Old Cat Lost Weight, Won't Eat, Vet At A Loss

So sorry you ahve to do that. I took Pictures of Yoshi the night before he was Pts. The worst part is going to the Vet knowing what you are going for. If you ever need to talk you can Pm me. I just had to have 2 Cats Pts in the last 6 Months.

I am so sorry.

I am so sorry it has come to this - could you not give him a few more days on the meds so your dad can be with you both? It is such an awful decision to make, and you will both be in my thoughts.

I am so sorry. It is a hard decision to make but we make it out of love. If Clover is suffering then he no quality of life and that is not what we want for our babies. You will be sad for a long time so allow yourself to grieve and cry as much as you need.

Aww, man... Send him my snuggles.

Unfortunately my dad won't be home for another 2 weeks. His mom just had quadruple bypass surgery and even though he very much would like to be here, he needs to be elsewhere for right now. He is not much of a pet person but I know he became very attached to Clover. I'm sure he will handle it better than me though.

I have a 3.5 hour interview on Tuesday and the last thing I want to be doing right now is studying. What really sucks is after this today I have to go shopping for something to wear to it . I don't know why things have to happen all at once.

All morning and all last night, I just kept watching him. I did grab a few pictures. I guess I'm trying to soak up as much of him as possible.

Thanks everyone.

Big for you and Clover

Honey, you have no idea how sorry I am. I sat there & watched Damita die, many of the same symptoms. Her paws were swollen/hurt, she wouldn't eat, lost weight, no longer played. Breathing when she purred was difficult her last few days.

Reading this thread has ripped that hole in my heart open. I really truly do feel so awful for you, because everything you say is like a mirror of what Damita & I went through.

If you need anything, PM me....it's 2 weeks tomorrow since I lost Damita Mae.
