We are sad to announce that the sanctuary experienced another loss yesterday. Our sweet grandma Puddle (10yr kitty) has crossed the rainbow bridge. We are beyond devastated and this has been extremely difficult timing, as we are still grieving the loss of Sugar last week.
Animal rescue is hard and it’s weeks like this that make it very hard to continue. We are trying to keep our heads up but the reality is we are emotionally and physically burnt out.
Puddle was the SMALLEST cat we have ever seen at only 3.5lbs. Everyone who met her fell in love. She was like a teddy bear, and loved to be carried around. She went up for adoption for a period of time, but we quickly realized how bonded she was to her mom, grandma Suki (15yr kitty). After seeing their special connection, we decided to make them apart of our forever kitty crew, so they could stay together forever.
Puddle and Suki were always found lying on top of each other and sunbathing together. They were the cutest old lady duo. Puddle also had a close connection to our sanctuary grandpa cat, Mr Bones. Often times, we found these three in what we referred to as a cuddle puddle. It was the cutest thing to see!
Puddle was diagnosed with stage 1 kidney disease back in March. Unfortunately, the disease ended up progressing way faster than we were anticipating and our goodbye had to come sooner than we were hoping for.
We miss you sweet girl. We know Miss Sugar was waiting to greet you ❤️
