Today is the worst day of my life, it is the day I bury my best friend. My baby girl Cheshire fell asleep in death last night and my world is absolutely shattered. She was very sick in the end with congestive heart failure but she was so strong right up till the end.

She was only 6 years old and had so much more life to live. But her poor little heart couldn’t go on and she went to sleep.

I wouldn’t trade a single day with her for anything and those of you who love your animals as much as I do will understand. I feel like my child died in my arms and there was nothing I could do to save her..

I got home from a get together and I was trying to get her to give her medicine like I do every night. But this time we both knew it was different. She waited until I got home so she could die in my arms, I take so much comfort in knowing I was able to be there for her in her last moments, the same way she was there for me everyday of her life. She was a precious gift from Jehovah God and I thank him everyday for giving her to me to take care of.

Words cannot express how absolutely devastated I am. Waking up this morning without her is the thing I have feared every since her doctors said she doesn’t have long to live, take her home and say goodbye. They told me that back in August and look what love did. I was given another 166 days to take care of her and I was able to say goodbye, but it’s never long enough. I would trade everything in the world to get her back.

I am absolutely broken, not only emotionally and mentally but also physically, because when she was taking her last breath and struggling for air she grabbed onto my eye and face with her claws and ripped me apart pretty good. I couldn’t care less about my eye or the pain I’m in, the fact that I was able to be there for her as she took her final breath is worth any scar.

Rest In Peace my baby girl Cheshire
