Quatsch's Last Day

I don't think I'll be able to talk about this much. I just wrote someone about it in an e-mail, so I decided to copy and paste it here. I don't want to think about it a lot because it was very traumatic for me, though I know I did the best thing.

Quatsch has been gone a little over a week now. It was very peaceful. I took her out to her favorite vet and vet assistant on Nov. 11th (Tuesday). It was a little before noon. I held her, hugged her lightly and petted her. I felt her shudder when the shot went into her. It was very difficult for me. I'd never had to do anything like that. It was actually very surreal. It didn't feel real for a long time.

I miss her a lot. I tried to put images in her head of grass for her to play in, canals for her to run up and down in, butterflies for her to chase. I also imagined her basking in the sunlight, lying on her back with her legs up in the air, begging for someone to rub her tummy :)

Quatsch, January, 2007. This was just a month after she had the amputation. I was so happy to see her playing again. This is what happens when I put catnip on a washcloth.

I love my baby!

I miss her so much!

Songs are fixed

I fixed the links for the songs on the right. They're songs that for different reasons I wanted to hear during this time, or that reminded me of the situation I'm going through.

Will update tonight

I'm working on fixing the two songs on the right that aren't working. I'll be adding more photos tonight, too.

Thank you to everyone who's supported me, including my mother, who cries every time she talks to me.
