A few here know about this but my oldest cat had to be laid to rest
yesterday. On Thursday he was acting not himself and by around 2am he
was struggling to breathe so we went off to emergency. I had to leave
him, but long story short, by morning he'd gotten much worse and if he
wasn't on oxygen he struggled. Vet at first thought congenital heart
failure but after xrays wasn't sure if it was his heart or his lungs
because both were suspect. After the radiologist came in she said to
rule out heart failure and try to treat his lung disease she needed more
tests. In the meantime he was going downhill because oxygen and Lasix
wasn't helping. I had to make a decision quickly which way to go and I
decided to end the suffering. He was only 15. He has left a
Shamrock-shaped hole in my heart. "Goodbye good boy, mommy already
misses you so much".
