoying life but you could see
the pain and sickness in lovable face. I would carry him up and down
the stairs and carry him in and outside so he could sit outside in the wonderful
sun that he loved so much. He just didn't have the strength to climb the steps
anymore so he could sleep next to me like he had done for so many years. Our
carpets are so soiled that they will need to be cleaned or replaced but he
didn't mean to mess and dirty them up and would already give me his sad look
that said that he was sorry. This afternoon he sat so peaceful while I
gave him his last bath. We would of preferred that he had crossed the
bridge himself but we just can't let him continue to
suffer. Please give all your pets an extra hug for us today and help
us celebrate the long life that Mickey Mouse enjoyed. We are
missing Mickey so much.</DIV>
