I am writing this in great sadness, my beloved 9 and a half year old
Tiberius was put to sleep yesterday (I couldn't bring myself to type this
until now).  He had lost control of his legs and his bladder, the vet
suspected a spinal growth but I didn't want an autopsy done, because I
wanted him buried whole.  Dignity for Tiberius even in death.  He was
given anaesthetic gas before the injection so he wouldn't feel anything.
 
Sandee, he will be bringing a soft tiger toy, a yellow soft monkey, a polar
fleece and a teeshirt, so he will probably need assistance to drag all of
these to his new place at the bridge.  Please can you introduce him to the
others, because he is my first baby to cross the bridge, and he won't know
anyone.  He is a little hoon, loving to ride in cars and on motorbikes, I
hope the bridge has these facilities for him.  He loves hot chocolate,
raisins, baby food, schnitzel and spaghetti bolognaise.  Please make sure
he knows that his mummy and daddy miss him very much, and mummy didn't
sleep very well last night without his warmth next to her in bed.
 
Felicity, Savage and Pogo also send their love.  Tibby darling, you will
be loved and remembered forever.
 
I feel for all of you out there with sick or angel fuzzies,
Meghan
