Mylo seemed subdued, almost like he knew why he was there and that he was ready to let go. His little frail body lay on a blanket on the metal table. His head still up. The vet gave him a sedative to relax him and within 10 minutes it had shown it's effect on Mylo. His tiny head slowly drooped down to where his nose was touching the blanket he lay on. My spouse and I continuously stroked Mylo's head, neck and paws. The vet came back in to administer the leathal needle. The vet checked Mylo for a heart beat and told us Mylo had passed. My spouse and I stayed with Mylo privately in the room. We said our goodbyes and gave Mylo a kiss on his head as that was my favourite place to kiss him. It was difficult as we walked out of the room and I looked back at his motionless body. It hurt to leave him there. When we got home we talked a lot about Mylo. I cleaned out his litter box and put his dishes in the dishwasher. I slept with the blanket that I took him to the vet in. It was difficult for us to fall asleep. Even though I knew what we did was right for Mylo because of the state he was in, I just wanted him back. In the end, I tried my best to help him. I loved him and cared for him like he was my child. >From: Kelly L >Reply-To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org >To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org >Subject: Mylo >Date: Wed, 31 Jan 2007 17:23:33 -0800 > >Chris, I am so very sorry you had to Mylo go, What a wonderful >compassionate thing you have done for your baby.
