Our thoughts and prayers are with you and Flossie! I hope for you and her both that she does slip away to be with your Mother tonight...It is very hard either way, if she goes on her own or if you have to make that decision for her. But rest assured, if you have to have her put down, it is what she would ask of you. She has been your loyal friend all these years and now it is your turn to be loyal back to her. She has lived a long and good life and it is just time. I am gad you brought her inside. A bath would not hurt her at this point and would most likely make her feel more soothed. Warm some towels in the microwave and just wrap her and hold her when you are done...I would think it would certainly relax her and make her smell better all at the same time. God Bless you for caring for her and showing her mercy in her final hours. |
