• A tribute to Gwinnie

    From Dan Mahoney@21:1/5 to All on Fri Nov 6 14:03:28 2020
    Little baby Gwinnie, you had a rough start. Some uncaring idiot human
    dropped you and your sister at the emergency vet, but didn't bother
    telling the vet staff you were there. By the time the staff saw the
    cardboard box in which you had been dumped, your sisfur had crossed the
    Rainbow Bridge.

    You were in very rough shape, being only 3 weeks or so of age,
    hypothermic, and dehydrated, but the emergency vet did their best to
    stabilize you. The next morning they called the animal shelter, and I volunteered to drive out and pick you up.

    Since you were hypothermic, I drove with one hand in your carrier
    keeping you warm. I was encouraged when you squirmed around and meowed.
    When you arrived at the shelter's vet clinic their vets and vet techs
    did their absolute best to restore your health. Though I had only known
    you for 30 minutes or so, I was still devastated when I learned that
    your didn't even survive the day.

    I am so very sorry that your experience with humans was so horrible, but
    I'm also glad you also got to spend time with humans who loved you and
    cared for you. I know that you are now reunited with your sisfur, and
    you're both in healthy bodies, running and playing in the flowers.

    In the end, beautiful Gwinnie, you were loved and will be missed. Know
    peace, sweet girl.
