Daphne, aka Francie, 2024
In writing a memorial for dear Daphne, we realize we can’t say it any better than Daphne’s person did when telling us of her passing. Here’s the note:
We adopted Francie (renamed Daphne), a beautiful scottish fold straight, from you back in 2017. She recently passed away after a long battle with immune mediated thrombocytopenia, and I just wanted to send you a note to say how grateful we were to have had her in our lives. She was the most special, wonderful cat we have ever had and we miss her dearly. In 2019, just two years after we adopted her, she was diagnosed with Immune Mediated Thrombocytopenia- her condition was so grave that our vet team and specialists estimated she only had weeks to live. She had such an incredible spirit that to everyone’s shock (and our absolute delight), she survived and thrived with treatment for four more years! She passed away recently due to complications of the disease, but enjoyed a very good quality of life for most of the time while battling the disease.
Thank you again for allowing us to give her a forever home. She was the most delightful, sweet cat and even though we wish she was still here with us, we are so grateful for the time we had with her.
