Im so sorry this is a very sad post to have to make, completely devastating to write and for those who will read it.
My beautiful Damien died today.
He was only 20 months old, we just werent expecting it, he was healthy and so young and full of fun and not even fully grown yet.
I just cant believe im saying these words, my Damien my boy, its like its not real like hes coming back. Hes only been gone less than a day and i miss him.
He was just laying on the floor under the kitchen table when i got up to give them breakfast this morning.
I wondered why he didnt come for his food.
I went to where he was laying and i knew.
I cried. My husband cried. My children cried.
We still cry.
We took him to the vet and she started what she called a pre liminary exam, and almost straight away noticed his mouth, gums and tongue were blue tinged.
She was checking inside his mouth when she said she could see something in his throat. She got out some kind of long tweezers and pulled out a fairly large piece of hard green plastic.
She then told us she believed our boy had choked to death.
Oh dear God i never thought something like this could happen!
Why didnt i hear him? How does a cat choke? What did he choke on? My God what did my poor baby go through? My heart breaks for him he must've been so scared, and i ask again, why didnt i wake up and hear him?
Im so sad i cant bear it.
Im sorry this is a long post, i cant sleep, i just keep thinking.
