Farewell, Sophie

Sophie in front, Shelby in back
Sophie
I posted about Sophie and Shelby four times this year (4/12/15, 6/14/15, 6/26/15 & 7/1/15). Unfortunately, Sophie was struck down suddenly yesterday, and passed away within a mile of the veterinarian's office while on route.   It was a seizure, which they attribute to a blood clot.  She heard loving words and felt loving hands as she left this world.

Paws For The Cause cared for these two all of their lives, and will continue to search for Shelby's furrever home.  Rest in Peace, Sophie; all of us loved your sweet face, your flirty personality, and your sisterly devotion.

    So sorry for your loss. We lost our Ivy to a clot this year - so sudden and there is nothing you can do. Sophie knew she was loved.

    Aw, that's so sad. I bet Shelby is all sad, too. It's hard to lose a sister. :-(

    So sorry for your loss. Even though Sophie didn't live with your, she was part of your extended family and I'm sure you'll miss her. It's good that she was cared for and loved until the very end. Hopefully Shelby finds a forever home soon.
