Terrible news.. Sounds like the exact same thing that happened to my dog years ago, the worst part is how sudden it all is

yeah... she's pretty great tbh. It's like they know that you've made their lives so much better.

yes. you must get another cat... only when you are ready though.

I remember the first time we let Meowzie stay in the house. She was sniffing around everywhere and climbing on everything and I got emotional because I thought 'she shouldnt be here, puss should'... but now i'm used to it

i mean, I still cry about it sometimes. I was in a popeyes with my dad and his gf the other day and i mentioned the lion king and burst out crying...

but yeah, time is a healer.

is there anyone home with you tonight? how are your kids feeling?

What a really sad thread this is to read, I am really sorry to hear of the loss of your cat.
They become a a member of the family and it is awful when this time comes.
I have a Dog and I dread this day coming.
Take care and I am thinking of you.

Amy Jade 27-12-2014 11:06 PM
Awww I'm so sorry to hear this, hope you and the rest of your family are ok. As you say, anyone with pets know they become part of the family pretty much and it's incredibly hard to say goodbye.

For what it's worth you've obviously been a great owner and put the cats welfare first and most of all you've made your cats 9 years comfy and content which as pretty much paradise for them.

...aww jeez Lily, I am so, so sorry..:sad:..that really does suck and how quickly it all happened as well..poor guy, he was obviously struggling so much.....as much as you loved him, he loved you too and you gave him 9 happy years..that's a huge lifetime of happiness Lily...and I’m sure that he felt loved for every single day of those years and couldn't have been a happier cat to be a part of your family...:hug:...

Genuinely sorry to hear this Lily. It is so difficult to lose a beloved pet. Try to console yourself that you gave him/her a good life full of love and care, comfort yourself with your memories, and go out and get another pet as soon as you're over grieving, to lavish all that love and affection you have on.

He has seen it a lot in older cats, and sometimes in younger ones, but he says there's really no road back from it. He said that he hadn't left his side in all the time he was there, and there had been absolutely no improvement, so the kindest thing was to put him to sleep.

I can go in tomorrow morning to say goodbye. He was already anaesthetised when the vet rang, so he wanted to just put him to sleep without waking him so as not to cause him any more pain. Needless to say I've been crying ever since. Anyone with pets will understand.

Thanks all for your kind thoughts. x
Oh gosh i was almost in tears reading this, i'm so so sorry for your loss lily :sad:

Exactly this. He was 100% fine yesterday morning, then suddenly he was terribly ill. Vet told me that animals hide it for as long as they possibly can, which is why there are not any symptoms until they are almost too far gone..

I am grateful for my vet.. he is very dedicated, and I know he would have done everything possible.. He said he even tried some new measures because he was younger than the ones who usually present with this kind of thing.. but nothing was helping him.

The family want to go into the SSPCA centre today... I'm not sure if it is too soon, but the kids have never had a house without a cat.. and it doesn't really feel like a home without one.. and knowing there are homeless cats sitting in a shelter, maybe it is the right thing to do.. My head is a bit of a mess right now..

So sorry for your loss Linda :hug:

lily. 28-12-2014 12:26 PM
We went to see him.. the vet told us all the stuff he had tried... after he called me yesterday he took the breathing tube out and was about to try one last thing before he put him to sleep, but he said that as soon as the tube came out, he just stopped breathing.. poor wee soul.. At least he is at peace now.

We did go out to the animal shelter.. there are so many pets there needing homes.. there was one wee girl kitty who was particularly friendly.. so we might adopt her.. I will keep you all posted...

Thanks so much for all your kind messages x
