Gizmo passed away at about 4:15 this afternoonand now sleeping a very peaceful sleep. Mom
took him to the vet at 11:20 and left him there
until the vet could do a sonogram on him. His
urine test was not good and his blood test was
fairly positive but the creatine reading was
kind of high. When the vet felt him she could
feel a hard mass where the kidney was suppose
to be. The other vet in the office could feel it too.
They thought it was the kidney but the sonogram
proved it was a tumor. His weight went down to
5.3 pounds and he was in a very weakened
condition and might not have made it through
surgery. The decision made by Mom is that he
has been through enough and put him down.
The vet and Mom discussed it for a length of
time. Mom really didn't want to do it but
decided it was in his best interest.
Mom is going to miss rubbing his fuzzybelly. He is the only one who would let
her do it.
Gizmo was a real good sport letting Momput the Santa outfit on him this past
Christmas.
Gizmo loved boxes like the rest of us.
He also loved to go outside in our yard atour other place and walk around and played
like we did.
Patches, Cleo and I will miss him a whole bunch
but I think Mom will miss him the most.
Gizmo would have been fifteen years old
this month. 105 in cat years. Don't know if
we will be celebrating our (Patches, Cleo and I)
our birthdays this month. It won't be the same
without Gizmo.
Mom was also suppose to celebrate her third
Blogaversary July 9th.

Oh Casper I am so sorry to hear about Gizmo going to the bridge today. May all your memories give you comfort of days gone by when Gizmo was young and happy. Life with any kitty is precious...I hope this poem makes your day a little more comforted:
How can I bear to lose you, my precious gentle one,
To know that you will not be here when my day is done?
So much of my heart, my love, have I given up to you,
How then can I stand the pain now that your life is through?
My sorrow overwhelms me, the tears so freely flow,
How can I carry on my life, with a heart that's laden so?
Then the answer comes to me from the stillness in my soul.
Remembering the love we shared will help to make me whole.
I'll hold you in a special place, so deep within my heart
And in these loving memories we'll never be apart.
You will not be so far away, your presence I will feel.
I'll wrap myself in your memory and so very slowly I will heal.
The years we shared, the little joys, the laugher and the tears
My love for you will never die, but strengthen with the years
So fare you well, my precious love, I gently let you go
And pray to all the Gods there be that you will always know
I loved you so, my little one, that love will never cease
I gave you warmth, I gave you love, and now I give you peace.

So so sorry to hear about this. It makes me very sad that sweet Gizmo passed away. I can only imagine the hurt you all must be feeling in your hearts right now after the passing away of such an adorable kitty.
Gizmo lived a long and healthy life and you all played a part in giving him a happy and loving home. Time is the best healer and I hope that with its passage the pain lessens to an extent. Sending you many many hugs and lots of love. Praying for peace and comfort for all of you in this difficult time.

Gizmo had a good, long life and was well loved. No kitty can ever ask for more.

We were sad to hear about Gizmo but know that he will find many friends on the other side of the Bridge to show him all the bestest catnip plots and who gives the best tummy rubs. Mommy says that Thomas, who went to the Bridge last fall, will show Gizmo how to be cute and then get away with all sorts of things.
Snuggles and purrs to all who will miss him,
