Meghan
11/18 Meghan was rescued by a kind man when she was trying to escape a dog. He
took her to his vet and was going to try to help her find a home. Then she tested
Leukemia positive.
With the help of several people, she got to ride in first class with Davica and was flown
to BCR. She is a very nice girl, who loves to play.

Dear Supporters,
It is with a very heavy heart that we share with you all that our sweet Meghan
has passed over the rainbow bridge. We noticed that she was reluctant to eat
this past Sunday and due to her licking her lips, we thought it was maybe
nausea. So we gave her some medication to help with that and also a little bit
of pain medication just in case her stomach was upset. The next day, she
seemed slightly better and even jumped down for breakfast. When staff
noticed her hiding in the corner on the very top of a kuranda looking as if she
was head pressing, we checked her out and tried getting her to walk around.
Meghan was wobbly in her back legs and even had trouble jumping onto a
kuranda. We immediately took her to the vet where she has stayed since then.
Our vet did in house blood work and it revealed that her kidneys were angry.
She was immediately put on IV fluids, antibiotics, and other medication. On
Tuesday she brightened up and was no longer wobbly. The new blood work
showed that her kidney values were even worse despite her perking up. The
vet and I wanted 72 hours of antibiotics and support to be in her system
before any decisions were made. On Wednesday, she had an ultrasound done
but there were no masses. UA was also given and findings showed her
kidneys are no longer filtering. This morning we ran blood work again.. She
is now severely anemic and her kidneys are shutting down. We were fighting
for her as hard as we could because she had a fighting spirit. She showed
great strength but today was the day. Even though she seemed better her body
was failing her her fast. I held her as she crossed the rainbow bridge in peace
while she could still hold her head up to receive chin scratches and enjoy the
comfort of a lap.
Meghan came to us back in November of 2018 after a kind man rescued her
from a dog and was even flown first class to us. Since then, she has known
nothing but love and the most amazing support from you guys and the BCR
community. Having leukemia, we were prepared to have a shorter amount of
time with her. Nonetheless, Meghan lived out her time with us and made us
smile every day. Meghan loved her meal times. If another cat was eating from
a bowl that she wanted, she would sneakily grab the bowl and pull it closer to
her with her paw. Meghan also loved anything cheesy. Whenever we would
have pizza parties, Meghan always needed a small piece of pizza. Butt
scratches were her favorite as well as cuddling with her roomies. Chester was
one of her favorites to cuddle with and after he passed, she would often
cuddle with Peanut and Orange. Meghan and Chester will no doubt be
reuniting for a cuddling session. Meghan will truly be missed dearly by all
who got to know her. We can all find great peace in knowing that she was
loved and had a safe place to call home until it was her time to pass over the
rainbow bridge.
I am so sorry,
Sam
