About a month ago our beautiful, seemily healthy and happy cat Winnie got sick. He had stopped eating and was breathing heavily. We went to the vet and she suggested he got hit by somebody or something which was causing the fluid in his lungs and the breathing. We gave him some pills, for a week and he just kept getting worst.
We took him a second time and they drained the fluid from his lungs and thought that he had either had cancer or heart disease. Heart disease was the better of the two since it might have been treatable. They took some blood tests and they all came back negative. We were optamistic.
The day the tests he came back, we were in the kitchen. Winnie had let out a terrible sound, collapsed and we thought he was dead. A couple of seconds later, he started gasping for air and came back to us.
We took him to the emergency clinic. They did an x-ray and found two cancerous tumors. They told us that it would be best to put him to sleep, he looked really awful and weak, a shell of his once perfect self, we said our goodbyes and put him to sleep. I am so glad that he gave us a chance to say goobye to him in a peaceful setting. His life was too short, but he was an amazing cat that changed our lives adn will always be in our hearts.
