Sam 28 months

[mamarat]

Sam was PTS today. He was operated on in Oct. but his cancer came back. Yesterday he started bleeding and Metacam did not seem to help his pain. My beautiful hoodie.

[Willow Bean]

I'm very, very sorry for you loss, mamarat... He looks like he was a truely special boy! Play hard little man...

 

[lilspaz68]

Your "blotched boy"

I am so sorry Mamarat.

How is Jevy doing without his brother? Adia has a tumour as well, and Asha my temperamental one is in fine health...of course. :doh:

Are you coping with all the losses okay? I wish I was there to hug you.

 

[SQ]

So very sorry for your loss.
Sam :heart: looks like a wonderful boy.

take care

 

[Melissa]

I'm so sorry. What a sweet face on him.

 

[LA]

I'm so sorry Mama and Mo.

 

[morats]

Jevy misses his big brother. They where always together. Sam was Jevy's bodygard. Sam fought to the end, damn cancer. Play hard at the bridge with your little brother Adam :heart: :tearful:

 

[Melissa's ZOO]

I am so sorry for you loss. Sam was a handsome hoodie man. RIP. :cry:

Sam was the alpha, keeping the Wildthings in check. The Wildthings would run after Jevy, banning him to the bottom of the cage in his box, with 2 "guarding" him. Sam would walk down slowly and place himself next to Jevy, and the Wildthings would run away. I'm a little bit scared of what might happen now in the cage.

As for Jevy, he has never been sick, although often had sneezies but meds didn't do anything for him. I've given him Benadryl and that helps. Hope your girl's tumor is very slow growing. At 28 months, it's always harder to make the decision to operate or not.

Sam cost me 700 dollars and it gave him a few more months. And to them, a month is a long time.

 

[lilspaz68]

I found my domestics didn't do well with my Wildlings. Eventually I removed all the domestics, one by one. When I found their mom Rennie bleeding in a corner I knew it was time for an All Wildling cage.

Would Jevy intro to another group maybe?

:sad-p:

 

[mamarat]

I was thinking about it but I'm waiting to see how things develop in the cage. It would be hard for Jevy to be away from Lollipop, she's the mom in the cage and they all go to her when they're sick.

Awww, yeah I have my fingers crossed for him!

 

[mamarat]

Thank you, Shelagh, and everyone. The last couple of months have been heartbreaking.

 

[Moon]

Poor Jevy to be without his Sam. I'm sorry guys.

 

[Fidget]

I'm sorry :cry: You've had so much lately (again)... I'm sorry for the loss of your beloved little boy, and I'm sorry too for the loss of your peacekeeper and what it means for the group, especially Jevy. And of course for you & Morats who really need & deserve to get comfort from seeing your other kids happy at this time to ease your pain.
Your little Sam was obviously a special spirit to keep peace so peacefully. Earth needs more Sams, not less.
