Guest guest Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 On Putting Your Pet To Sleep by Nori Slater, RN My sweet black velvet face Angel cat, friend for 16 years forecasted her intention to go. She had been slowing down. I got her stairs to put by the bed so she could get up there. As time went by she held court on a dog bed in the living room; right by the front door. A week and a half ago she took off her collar. I put it back on, but thought, " she never takes off her collar " . A new cat came to live with us because my coworker was moving and going to put " The Dude " in the pound. I felt an odd connection to him, though we'd not physically met. The Dude pretty much stayed in my office because Codie, my other cat that was Angel's companion, and Woody the Chihuahua, yet to be welcoming. It seemed overnight that Angel looked very thin. We used to call her the " round mound " because she was fat with the most marvelous pink belly. Sunday she looked thin. Monday she took her collar off and I could not find it. Monday night I lay with her and loved her with every fiber and vibration of my being. " Stay as long as you like " , I said to her. Tuesday she vomited every time she ate. She was staying more and more on her red suede dog bed, I allowed her to be. Wednesday morning I decided I would take her to the Vet after work. I kissed her and told her how much I loved her before I left. Wednesday my coworkers kept asking me what was wrong. I was very quiet. My awareness was pulled to Angel who sent me her intention through a very clear signal. My gut, my solar plexus was unsettled. I wondered if she was going to transition before I got home. I could not wait to go home. As I entered my neighborhood a black bird fashioned its tail into an arrow and flew right in front of the center of my windshield down the road and into my driveway. It was as if it was leading, heralding what was to be. Angel looked thin, weak and as if she was seeing the other side when the door opened. On her red suede throne I realized that The Dude came out of my office and spent the entire night before with Angel. They were each in their chosen places facing each other; she held court with him. I think she hand picked him. Up until this moment I knew Ange was happy, comfortable and not in pain. Now, holding her, just picking her up, made her uncomfortable. When she jumped down from the sofa she made a noise that alerted me that her body was in pain. I began crying then, scooped her up and drove to the Emergency Vet. She hated the Vet. This night she was comfortable there. The ladies at the desk were angels in human dress. The Vet was an angel as well. Still crying with out giving a rip about what anyone thought, I wanted to get it out so my vibration would be love when Angel transcended. Lab tests and X-rays confirmed what Angel had been telling me. I'm a nurse, one look at the x-ray and I cut the Vet's explanation short, " let's just let her go " I said. He was in total agreement. It was time for her to joyfully jump into non-physical. I asked for some time alone with her. My beautiful black cat sat on the exam table on a yellow baby blanket with lambs on it. She looked me in the eye. " Are you ready to go? " I asked. With lock on eye contact, she began to purr. " Are you happy to go? " I queried. She then lay down and began to purr louder. " OK, I get it " , I told her. " Will you come back to me soon? " I requested. Our eye contact was that of the feeling of Eternity. I gave the sign to the ladies at the front desk and the sweet young Vet came in with magical energy medicine to help her to the other side. I pressed my face into her fur, as I have so many times during our 16 years together. I told her over and over in English and French that I love her (I took to speaking French to her when I was in Nursing School...it was our special thing) I kissed her pink belly and felt nothing but pure Free Flowing Energy. She was where she wanted to be. My physical being has cried and felt the absence of her physical body, but my dear friend reminded me that when my vibration is lighter I am able to FEEL that Angel is still with me. So for that result, I am so inspired to think of things that make me feel better. It is then that I FEEL her. I am so celebrating the most precious relationship that Angel and I had and STILL have... .. . . my sweet Velvet Face Angel. I found her collar when I got home from the Vet ____________.
