He Waited For Me

by Liz .........................................

Boris was diagnosed with kidney failure. His kidney did not fully fail, or the vet told me. Perhaps with treatment, he would regain SOME of his functioning back.

I force-fed my baby and I gave him liquids (feline dialysis). I was determined to make him well again.

On his last morning, I was force-feeding him and he looked up at me as if to say "No more mommy" I promised Boris I wouldn't give him anymore and gave him his meds. Before I left for work, I told Boris not to do anything without me. I kissed him and wished him a good day.

When I returned home from work, Boris was right where I left him and he looked up to see who was coming in the door. I told Boris that I had to hang up my coat. I ran and scooped Boris in my arms and his head began to drop and his breathing became labored. I tried to keep his life inside of him. I rocked him and told him I loved him.

When I brought him to the vet, I thanked him for all the good times he gave me and all the love he showed me. I will never, ever forget
Boris. His sister, Natasha and his brother, Sonny survive him.

Boris will remain in my heart always!

Comments would be appreciated by the author, Liz
