We have read your entire post and we are deeply moved by your love and devotion for your precious cat and by the suffering you are both enduring, and we join with you now in bringing every detail before our heavenly Father in Jesus' name.
We want you to know that your love for her is not small in God's eyes and she is not just a cat to Him either. He created all living creatures and He cares for them, and He sees the tender care you are giving. Proverbs 12:10 says A righteous man respects the life of his animal, but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel. Matthew 10:29 says Are not two sparrows sold for an assarion? Not one of them falls on the ground apart from your Father's will. And Psalm 36:6 says Yahweh, you preserve man and animal. He knows her by name, He knows every breath she takes and every cough and every moment she stares at you longing for affection, and He is near to you in this heartbreak as well. Psalm 34:18 says Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit.
We understand how painful it is to watch her struggle to eat and drink, to have irregular bowel movements, to struggle for breath, and especially to see that her purring, which was once a sign of her great affection, now triggers coughing so that she withdraws and lies alone. It is heartbreaking to feel helpless when the veterinarians say there is no treatment except comfort, and we hear your desperate cry that God alone can help her now. We also understand the burden of giving her four pills twice a day and the inhaler three times a day and the subcutaneous fluids, and the fear of hurting her or causing her distress, and the weight of every decision you must make for her.
We thank you for praying in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and confidence that He hears us. John 14:6 says Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. And Acts 4:12 says There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved. We are encouraged that you have come in that precious name.
Together we pray for you and for her.
Father in heaven, we come before Your throne of grace in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son and we lift up this beloved cat to You. You formed her and You have numbered her days, and not one moment of her life has been outside Your sight. Lord, if it is Your will, we ask that You would touch her body and bring complete healing and a full recovery. You are the God who heals and nothing is impossible for You. We ask that You would ease and take away any pain or discomfort she is in, that You would help her to eat normal food and drink water again, that You would restore regular bowel movements, and that You would open her airways and help her breathing. Lord, we ask that You would calm the inflammation and lesions in her lungs and the tumor in her brain according to Your mercy, and that You would allow her to purr and to cuddle again without coughing or fear. We ask that You would restore her joy and affection and comfort her sad heart.
Father, we pray for wisdom and steadiness for her owner. James 1:5 says But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. Grant steady hands and a gentle spirit as the medications are given, the pills and the inhaler and the fluids, that it would be done without hurting her or causing great distress. Give discernment for every decision regarding her care, when to continue treatment, when to seek help, and what is truly best for her comfort. Lead to a compassionate veterinarian who will come to the house if that time comes, so that she need not be terrified in a car or a clinic in her last moments, but may be at home surrounded by love. And above all, we pray that if it is not Your will to heal her on this earth, that You in Your mercy would take her peacefully in her sleep, without fear or suffering, and that You would guard her from prolonged pain.
Lord, we also lift up this dear owner who loves her so deeply. Your Word says in Philippians 4:6-7 In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Pour out that peace now. Comfort this broken heart, reassure that every desperate cry has been heard, and remind that You are close to the brokenhearted and that You collect every tear. Help to rest in Your perfect love and sovereignty, trusting that whether You bring healing or a peaceful rest, Your will is good and merciful.
We ask all these things in the mighty and merciful name of Jesus, trusting Your goodness and Your care for all creation, Amen.
We encourage you to continue to be the faithful steward God has called you to be, giving her the comfort care prescribed while seeking the Lord daily for wisdom. It is right and good to look for a mobile veterinarian now, before an emergency, so that you will have someone to call who can come to your home to assess her and to provide palliative care or, if needed, a peaceful passing at home. Keep a record of her eating, drinking, breathing and comfort to share with the veterinarian, and do not hesitate to ask for help from a trusted friend or veterinary technician to learn the gentlest way to give the pills and inhaler. Above all, keep resting in the Lord's presence with her, speaking softly, praying aloud over her, and letting her feel your love even when she cannot cuddle as before. She knows your voice and your love, even when she lies alone and stares, and God sees every act of love you show her.
We are praying that God will hear and answer according to His perfect will and that He will sustain you with His peace through every day ahead.
