Rest in Peace sweet Beau

roscolaylamommy · 02-08-2013, 07:16 PM

Beau went to the bridge this evening. Although the last blog post/forum post was optimistic, Beau had been ailing for some time. We're guess that he developed some form of cancer. Over the past couple months, his energy levels had been decreasing along with his appetite. Over the past couple days Beau made it pretty clear that his time was coming soon. We spent today doing all of his favorite activities even though he was too tired to truly enjoy them. He went peacefully surrounded by his family and vet staff who loved him. I know that many people think he was lucky to have found us but I think it was more that we were lucky to have him in our lives. We will miss him greatly. Run free sweet boy! We will see you again someday.

I am so sorry to hear of Beau's passing. I always tear up when I hear one of us have lost a beloved family member. Just know in your heart that he his having the time of his life over the bridge romping and playing with all of our babies that have gone before him.

You went above and beyond to ensure that his remaining time was the best he could have. Bless you and him....

I remember following Beaus journey to you, his new family. He had a wonderful life and I know how difficult it is to lose him. God bless and comfort Beau and his forever family.

We are sad to hear of Sir Beau's passing. 'I hope I will grow old in such style one day' says Worm. We will miss him here on the forum and his blog posts. We are thinking of you and Mr. Fury and your whole clan. I bet they will be missing him too.

Our hearts are warmed when we think about how he traveled halfway cross the country and how u took him in to be part of your family. You have done a wonderful thing for him.

Probably not everyone here knows, but Beau was probably loved by an elderly man who then passed away. None of his family members wanted Beau and asked some questions here on the forum. As a result of All this, the Furies offered to take him in. I bet his previous owner is very grateful to you And all you've done.

So sorry to hear about Beau, my wife and I have followed his story from the beginning and were happy he found such a good family to take care of him. His story helped influence us to rescue our second basset Pickle.
