Both of mine were old. One was 21 and the other 16. I was fortunate to have them so long and neither suffered even though Noah had a very rapidly progressing cancer and could have. Now I have 2 7 month old kittens who are delightful. They don't replace Anna and Noah but they do keep it lively around here. |
Yeah. He really seems to like the prescription food. I fed him again and he ate a little and hasn't puked it up, so that's good. I asked the vet if he was in any pain, and the vet said no, that he was just nauseous feeling. If he was in pain, we would have had him put to sleep. I'm happy he's not. I don't want him to die in some vet office, where he's freaking out. I want him to die at home, where he's comfortable and with his family. It just kills me we can't afford the treatment, but it involves him staying in the hospital and getting all these expensive procedures.
This just feels wrong. He's a young cat (well, young-ish). This shouldn't be happening.
