Oh Barb -- how sad! But she was loved, and she had the best life she
could have had under the circumstances, and your Mom and Dale will be blessed
for it. Hugs to everyone.
Goodnight, sweet Lucky.......

It is with a heavy heart that I have to let you know that little Lucky
Girl is at the Bridge now. Mom and Dale took her to the vet yesterday
because she was wheezing, lethargic, not eating and her eyes had
started to get goopy. The vet estimated her age at about 8 weeks (her
teeth and leg length I'm supposing) and said that he couldn't vaccinate her
because she was too sick. He gave them some ointment for her eyes and
sent her home with them. BTW, Lucky charmed every last one of the people
at the vet clinic - everybody was fussing over her
![]()
. She
died some time in the night; Mom thinks it was early on because rigor was
starting to leave her little limbs and there were a few whiffs of
decomposition. They're having her funeral this afternoon so Dale's
grandson Riley (who bonded amazingly with little Lucky) can have that step to
aid in closure. He's hurti! ng something awful - Mom said he's been
crying since they told him she'd died. Well, to be fair, Mom and Dale
have been crying off and on all morning too - Lucky was a special little fluff
ball. Mom was saying that Lucky wasn't so lucky after all, but I told
her she definitely was. They gave her a loving home for the last little
bit of her life and she knew loving people and died safe and warm. She
was just too tiny and had had too many stresses on her little body to have
anything left to fight with.
Thanks for being here you guys - I love you all!!
p.s. Belinda, I don't know her FeLV status so just put her on the
negative list
