A Final Act of Love for April: Providing a Peaceful Rest for a Best Friend

For 13 years, April had been more than a pet; she was a best friend and a source of emotional support. From waiting at the door when her owner came home to sitting and listening during the hardest times, their bond was truly special. April bravely dealt with benign cysts for years. When the cysts became cancerous, April’s condition deteriorated and her owner could not bear to see her formerly strong girl suffer.

Her owner’s financial situation had been very difficult over the past year. As a full-time caregiver for her mother, who had been in and out of the hospital, April’s owner had to take off of work quite frequently and could not afford to provide a peaceful passing for her beloved kitty. Her owner shared, “It would make such a large difference to me that I can give April a peaceful rest instead of her suffering until her last breath. It makes me so depressed to see her in pain and knowing that she’s tired and suffering, and that I can’t do anything about it.”

When her owner thought all hope was lost, in stepped Angel’s Watch. April’s owner was connected to Angel’s Paws, a dedicated team providing end-of-life care to pets in need. April deserved to pass peacefully, surrounded by love and without pain, and Angel’s Paws was able to provide this service thanks to the gracious donors to Angel’s Watch. Her owner shared, “Your support, no matter the amount, will make a profound difference in ensuring April’s final moments are filled with peace and comfort.”

After a lifetime of unwavering companionship to her family, she was afforded the dignified and compassionate ending she so greatly deserved. Because of Angel’s Watch donors, and the loving team at Angel’s Paws, April was able to cross the Rainbow Bridge surrounded by love.
