Prayers Please for a Very Good Cat

May i ask for comforting prayers for Tuck-Tucks and his owners.  Tuck-Tucks has been a faithful companion through many changes in his owners lives and takes his job of Stress Buster very seriously.  The old boy is nineteen years old with heart disease but takes all his medications like a  champ.  He's just today lost the feeling in his hind foot.  He's not in pain but can't feel his foot.  He's still eating and using his low sided litterbox.   He can still walk but is using that leg just to stablise himself.  That cat Never complanes.  The Vet added plavix to his treatments today but also has made it clear they need to be prepaired to do what is best for the little guy. 

Tuck-Tucks is the best cat in the world ( and he's not even My cat).  Please say a little prayer that he has a comfortable weekend with his family.   Many thanks.

Prayers for Tuck-Tucks and an inspirational prayer for his humans:

 

IF IT SHOULD BE

If it should be that I grow weak
And pain should keep me from my sleep,
Then you must do what must be done,
For this last battle cannot be won.

You will be sad, I understand.
Don't let your grief then stay your hand.
For this day, more than all the rest,
Your love for me must stand the test.

We've had so many happy years.
What is to come can hold no fears.
You'd not want me to suffer so;
The time has come -- please let me go.

Take me where my need they'll tend,
And please stay with me till the end.
Hold me firm and speak to me,
Until my eyes no longer see.

I know in time that you will see
The kindness that you did for me.
Although my tail its last has waved,
From pain and suffering I've been saved.

Please do not grieve -- it must be you
Who had this painful thing to do.
We've been so close, we two, these years;
Don't let your heart hold back its tears.

Wishing an easy time for Tuck-Tucks in coming days. If it's deemed best for him, may he have a peaceful passage over the Rainbow Bridge.  

 

May his people find solace in that they gave him a good life and loving care all the way to his old age. it's hard to part with the goodness our pets give to us. His memories will eventually be a comfort after the tears give way to every day life. 

I pray for Tuck-Tucks and his family to face their fates with strength.

Re: Prayers Please for a Very Good Cat

@candys mine   I will say a prayer for Tuck-Tucks and his family. It sounds like his time might be soon.  If so, it sounds like they'll do what's best for him.  It seems like they have a caring Vet, too.  I can tell from your post that they love him very much.  I've never been fortunate enough to have a cat live to be 19.  What a blessing that must be.
