Hi pals. Well, our big sister Finley is not doing too good. We think she's going blind. She is having a harder and harder time walking and standing. And a lot of times, she yelps and screams.
Da mommas are not shure if it is pain or dementia. Probably a combination.
She still likes to eat her food, but that's about it. Sometimes she wants a pat, but sometimes she doesn't because she hurts.
We all luv her and we hate seeing her hurt.
Da mommas have said Finley are probably going to be making her trip to join Whitley in da Land of Infinite Steaks and Bacons soon.
I know my blog are usually happy and silly, but dis are not either one of those. But we didn't want anyone to be caught off guard or surprised when Finley goes. She's over 15 and she never really recovered from her hip dislocation last spring. Da mommas luv her tons and have been trying to keep her comfortable, but lately she's even been having a hard time standing when they carry her outside to do her business. It sucks, we wish she could have had a better end. But she will get a big send-off with steak and lots of luv.
I'm so sorry to hear this, but it's such a kindness to ease her suffering. Sending love and prayers for all the family.

DeletePoor Finley! Da Mommas will know the exact right time. I tend to be very stoic about these things, but the only really important thing is not to let her hurt anymore.

DeleteGhostwriter wanted to let you know that her little lady patient at the nursing home, Flossie, who's always thrilled to see your adorable Westie faces, loves Finley the best, and calls her the grandma. She's sending you, along with all of us, lots of hugs and kisses. We hope Finley can be as comfortable as possible until she crosses the bridge.
ReplyDeleteFank you. We want to do a few more special things for her, like a steak dinner.
DeleteWe are sorry Finley is not doing well, We send purrayers and POTP to help her as much as possible.
