Our Gentle Nici joins his beloved Sparkles at the Bridge

Jaypot

Mama Doe
On Tuesday 8th March at 7.30pm our sweet and gentle little boy Nici rejoined his beloved Sparkles at Rainbow Bridge :cry: :cry:
On the day that we lost our beautiful Bobby and Waggly-cat, Nici had gone in for a dental - it was found that he had a terrible abscess in the jaw and Sally the vet operated but told us that the chances where slim.
Nici had been such a good boy, he was letting us clean the abscess, he was eating well but the weight was still falling off him - we took this as a bad sign :cry:
On the Tuesday he would not eat or drink, he was given painkiller but still no improvement :( Whilst I was holding him while John cleaned out his abscess I found a really hard and large lump under Nici's throat :cry: We knew then that the abscess had spread and turned bony - we also knew that our little boy was suffering :cry: We phoned the vet and Sally was still there - I hoped so much that something could be done but deep in my heart I knew that this was the end :cry: :cry: I held Nici close and told him that we loved him with all of our hearts - I told him that if the pull of Sparkles was too much then we would understand :cry: It was breaking my heart and although I tried so hard not to cry in front of him I couldn't help it :cry: The tears where falling onto Nici but each tear from me was representing a kiss. I cuddled my lovely white gentle boy and kissed his head again and again - but gently as I didn't want to hurt him. John had to take him from me as I couldn't part with him :cry: I just couldn't :cry: :cry: :cry:
John was so upset and was crying buckets as well - we love the boy so much what else could we do? John took him to Sally and she was so shocked at the amount of weight that he had lost - she felt the abscess and the hard lump under his throat and said that nothing could be done - she said that the abscess had spread and was now pressing on his windpipe and he was unable to swallow as well :cry: John asked her if there was anything that we could do - anything at all? She was so upset when she said that the kindest thing would be to let him go - even if we had brought him back home for the night we would have still had to take him the next morning and he would have suffered overnight :cry: :cry: We couldn't do that to our lovely sweet boy so John held him and told him that our Nici would always be with us - that our Nici would always be our Nici and that we would love him forever.
Sally then let him go and let John stay with him - John talked to Nici for a long time and then left to come home where we both broke down :cry:
We know that you are with the love of your life again now Nici, your Sparkles meant everything to you and even though you where such a brave boy when she went to the Bridge the love you had for one another was so strong that you needed to be together again. I hope that Sparkles made a lovely big burrow and got to know all the other buns there - and that when the time came I pray that Sparkles came and took your paw and together you went to the Bridge - never to be parted again.
We love you Nici, we always will - you where such a poppet and so very sweet and gentle. Thank you for choosing us to be your mummy and daddy - it was us that where honoured and we will always be your mummy and daddy.
Tell the rest of the Hairy Mob that we love and miss them dear boy, and know that you, our darling, will be missed forever. When we all join up again we will hug you all so much and I will give my brave boy a special kiss for helping Billy the way that you did.
Until we meet again our baby boy, run free in the eternal sunshine and enjoy all those kisses and cuddles off your beloved Sparkles.
All our love always, from Mummy, Daddy and the rest of the Hairy Mob xxxx
