R.I.P Lucy Lu
Jul. 22nd, 2009 10:54 amSo yesterday Lucy, our (or ang's to be exact), crazy cat who lived with us for 16.5 years very sadly had to be put down.
She had a tumour on her back which was causing her much pain, but at first the vet wasn't 100% sure if it was that, or if anti-inflamatories would fix the problem. she wasn't getting any better, so, yesterday, she was finally put out of her pain.
Lucy was always so head-strong, much more than my cat Molly (who's fate I don't know about either, as she's now extremely skinny and toilets all over the house). Lucy was always the adventurous one, whereas Molly was scared of her own shadow!
In the end though, lucy developped dementia, we believe, as she use to walk around the house wailing for all she was worth. Molly then thought it was a good idea to follow in her footsteps, so there were the two cats, wailing and wailing as if they were being totally neglected!
I always relate the story of valentines day in 93 when we got home from school. Mum, who had given us chocolates in our lunch boxes every year on this day, had told us she had another present for us. Then, as Ang was given her supposed chocolate, i wondered why she was so excited over it? I mean, as I say, only I should get so excited over such things. But then, as Mum handed me my little ball of fur, i knew what it was all about.
Both cats were sick for ages for some reason. they came from the RSPCA, but who knows why they were sick.
Molly and Lucy had great fun picking on our then-10-year old cat Zoe; poor thing! (I unfortunately can't remember when she was put down, but it was after we finished year 12).
Lucy was a funny cat. She loved being smacked on the buttox and having her tail pulled; no kidding at all! She always had the loudest purr known to man, .. I mean cat! Lol
I will always remember my Lucy lu, whom I always accused of being in the sky with diamonds; guess it's true now! R.I.p!
